description The increasing of human growth population has led to the surge of the waste material. The waste material can cause serious problem to the environment. The waste materials can be reduced by processing them in construction materials such as brick. For environmental protection and sustainable development, extensive research has been conducted on production of bricks from waste materials. Palm oil clinker is a by-product of palm oil industry which normally being dumped abundantly as waste which caused to the undesirable effects to our environment sustainability. The oil palm clinker that is highly porous and lightweight in nature is suitable to be used as a fine aggregate replacement. The objective of this work is about the properties of sand brick with clinker as partial replacement for fine aggregate with ratio of 15% with rice husk of 10%, 20% and 30%. The sand brick with a mix ratio 1:6 (1 cement, 6 sand) were designed based from the JKR standard. The overall number of samples is 256 bricks including the control samples. The brick undergoes air curing and water curing for 3, 7, 14 and 28 days. The sand brick were tested to find its compressive strength, flexural strength, density and water absorption. From the finding of both compressive and flexural strength at the 28 days of curing, the optimum sample is the sample with ratio of 15% clinker with 10% rice husk. In the water absorption test, the sample with the highest percentage of rice husk which is the brick with 30% rice husk reached the highest water absorption. This result proved that the higher percentage of rice husk increase the water absorption in the brick.Based on the results analysis, it can be concluded that the clinker and rice husk can be used as partial replacement for fine aggregate in the making of brick. However, the strength achieved from this brick might not be same as the control brick. Through the study, it can be concluded that the best ratio for the fine aggregate replacement is 10% clinker with 10% rice husk. For the curing method, the air curing is the best method to use.
