Effects of charcoal on physical and mechanical properties of fired test briquettes

Organic combustible additives are frequently used to generate porosity in fired clay bricks. This study aims to investigate the effects of charcoal addition to fired test briquettes on their compressive strength, water absorption, apparent porosity, bulk density, and apparent density. The test resul...
