Resumo

Industrial waste like fly-ash is mainly used as a good building material due to its low weight. But the main disadvantage of these bricks is its low compressive strength. So, a lot of research is going on to increase the strength of these bricks. Normal clay is used for making of bricks in a cheaper sense. So, a research is carried out to develop a new systematic procedure to produce a new type of brick which will have higher compressive strength than the normal clay bricks. Here the fly-ash is mixed with clay at different compositions, sintered at different temperatures and their microstructural analysis has been carried out to find out a solution to enhance its property.
