Demolition activity plays an important role in the total energy consumption of construction industry European Union. The indiscriminate use non-renewable raw materials, consumption, and unsustainable design has led to a redefinition criteria ensure environmental protection. This article introduces experimental plan that determines viability new type material, obtained from crushed brick waste, ...

In the standard DNA brick set-up, distinct 32-nucleotide strands of single-stranded DNA are each designed to bind specifically to four other such molecules. Experimentally, it has been demonstrated that the overall yield is increased if certain bricks which occur on the outer faces of target structures are merged with adjacent bricks. However, it is not well understood by what mechanism such 'b...

The process of urbanisation contributes to the growth waste generation and causes environmental pollution. One most common plastic is polyethylene terephthalate (PET). This often used as mixed material in construction. use life-cycle assessment (LCA) a possible tool assess sustainability product long term. After analysing latest literature, it was found that study PET building materials one sus...

Effectively consumed plastic waste is an emerging technical and social issue for Australia. Adding into construction material ensuring minimised impact to the mechanical performance of could bring significant benefits. In this study, was mixed cement-stabilised rammed earth (RE) brick manufacture. Techno framework consisting compressive strength test split tensile derivation structural assessme...

Abstract In today’s world, most of the developing countries are trying to build houses with more durability and low cost. Compressed Stabilized Earth Blocks best option for building cost-effective sustainable houses. red bricks, cement is used as a binder but in CSEBs, there no requirement cement. A large amount pollution generated during manufacturing well construction burnt bricks. To overcom...

In Rwanda, the traditional fired solid bricks embody high fuel consumption and quantity of clay during their molding. Traditional are also heavy compared to perforated bricks. This study aimed at investigating performance made soil (CS) mixed with charcoal waste (CW) as an additive. The physical, chemical mechanical properties CS 0, 10, 30, 40 50% CW were determined. extruded manually inclusion...

Conservation of trees which belong to renewable natural resources in developing countries through judicious utilization building industry has been seriously left unattended over the years. The this unprocessed wealth materials could serve as one alternative constituents construction is now a global concern. Therefore, needs investigate strength and water sorption property wood waste partial rep...

Rapid development around the globe, increase of population and construction with latest megastructures have escalated demand for energy. The increasing ambient outdoor temperature requires mechanical air conditioners to maintain a comfortable environment within building, this contributes high energy consumption. Building good thermal conductivity properties passively reduces This experimental w...

This work presents an experimental study realized at the materials laboratory of the University of M’sila. It consists to vary the percentage of the pozzolanic admixture (waste bricks) in cement by the substitution method (partial replacement of the clinker by the calcined clay). The characteristics of cement at anhydrous state and the hydrated state (chemical composition, specific weight and f...

Introduction: Plastic waste is considered one of the common vital problems in developing countries such as Indonesia. One proposed alternative way to reduce plastic by reusing and recycling it into bricks. Eco-bricks are a form recycled that can be used an building construction material. Unfortunately, manufacturing workers do not ergonomically perform this work during their working hours. Ther...
