Abstract
This study investigates the reuse of Construction Demolition Waste (CDW), Eggshell Powder (ESP), and Manufactured Sand (M-Sand) in clay brick manufacturing. The aim is to develop eco-friendly and cost-effective bricks by partially replacing clay with these materials. To study properties of brick making material, survey availability of waste material in the environment and selected materials to be partially replaced to making of clay brick. Before replacement of waste materials, analysed the properties of physical and chemical behaviour of clay as well as the waste materials. The novelty of this process, utilizing ESP, CDW and M-Sand for the partial replacement to clay. Replacement of waste materials to clay by ESP, CDW and M-Sand materials various combination. The modified composites of bricks made in standard procedure with reference to IS 1077: 1992. After casted bricks are dried and to analysed various tests such as compression test, efflorescence test, water absorption test and soundness test are done with reference to IS 3495: 1994 Part I to IV. Examine these test results data are compared with conventional clay bricks to find out optimum replacement of particular waste material that produce the maximum strength.
