Fly ash is commonly used as a partial replacement for cement in concrete production, typically replacing 20-30% of cement. Fly ash reacts with lime in cement and creates a more durable binder, resulting in stronger, more durable concrete. Using fly ash in construction has several advantages: it increases strength and durability of concrete while reducing costs, shrinkage, and greenhouse gas emissions. Fly ash bricks can also be manufactured near thermal power plants since fly ash is generated in large quantities as a byproduct. These bricks have benefits such as lower costs than clay bricks and better resistance to water damage.

-THE MOST COMMON USE IS AS PARTIAL REPLACEMENT FLY ASH BRICKS FOR PORTLAND CEMENT USED IN PRODUCING CONCRETE. -REPLACEMENT RATES NORMALLY RUN BETWEEN 20% TO -FLY ASH BRICKS MANUFACTURING UNITES CAN BE 30% BUT CAN BE HIGHER. SET UP NEARBY THERMAL POWER STATIONS -FLY ASH REACTS AS A POZZOLAN WITH THE LIME IN CEMENT BECAUSE IT GENERATES MAIN RAW MATERIAL IN AS IT HYDRATES AND CREATES MORE DURABLE BINDER BIG QUANTITY. THAT HOLDS CONCRETE TOGETHER -GOOD DEMAND FOR FLY ASH BRICKS. -AS A RESULT CONCRETE MADE WITH FLY ASH IS MORE -TECHNOLOGIES ARE ECO-FRIENDLY,REDUCES STRONGER AND DURABLE THAN TRADITIONAL CONCRETE. WASTE AND DUST. -COST IS REASONABLE AS COMPARE TO HOLLOW AND CLAY BRICKS. ADVANTAGES :- A] IN TERMS OF USABILITY IN CONCRETE AND CEMENT MIXING OF FLY ASH WITH CEMENT, SAND AND WATER -HIGHER ULTIMATE STRENGTH -INCREASED DURABILITY -IMPROVED WORKABILITY -INCREASED RESISTANCE TO POURING OF MORTAR INTO THE MOULD SULPHATE ATTACK -REDUCED SHRINKAGE -ALMOST ZERO EMISSION OF GREENHOUSE GASES FLY ASH BRICK MAKING DRYING IN ATMOSPHERIC TEMPERATURE & PRESSURE MACHINE B] IN TERMS OF USAGE AS FLY ASH BRICKS -REDUCES EXCAVATION OF CLAY -LOW COST OF BRICK AS CURING FOR A PERIOD OF 28 DAYS COMPARED TO CLAY BRICK -LESSER CONSUMPTION OF MORTAR -NUMBER OF BRICKS REQUIRED PER UNIT VOLUME OF CONSTRUCTION IS REMOVING FROM THE MOULDS LESS AS DIMENSIONAL ACCURACY IS MAINTAINED -BETTER RESISTANCE TO WATER DAMAGE WITH FLY ASH / WITHOUT FLY ASH BRICKS FLY ASH JUHILI S , SHIVANI L , MICHELLE V , GAURI K , VIRANCHI S .
