A REVIEW PAPER ON EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF STABILIZED MUD BLOCKS BY PARTIAL REPLACEMENT OF CLAY WITH CEMENT
Abstract
Traditional clay bricks have long served as reliable construction materials, offering commendable structural stability and durability when applied correctly. These bricks boast a rich history spanning centuries and enjoy extensive familiarity among builders and architects. Nevertheless, the conventional method of manufacturing clay bricks, involving kiln firing, exacts a substantial toll on energy resources and exacerbates environmental concerns through the emission of greenhouse gases. This process not only contributes to air pollution but also significantly contributes to the ongoing challenges of global climate change.
In response to these critical sustainability issues, the emergence of stabilized clay blocks represents a pivotal advancement and innovation in the exploration of alternative construction materials. This innovative approach seeks to address the intrinsic limitations of conventional clay bricks by introducing a more environmentally conscious and responsible approach to brick production. Stabilized clay blocks, characterized by their reduced reliance on energy-intensive firing processes, stand as a promising avenue for mitigating the ecological impact associated with traditional brick manufacturing.
