Burnt clay bricks are one of the most ancient construction materials used in masonry work. The rapid use of clay for the production of clay-based bricks has led to cause serious problems related to the environment as it reduces the amount of natural clay. Researchers have used several waste materials that have similar characteristics to the natural clay for the replacement of clay for the production of waste-based clay bricks. Adopting that approach the problems associated with the reduction in the natural resources and disposal of such waste materials can also be minimized. The current experimental study aims to use an agricultural waste that is produced during the harvesting process of rice, i.e., rice straw. The effect of the addition of rice straw in the form of ash on the mechanical and durability performance of clay-based bricks has been evaluated by replacing the clay content of the mix with different proportions (2, 4, 6, 8 and 10% by weight of clay) of ash. The results of the study have revealed that the rice straw ash can cause a positive effect on the overall performance of bricks when compared to the controlled bricks.
