Abstract
The present exploratory experimental work has been attempted to study the yield behaviour of two-way square reinforced flyash brick slab (RBC) compared with that of RCC slab. The RBC slab has been prepared using flyash bricks partially replacing concrete in RCC slab. The bricks are bonded using concrete of same compressive strength as that of control RCC slab. Reinforcement is provided embedded within the concrete bond between the brick units. Thus, it reduces the weight of slab and achieves economy. All the slab specimens with edges discontinuous and simply supported are tested under concentrated load applied at its centroid. Load-carrying capacity at onset of crack and till failure, Load–deflection characteristics, crack pattern, and failure mechanism of the slabs have been studied.
