It builds the building block from M-Sand& Quarry Dust and waste plastic. compressive strength when contrasted with fly debris The blocks or building blocks are produced by blending Mblocks. By utilization of plastic sand blocks, the water sand and Quarry Dust, squander plastic by warming at 200◦c. assimilation presence of antacids was profoundly decreased. It is a development strategy in assembling the block. In this Inferable from various benefits further exploration would review, squander plastic has been utilized for the readiness of work on quality and strength of plastic sand blocks. Plastics plastic blocks. The compressive strength ought to be find out are secret weapons in round economy and reusing after the by utilizing Compressive Testing Machine. The water retention finish of helpful life. of plastic blocks diminished with expansion in the rate substitution of sand and M-Sand of the plastic blocks. These 1.1 Interlocking Blocks or Lego Blocks Bricks are light weight and financially low. Also, plastic blocks are having more strength when contrasted with regular Interlocking blocks are the enhanced form of conventional blocks. bricks. Each block is constructively designed to lock itself to other block around without the use of mortar. The self-locking Key Words: Manufacturing, Plastic Bricks, Using Waste is achieved using lock mechanism. Based on the design, Plastics, M-Sand, Quarry Dust. shape of the mechanism changes and the complimentary lock is provided on the opposite side of the bricks. Load 1. INTRODUCTION transfer is achieved by gravity. Plastic is one of the everyday expanding helpful as well as a perilous material. At the period of scarcity, plastic is viewed as extremely helpful yet after its utilization, it is basically discarded, making a wide range of risks. Plastic is nonbiodegradable that remaining parts as a risky material for more than hundreds of years. Plastics overall are among the materials utilized in the cutting edge designing items in the worldwide market today. Plastic comprises of many engineered and semi-manufactured natural mixtures which could be formed into various strong shapes as a result of its flexibility property. The amount of plastic waste in Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) is growing quickly. It is assessed that the pace of extension is twofold for like clockwork.

LEGO blocks are like 2 adjoining pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. Each block has a projection at one end and a depression at the other. The projection of the block fits in to the depression of the next so that they always align perfectly. 1.2 Benefits of Using Lego Blocks          

Today, it is beyond the realm of possibilities for any essential area to work effectively without use of plastic beginning from farming to ventures. In this way, we can't boycott the utilization of plastic yet the reuse of plastic waste in building developments ventures are viewed as the most practicable applications. Plastic soil block has more benefits which incorporates cost productivity, asset proficiency, decrease in outflow of ozone depleting substances, and so on, Plastic sand block is otherwise called "Eco-Bricks" made of plastic waste which is generally hurtful to all living organic entities can be utilized for development purposes. The harms from
