Abstract - In many foreign countries, interlocking brick
divider components, customary burnt clay bricks are the foremost basic building materials for houses development. Be that as it may, the quick development in today's development industry has obliged the gracious engineers in looking for a modern building technique that will result in indeed more noteworthy economy, more effective and solid as an elective for the ordinary brick. In a tropical nation like India the burnt clay brick is the foremost fundamental building fabric for development of houses. It is detailed that the prerequisite of bricks for development movement sums to be more than 140 billion numbers yearly.
masonry is rapidly becoming a preferred alternative to traditional bricks for environmentally friendly buildings. The researchers have always challenged to make interlocking brick light weight, low cost and improve the performance against aggressive environment. An experimental effort made in this concern. The experimental study gives the results of light weight interlocking brick based on mixed material variation for Dimension, Weight Test, Water Absorption Test, Compressive Strength Test and Density testing were carried out and the test result is compared with standard interlocking brick specimen which were subjected to prior research in the laboratory by using varying percentage of fly ash, stone dust with different mix proportion. In comparison of standard interlocking bricks specimen with light weight interlocking bricks has some advantages such as high compressive strength, less density, durability and low cost. It is eco-friendly. After the several researches project involving the strengthening and reducing the weight of interlocking bricks by using fly ash in the interlocking bricks. Then the test has shown improvements in strength, density, durability compared to standard interlocking brick specimen and Light weight interlocking bricks. The benefit of using fly ash is used to reduce the weight of interlocking bricks. The brick is moulded with dimension of (300 x 150 x 125mm) with curing continuously for 28 days. Then the brick was finally tested using a compression testing machine. The fly ash ash gives more compressive strength, less density and durability as compared to the standard interlocking brick specimen.
1.1 The aim of study To do experimental study of light weight interlocking brick based on mixed material variation design.
1.2 The objective of study 1. To produce light weight interlocking brick. 2. To determine optimum compressive strength of light weight interlocking brick. 3. To determine water absorption of light weight interlocking brick. 4. To determine density of light weight interlocking brick.
1.3 The scope of study The proposed interlocking light weight bricks allows for a quick and cost effective construction. It’s over comes the conventional clay bricks, which couldn't bear the stress as they cannot transfer the seismic load across the structure equivalently. And act as a good earthquake resistance structure. It’s allowed exposed brick wall construction and gives good aesthetic view, improved constructability, performance and cost as well resulting to alternative for sustainable construction industry.
Key Words: Interlocking Bricks, Fly Ash, Compressive Strength, Water Absorption, Density.
1.INTRODUCTION As per G20 2024 report India has emerged as the fastest developing major economy within the world. And together with that India's populace is developing quickly and is right now the foremost populated nation within the world. For India's developing economy and populace requests to boost the public infrastructure speculation, an rise in family venture in genuine bequest and development industry.
2. METHODOLOGY 2.1Introduction of Methodology The first step in studying is to schedule your study time. The activities were planning due to time required to make sure the product will be completed in schedule time. The point of the technique inquire about is to attain the destinations of consider as expressed in this chapter.
A wide variety of materials are utilized within the development industry. When considering their application in
