Abstract

The study has demonstrated the potential of integrating waste glass as a suitable partial replacement in brick production. The test confirmed that this material when used and produced accurately can provide competitive, durable and sustainable blend in the the production of bricks, without necessarily replacing the core materials such as cement and coarse sand. In conclusion, the findings demonstrate that alternative materials, such as recycled glass, possess considerable potential for integration into sustainable construction. Transforming waste and underutilized resources into functional building products aligns with global sustainability goals, enhances resource efficiency, and offers cost-effective solutions for the construction industry.
