More about Fly Ash Bricks
Fly ash bricks are manufactured by mixing Fly Ash, Cement, Slag, Lime, and Gypsum. Usually, fly ash replaces 10% to 20% of the actual cement volume. Cast in a machine mold, they have a more uniform appearance and smooth finish. And also, Fly Ash Bricks Manufacturing is more environmentally friendly.
They are 28% lighter than regular clay bricks but have a greater than 40 MPA compressive strength than standard bricks. As a result, they are inexpensive and eliminate the need for plaster. And Fly Ash Bricks can reduce high construction costs and soil erosion.
Light in weight, Fly Ash Bricks are suitable for multi-story buildings because as the height of the buildings increases, the stress and strain on the foundation and structure decreases comparatively.
These types of bricks are being used worldwide, and especially in India, after the Government of India has reinstated using Fly Ash, instead of Clay Bricks, within a 100-mile radius of coal power plants.
