Fly Ash Cement Bricks?

Fly Ash, a fine powder is a by-product of burnt coal in an electric generation power plant. It is a substance containing aluminium and silicon that forms cement in the presence of water. When lime and water are added to fly ash, it forms a compound that is similar to Portland Cement.

Characteristics of Cement Bricks

Fly Ash Cement Bricks are used for the construction of various types of buildings such as factories, warehouses, homes, power plants, etc. Basically, these bricks can be used in any kind of construction that is possible with traditional bricks.

Fly Ash Bricks (FAB) are compact with smooth surfaces and sharp edges. They are free from visible cracks, warpages, flaws, and organic matter, on average, their compressive strength is 7.5N/mm2. The water absorption capacity of these bricks is less than 15%.

5 Reasons to Use Fly Ash Cement Bricks

• Fly ash cement bricks are lightweight material in comparison to clay bricks. Less weight means less stress on the building, which ensures safety. Therefore, this makes it a suitable material for multi-storeyed buildings.
• They absorb less heat than normal bricks, keeping a building cool even in the Summer season. Therefore, it is suitable for Indian weather conditions.
• It has high compressive strength in comparison to normal bricks, aiding to less breakage and wastage during transportation.
• It absorbs less water as they are less porous compared to burnt clay bricks. This saves money on the water during construction and even keeps the building strong during the rainy season.
• A very less amount of mortar is required in construction because all bricks are machine made and are even in shape.
