01 Part 01 PRESENTATION //SLIDE www.website.com INTRODUCTION
www.website.com YOUR LOGO PRESENTATION The increasing accumulation of plastic waste poses significant environmental challenges, particularly due to its non-biodegradable nature, which contributes to land and marine pollution. One innovative approach to addressing this issue is incorporating plastic waste, such as plastic cups and cellophane, into brick manufacturing, reducing reliance on traditional raw materials while promoting sustainability. Studies suggest that plastic waste can influence brick properties, such as strength, water absorption, and thermal resistance, with mixed results depending on the type and amount used. Some researchers found that plastic-infused bricks offer benefits like enhanced durability and reduced weight, while others highlighted potential trade-offs, such as decreased compressive strength. Further research is needed to optimize plastic proportions and determine the long-term feasibility of these bricks in real-world construction applications. Introduction

SWOT analysis
Table 1. Compressive Strength Test : Table above shows the compressive strength test, all brick types—plastic cup bricks, cellophane bricks, and control bricks—demonstrated similar durability by withstanding an applied weight of 120 kg without any cracks or damage. This suggests that incorporating plastic waste materials into bricks does not compromise their ability to bear weight under this load.

Table 2. Crack Resistance Test (Drop Test or Impact Test) : The crack resistance test (drop or impact test) was conducted to assess the durability of different brick types at varying drop heights. At a 1-meter drop, no cracks were observed in any of the bricks. When dropped from 3 meters, a minor crack appeared in one control brick (A1), while the plastic cup and cellophane bricks remained intact. At a height of 5.5 meters, the control bricks developed moderate cracks, indicating lower impact resistance. The plastic cup bricks showed slight cracking in one trial (C2), but the rest remained undamaged. Notably, the cellophane bricks demonstrated the highest durability, staying completely intact across all trials. These findings suggest that cellophane bricks possess superior impact resistance compared to plastic cup and control bricks.

Table3. Water Absorption Test : The water absorption test demonstrated significant differences in how various brick types interacted with moisture. Control bricks had the lowest absorption rates (1.35% to 2.09%), indicating the highest resistance to water. In contrast, cellophane bricks exhibited the highest absorption (2.84% to 3.13%), suggesting greater porosity and susceptibility to moisture. Plastic cup bricks fell in between, with absorption rates ranging from 1.33% to 1.91%, making them more water-resistant than cellophane bricks but less effective than control bricks. These findings highlight the varying degrees of water resistance among the tested bricks, emphasizing the influence of material composition on moisture absorption.

Table 4. Density Test (Weight-to-Volume Ratio) : Control bricks had the highest density (3.263–3.416 g/cm³), making them the most compact and structurally robust. Plastic cup bricks exhibited moderate density (2.531–2.862 g/cm³), suggesting a balance between strength and weight. Cellophane bricks were the least dense (2.571–2.779 g/cm³), which may contribute to their increased flexibility and higher water absorption. These differences in density highlight the trade-offs between strength, weight, and water resistance in the various brick types.

Table 5. Heat Resistance Test : The heat resistance test also emphasized distinct differences between the brick types. Control bricks demonstrated slight darkening of color but structural integrity, demonstrating good heat resistance. Cellophane bricks had notable warping and opacity alteration, with one trial indicating cracking. Plastic cup bricks experienced the highest effects under heat, with severe warping and darkening but without cracking. These findings indicate that plastic cup bricks are less resistant to heat than cellophane and control bricks, and plastic cup bricks more so than the others.

Table 6. Correlation of plastic cup bricks and cellophane bricks : The study reveals a strong positive correlation between brick weight and water absorption (r = 0.957, p = 0.003), indicating that heavier bricks absorb more water due to increased porosity or material composition. Similarly, dry weight and wet weight after 10 minutes show an exceptionally high correlation (r = 0.996, p < 0.01), reinforcing the relationship between brick composition and moisture retention. These findings suggest that brick density and porosity play crucial roles in water absorption, which can impact durability and suitability for construction applications.

As dry weight increases, cracks tend to decrease, with a statistically significant relationship (p = 0.00). Similarly, higher water absorption leads to a reduction in brick volume, also showing a significant correlation (p = 0.00). Heat resistance has a moderate but significant effect on crack severity, where increased heat resistance results in fewer cracks (p = 0.05). However, the relationship between wet weight after 10 minutes and brick weight is not statistically significant (p = 0.09), indicating no meaningful difference. Likewise, density and heat resistance show no significant correlation (p = 0.45). Overall, dry weight, water absorption, and heat resistance have notable effects on cracks and brick volume, while wet weight, brick weight, and density do not significantly influence these properties.

In conclusion, the study highlights the significant impact of weight, water absorption, and heat resistance on the durability and performance of plastic cup and cellophane bricks. Heavier bricks demonstrated greater water absorption due to increased porosity, while dry weight was a key factor in crack resistance. Additionally, higher water absorption led to reduced brick volume, and materials with better heat resistance exhibited fewer structural failures. However, wet weight and density showed no significant influence on overall performance. These findings suggest that incorporating plastic waste into bricks can enhance certain structural properties, offering a potential sustainable alternative to conventional bricks. Further research is needed to optimize their composition for improved strength, durability, and construction viability.
