The objectives of this research are to study the production step proper ratio physical properties mechanical properties and thermal insulation of concrete blocks mixed with waste ceramic powder. The ratios of concrete block mixed with waste ceramic powder include Portland cement type1: quarry dust: waste ceramic powder equal to1: 6.8: 0.2 1: 6.7: 0.3 1: 6.6: 0.4 1: 6.5: 0.5 and1: 6.4: 0.6 by weight. Water per cement ratio are 0.6 by weight. The concrete block samples were castedby the general production as same as the ordinary concrete blocks and were tested follow TIS.58. From the results the best amount of waste ceramic powder which put into concrete block is 1: 6.7: 0.3 of ratio. The proper ratios of waste ceramic powder can decrease the density or weight and increase the thermal insulation efficiency of concrete blocks. However the high amounts of waste ceramic powder effect to decrease the mechanical properties concrete blocks that are lower than TIS.58 standard.

The research aims to investigate the possibilities of crushed oyster shell (OS) not have to go through the process of burning as a substitution cement for concrete blocks. The cement was replaced with crushed oyster shell not process burning (OS) at 0% 10203040 and 50% by the weight of the binder. After that the concrete blocks were tested to determine the compressive strength and moisture absorbed of the concrete blocks cured for 7 142856 and 90 days The result showed that the compressive strength of the concrete blocks which replaced cement with OS (at the proportion of 10% by the weight of the binder) at 28 days had the compressive strength and water absorbed accordance with the TIS 58-2533 on non-load bearing concrete blocks.Moreover the concrete blocks which replaced cement with OS at the proportion of 20 % and 30 % had the compressive strength equivalent to 28 days compressive strength of TIS 58-2533 standard at 56 and 90 days respectively and decreased when the percentage in addition to OS in concrete blocks of 40 and 50 %. Tested results also showed that the water absorbed of concrete blocks increased when the percentage of replacement of OS in binder increased at 10 20 30 40 and 50%. The economical of concrete blocks it has manufactured unit cost is 2.60 baht. Whereas the concrete block containing crushed oyster shell at 10-30% it has manufactured unit cost at 2.12-2.44 baht respectively.

This research aims to test the properties of concrete block mixed with basalt fragment as aggregates in products. The mix ratios of Portland cement type1 : basalt fragment : water are 1 : 10 : 0.7 1 : 10.5 : 0.7 1 : 11 : 0.7 1 : 11.5 : 0.7 and 1 : 12 : 0.7 by weight. The concrete block samples were mixed and casted in 7 x 19 x 39 centimeter by the concrete block molding machine. The concrete block sample testing follows the TIS 58-2533 standard on non-load bearing concrete blocks. From the results the density compressive strength and thermal conductivity of concrete block mixed with basalt fragment are lower than the common concrete block. In addition the water absorption and volumetric change are higher than the common concrete block. The optimal ratio in this work is 1: 11: 0.7

The objectives of this research are to study the production step proper ratio physical properties mechanical properties thermal insulation and sound insulation efficiency of concrete blocks mixed with coconut shell ash. The ratios of concrete block mixed with coconut shell ash include Portland cement type1: quarry dust: coconut shellash which equal to 1: 6.8: 0.2 1: 6.7: 0.3 1: 6.6: 0.4 1: 6.5: 0.5 and 1: 6.4: 0.6 by weight. Water per cement ratio are 0.6 by weight. The concrete block samples were casted by the general production as same as the ordinary concrete blocks and were tested follow TIS.58. From the results the best amount of coconut shell ash which put into concrete block is 1: 6.7: 0.3 of ratio. The proper ratios of coconut shell ash can decrease the density or weight and increase the thermal insulation and sound insulation efficiency of concrete blocks. However the high amounts of coconut shell ash effect to decrease the mechanical properties concrete blocks that are lower than TIS.58 standard.

This research aims to produce scrap page kaolin of brick construction. The kaolin clay ratio of 100: 0 80:20 60:40 50:50 40:60 20:80 and 0: 100 by volume Add mixed with rice husk and rice 15 percent by weight A total of seven ratios. According to standard tests or TIS. 77-2545 ordinary story brick building. The moisture content and water absorption is increasing. While density Thermal conductivity resistance flexural and compressive strength tends to decrease. The best ratio of 80:20 by volume with compressive strength 43.16 kg / cm 2 and 24.93 percent water absorption. Criteria standard of TIS. 77-2545 requiring compressive strength not less than 35 kg / cm2 and water absorption must not be higher than 25 percent. Can be used in the manufacture of brick construction including building decorative wall can be developed into products. Because skin color and beautiful
