Effects of the Addition of Sawdust Ash and Iron Ore Tailings on the Characteristics of Clay Soil
Published in Journal of Building Material Science
An evaluation of the effects of additives and firing temperatures on clay bricks characteristics was studied. The two (2) additives used were sawdust ash (SDA) and iron ore tailing wastes (IOTW), and the five (5) firing temperatures of 400o C to 1200o C at intervals of 200o C were applied. The fired bricks were tested for linear shrinkage, water ab...
