Abstract:

Construction industry is gradually increasing through the whole of the world and it is consuming natural resource as raw materials for construction materials. Traditional way of producing clay brick without giving care for natural resource brought deficiency of natural resource. Now a day, plastics waste is also the big challenge for world on environmental impacts and hence alternative using Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) plastic waste brick for construction material is preventing environmental impact of plastic and in other hand saving natural resources clay soil. So, we try to finding efficient way to solve this problem of plastic waste. So we added this plastic wastes into the bricks and create the bricks by using plastic wastes. It is most economical solution present in the construction industry and it is also economical and environment friendly solution of the plastic wastes. Plastic brick is the form of brick manufactured from the combination of non - recyclable waste plastic with other constituents (sand, fly ash, etc.). In this research work we make a new type of brick (size 160x120x55mm) from plastic waste, fly ash and sand. We have prepared total 6 numbers of bricks by using single used waste plastic, sand and fly ash in different ratios. We have also tested the above prepared bricks.
