Abstract |
|
Fly ash is generated in very large quantities, especially by thermal power plants. A large deal of research has been channeled out for effective usage of fly ash in the construction industry. Utilization of fly ash in manufacturing brick is one such matter which is being examined by many research students and technologists. The purpose of the present work is to investigate the durability and water absorption features of fly ash bricks made up with different percentage of lime (L), local soil (S), Fly ash (FA) and Glass Powder (GP). The experiments were led by both Pressure molded fly ash bricks. It was found that none of the L-S-FA bricks satisfy all the demands of standard codes. While some of the bricks satisfy the provisions in respect of volume level only the L-S-FA (40-0- 60) bricks satisfy the requirement of Indian Standard Code in respect of strength as well as water absorption characteristics. |
