Abstract: The purpose of this study is to incorporate waste products in the construction sector for sustainable and environmentally friendly production. The following investigation provides an alternative way of utilizing quarry waste in the construction industry. In this study clay bricks are produced using granite and marble slurry waste. Different mix proportions are prepared and bricks are cast. These brick samples are tested for compressive strength and water absorption based on IS code and an optimum percentage of replacement is obtained. The results showed that 10-15% replacement gives maximum compressive strength and minimum percentage of water absorption.
Keywords: Brick, Clay Brick, Granite Slurry, Marble Slurry.
