Red Clay bricks and Fly ash | Cement Bricks





The advantages of using fly ash brick are, the brick carries good comprehensive strength, provide better thermal insulation than red clay bricks, cheaper compared to clay bricks and are environment friendly. ... They replace clay which has all nutrients for good agriculture.


Differentiate between Clay Bricks and Fly Ash Bricks

The characteristics that differentiate between these bricks are –
 

  • Fly ash bricks are of cement color while the colour of Clay bricks differs from burnt red to light brown depending on the type of clay used for manufacture of the bricks.

  • Fly Ash bricks are cast in moulds hence are always of uniform shape. Clay bricks are handmade causing slight difference in their shape and size.

  • Fly Ash bricks have a very smooth finish hence plaster is not required on the bricks to create a smooth surface. Clay bricks require plastering.

  • Clay bricks are more porous than Fly ash bricks.

  • Fly ash bricks are lighter in weight and less costly than Clay bricks.

  • Fly ash bricks are made of waste materials which come from the combustion of coal in thermal power plants. Clay bricks are made of clay which is collected from fertile land or the top soil. This is the prime reason that makes Fly ash bricks more preferable than Clay bricks.
