Slide 2:- Introduction

Plastic is non-biodegradable and causes pollution

Aim:- Convert plastic waste into useful bricks


Eco-friendly, cost-effective, and sustainable solution

Slide 3:- Objectives

1. Reduce environmental plastic waste


2. Produce light weight, durable, and thermally insulated bricks
3. Replace conventional bricks with green alternatives

Slide 4:- Advantage

1. Recycling of plastic
2. Lightweight, thermally insulated
3. High strength, low cost
4. Useful in earthquake-prone areas
5. Reduces need for fertile clay soil

Slide 5:- Disadvantages

1. Weak bonding with mortar


2. Deforms under load or heat
3. UV degradation and flammability
4. Not suitable for heavy structural load-bearing
Slide 6:- Methodology

1. Collection – Waste plastic from various sources


2. Batching – Sorting & drying
3. Burning – Controlled melting
4. Mixing – With sand and additives
5. Moulding – Into brick shapeS
6. Curing – Air or water cure

Slide 7:- Materials Used

1. Plastic (LDPE)
2. River Sand
3. Cement
4. Fly Ash
5. Water

Slide 8:- Tests Conducted

1. Compressive Strength
2. Water Absorption
3. Efflorescence
4. Soundness
5. Crushing

Slide 9:- Design & Quantity Estimate

1. 1 BHK = ~15029 bricks


2. Mix ratio used: 1:3:6 (cement:sand:fly ash)
3. Plastic content ~20% by volume
Slide 10:- Cost Estimation

1. Total Cost: ₹54,668


2. Cost per Brick: ₹4
3. Economical vs clay bricks

Slide 11:- Applications

1. Raised Gardens
2. Benches & Park Furniture
3. Food Forest Play Parks
4. Walls and Partitioning

Slide 12:- Conclusion & Future Scope

1. Effective use of plastic waste


2. Eco-friendly, low-cost construction material
