| Abstract: |
| Our aim is to study and modify the design and characteristics of dry stacked interlocking bricks. As we are moving towards fast and environment friendly construction. The manufacturing process of the ordinary bricks includes burning which is hazardous to our environment. We will modify the shape to overcome the problems of diagonal cracking, and surface cracking of dry stacked interlocking bricks. |
| What is the unmet need in society that your idea will fulfill ? |
| Our project will allow the construction industry to manufacture bricks without burning which will be beneficial for the environment. It will reduce the use of mortar in construction. It will also accelerate the construction process and require less technical labor for construction of the facility. |
| Who needs it ? How many would benefit ? |
| It can be used widely in the construction of houses which will be good for construction by every class of society. |
| How will the solution works |
| The bricks can be made on site. The phenomenon used for construction will be interlocking of dry stacked bricks with modified shape which will be even easier to install and will have enhanced mechanical properties. |
| Who are your competitors ? How is your solution different |
| Brick Manufacturing Industry is the main competitor. Our bricks doesn't require burning nor does it require mortar. As some interlocking bricks are available in the market with complex shapes but our shape and interlocking phenomenon is different which make us superior. |
