Includes bibliographical references (pages 36-37). Approximately 62.8 trillion kJ are consumed annually worldwide in the manufacturing process of traditional clay tiles. With this in mind, the goal of this project was to develop an eco-friendly alternative to clay tiles that maintain the ASTM building code standards. Through experimentation, a fly ash tile was produced that consumes 99% less energy in the manufacturing process than commercial clay tiles. The final product is a fly ash tile composed of two classes of fly ash, water, and several additives to strengthen the material. Standard ASTM tests were conducted. This fly ash tile is an energy efficient clay-tile alternative that excels in many mechanical properties. by Jaclyn Schein.
