Mechanical properties of cement sand brick containing sawdust as partial fine aggregate replacement

Cement sand brick is a type of brick made from a mixture of cement and sand. The characteristics of sand are the main reason why it is in great demand in the construction industry. On the other hand, sawdust is a solid waste from industrial sector mainly generated from sawmills that is usually dumpe...

The characteristics of sand are the main reason why it is in great demand in the construction industry.
