Material and Methodology

A. Waste plastics

By definition the plastics can be made to different shapes when they are heated.in closest environment it exists in
bags, food and drinking containers, and they are become waste material. Accumulation of such wastes can
result into hazardous effects to both human and plant life. Therefore, need for proper disposal, and, if possible,
use of these wastes in their recycled forms, occurs. This can be done through process of plastic management. Waste
management in respect to plastic can be done by recycling. If they are not recycled then they will become big
pollutant to the environment as they not decompose easily and also not allow the water to percolate in to the soil
and they are also poisonous.

B. River sand
Sand is naturally occurring granular material which is composed of mineral particles and finely divided
material. The composition of sand varies depending on the local rock conditions and sources, but the most
constituent of sand in inland continental settings and non-tropical coastal region is silica dioxide (SiO2) in the
form of quartz. The second commonly used sand is the calcium carbonate, for example aragonite, which has
mostly been created, over the past half billion years, by various forms of life, like coral and shellfish. Sand is now
used in all the construction process.
C. Frit Glass
-is a ceramic composition that has been fused, quenched, and granulated. Frits form an important part of the batches
used in compounding enamels and ceramic glazes; the purpose of this pre-fusion is to render any soluble and/or
toxic components insoluble by causing them to combine with silica and other added oxides.
- fritted glass help reduce glare, cut cooling costs, it can also give the exterior a distinctive look with patterns
ranging from simple shapes and gradients to intricate designs

II. Testing Procedure

- To know the quality of plastic sand bricks and plastic sand paver blocks following tests can be performed. In these
tests some are performed in laboratory and the rest are on field.

-Compressive test
This is done to know the compressive strength of the bricks. This is also called crushing strength of bricks.
Generally five specimens of bricks are taken to laboratory for testing and tested one by one.

- Water absorption test

In this the bricks first weighted in dry condition and they are immersed in water for 24 hours. After
that they are taken out from water and they are wipe out with cloth. Then the difference between the
dry and wet bricks percentage are calculated.

- Hardness test
In this test a scratch is made on brick surface with steel rod (any hard material can be used) which
was difficult to imply the bricks or blocks were hard. This shows the brick possess high quality.

Methodology

-the study applies data gathering through literature review. This pertains to the actual research conducted by
the researchers that contains evidences to support the concept of the proposed study.

III. Conclusion

-The research methodology and design indicated overall process of the flow of the research for the given
study. The data sources and data collection methods were used. The overall research strategies and
framework are indicated in this research process from problem formulation to problem validation including
all the parameters. It has laid some foundation and how research methodology is devised and framed for
researchers. This means, it helps researchers to consider it as one of the samples and models for the research
data collection and process from the beginning of the problem statement to the research finding. Especially,
this research flow helps new researchers to the research environment and methodology in particular.
