description The expanding population in the past decade has put an enormous strain on building materials sector, prompting civil engineers to find creative strategies for turning waste into viable assets. Employing such waste as an invaluable asset may contribute to financial savings on the disposal of waste, enhance safety and security for the public, encourage environmental awareness, and save restricted natural resources. The present paper is part of a larger analysis on the applications of bricks. The particular focus is on the use of different waste materials in the process of producing them. The mechanical and physical attributes of bricks provide recommendations for further study in this field. Further research is required for finding a cost-effective brick production method that utilizes less energy and generates a lesser number environmental pollutants. Brick kilns are asked to shift towards utilizing alternate fuels like methane gas or petroleum oil. Furthermore, research is required to determine how to fulfill the material criteria of the standard while safeguarding the environment, in particular view of a growing movement in the construction sector toward the use of low-cost, lightweight, and green construction supplies. Recycled waste materials from farms and factories can reduce environmental harm and fulfill the need for more economically efficient ways of building.
