To overcome the environmental issues related to pollution and energy problems, it is necessary to find out alternative material to replace clay in brick development. It is also required to reuse and recycle the products at the end of their lives. Use of agricultural waste as an alternative raw material in the manufacturing of fired clay bricks is attracting attention due to sustainability issues. This paper reviews the investigations carried out by various researchers on the use of agricultural residue as a partial replacement in the manufacturing of fired clay bricks. This study also emphasises on the economical value of utilisation of agricultural waste into useful products.
