Abstract
With the increase in population the use of natural resources increases day by day. The aim of this project is to study the use of Industrial sludge for making bricks. Different tests on bricks were conducted for analysing the strength of bricks. This study incorporated the use of latex sludge with Fly ash. Compressive strength, Water absorption, Hardness and Soundness of bricks were conducted on bricks. Compressive strength and water absorption of brick is satisfactory while using Fly ash with latex sludge. Hardness and soundness property of brick was found to be similar to common building bricks. Using Latex sludge as brick ingredient is a best method of its disposal.
