Reusing Plastic Waste for Construction by GelineGayleUgas is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document summarizes a study on using waste plastic as a construction material. The study conducted trials with different combinations of waste plastic and other ingredients, like powder and fly ash, to efficiently convert waste plastic into bricks. It was found that bricks made from LDPE plastic beads had the highest compressive strength of 13.69 N/mm2. Bricks made from a composite of LDPE and fly ash had a strength of 11.48-10.42 N/mm2, higher than conventional clay bricks which have a strength of 3-5
