Material Innovation On Red-Brick Making Without Burning For Home Industry Prosperity

Abstract

Brick making process has been hindered in the process of making that long because it should be burning again. During the combustion process is a growing problem of air pollution and the costs incurred to purchase a fairly expensive firewood. So we need to find a solution to solving this problem is by doing innovation or engineering materials with the addition of cement, sand, rice husk

ash, limestone and iron ore with a certain variation of the composition. From the analysis of the material all the material qualifies as an addition to the cement forming and physical quality test based on the highest compressive strength of the composition I = 52.60 kg/cm2 , the highest specific gravity test on IV = 2.60 kg/cm3 composition, porosity test lowest on the composition of the I = 15 %, all shapes and sizes according to the standard square is 190 x 95 x 50 mm . So the overall manufacture of bricks without fuel had already solved the length of time that the process of making a shorter 3 days, production costs is to be cheap Rp.196,84/brick, carbon dioxide gas pollution problems are avoided due to the burning of brick and quality produced in accordance with standards quality according to ISO and ASTM .
