Abstract: The disposal of fly ash is an environmental challenge globally, and the only viable solution for its mass disposal is its use in the construction industry, especially for brick production. Hence, the substantial growth in ...

Abstract: Masonry walls resist both in-plane and out-of-plane forces through the bond between the brick unit and mortar. Moisture content or saturation level of the brick unit at the time of construction is one of the key contributing ...

Abstract: In this paper, a mathematical model is developed to predict the fly-ash brick compressive strength using three easily measurable parameters such as water absorption, initial rate of absorption, and dry density. This model ...
