INTRODUCTION
•MUD CONCRETE BLOCK (MCB) is a block manufactured using construction and demolition waste, quarry dust, granite fines and cement as stabilizer for soil.
•These constituents may increase the durability and enhance the strength parameters which are the drawbacks of conventional mud bricks.
•Mud bricks perform considerably better, in environmental terms, than burnt bricks.
•Mud bricks perform considerably better, in environmental terms than burnt bricks. They have significantly less embodied energy, contribute fewer CO2 emissions.
•It has been Utilized and investigated as a possible form of sustainable construction in the developing, and the developed, world.
•Mud brick construction is not a new technology and it dates back, in various forms, for several thousand years.
Aims and Objectives
•Identify alternatives to coarse aggregate for mud concrete block .
•Investigate the availability of the construction demolition waste in the developing work with India as benchmark.
•Summarize whether the aggregates alternatives are a viable engineering alternative.
•Investigate mud bricks block made with the alternative stabilizers and compare them, quantitatively, to mud concrete blocks for a mechanical properties: a) Compressive strength.
•Investigate whether there would be any social implications to the use of alternative to coarse aggregate
•Recommend future research.

LITERATURE REVIEW1.Mud and Earth construction [2]
Although mud and earth construction has been around for thousands of years it is important to ask whether it is still relevant today. Hadjri,etal. (2007) interviewed ten residents of earthen buildings about the following five key points:
Durability Affordability Living Conditions Aesthetics General Preference
2. A Sustainable Approach towards the Construction and Demolition Waste
While the disposal of debris is a challenge, on the other hand there is an acute shortage of naturally available aggregates for construction of buildings.

Reduction of this demand in a small way is possible with the reusing or recycling of construction and demolition waste generated from the construction activities.
3.Reusing and recycling potential of different C&D waste [8]
The items which are usable directly are screened out from the debris and put into the intended use without further processing or further energy input for conversion into the useful product.
This is possible, if sufficient precautions are taken while a building is demolished. There should be an effective deconstruction plan instead of just converting the standing structure into debris within minutes.
Unfired mud bricks have been stabilized with cement to overcome these short comings but the use of cement reduces the environmental differential between unfired bricks and fired ones.
CONSTRUCTION AND DEMOLITION WASTE RECYCLING FOR SUSTAINABLE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT.
C and D waste is generated whenever any construction demolition activity takes place, such as building, roads, bridges, flyover, subway, remodeling etc.
These wastes are heavy, having high density, often bulky and occupy considerable storage space either on the road or communal waste bin. It is not uncommon to see huge piles of such waste, which is heavy as well, stacked on roads especially in large projects, resulting in traffic congestion and disruption.
Continuous industrial development poses serious problems of construction and demolition waste disposal. There is critical shortage of natural aggregate for production of new concrete, and the enormous amounts of demolished concrete produced from deteriorated and obsolete structures creates severe ecological and environmental problem.

•This experimental study of Mud Concrete Block is prepared with C & D waste and quarry dust as a replacement for coarse aggregate and fine aggregate respectively with varying amount of cement as stabilizer.
•We achieved an average compressive strength of:Specimen A : 12.80Mpa (7% cement & 54% of c &d waste)Specimen B: 16.133Mpa (10% cement & 54% of c&d waste)Specimen C : 19.38Mpa (7 % cement & 27 % c & d waste)Specimen D : 24.766Mpa( 10% cement & 27 % c & d waste).
CONCLUSION
•The technique used by us to manufacture the blocks was Adobe which is environmental friendly.
•The maximum water absorption after 48hrs varied from 1.128% to 1.812%.
•A block which contained 7% cement and partially replaced was found to have the highest water absorption of 1.812% which is still under the permissible maximum limit of 10%
•These blocks don’t require any fuel to be burnt or electricity for the manufacturing and drying process.
•The above values of wet compressive strength are good enough for all type of buildings(>5MPA as per IS 2185-2005 for class grade c).
