ABSTRACT
The provision of good quality housing is recognized as an important responsibility for welfare of people in a country. A question of evolution of the use of bricks was partly based on their estimated properties, applied building techniques and on the characteristics of brick production. In this investigations, the agricultural and industrial residue rice husk ash into the Soil and Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) stabilized blocks are studied. However there are undesirable properties such as loss of strength when saturated with water, erosion due to wind and/or rain or poor dimensional stability.
INTRODUCTION
Human society has been using mud for shelter since the days of ancient cultures. The local availability and ease of processing makes it the most energy efficient building material. Stabilization of soil becomes essential to attain adequate compressive strength. Lot of researches are happening around the world on alternating walling material.
Present studies
Stabilized soil blocks use locally available soil with cementetious materials. Rice husk ash an excellent pozzolanic material. About 20 million tons of rice husk ash an agro waste is produced annually worldwide.
