Abstract:

Sugarcane bagasse ash (SBA) , is utilized to developed light weight bricks-that serve a purpose of solid waste management and energy efficient alternative low cost construction material. To replacing the clay bricks, with that in mind a research was conducted by utilising (SBA) with cement and sand. The research involved the preparation of five mix proportion, which are (15% sba+65% sand+20% cement, 20% sba+60% sand+20% cement,25% sba,+55%sand+20%cement, 30% sba+50% sand+20% cement,35%sba+45% sand+20% cement) and bricks are casted. After casting the series of test carried out in accordance with recommended Indian standards to determine water absorption capacity (I.S 3495(part-2)(BIS-1992b)) , compressive strength as per (I.S 3495(part-1) BIS-1992a)and efflorescence (I.S3495(part-3) (BIS1992-c)). The s bricks are 225×110×70 mm non modular size.
