Question

what are the Assumptions, Risk, Constraints you're likely to face for the manufacturing of a plastic brick house. 1000 words .

Answer 1

In the present scenario there is a rigorous usage of plastic and its drastic disposal. Thus to maintain the living of Earth for our future generations , proper usage and its disposal plays an important role for every country. One of the major contribution is the manufacturing of Plastic bricks. Bricks made from soft plastic waste that can each withstand six tonnes of pressure and relentless rain could replace the clay bricks currently used to build rural homes in monsoon-prone countries such as India.

Talking about the assumptions involved in the manufacturing of plastic bricks is mainly that "Is the brick sustainable enough to bear the load capacity?" , " Will it harm the people living in the house or in other facility?" , "Is it eco-friendly?" etc.etc.

But Eco-friendly bricks are made from alternative materials that are considered ‘greener’ than the materials used in ordinary building bricks. Along with containing greener materials, the production process of these bricks releases less CO² into the air.

Risk is not there in the same as the technology is widely developed thus intervention of human is negligible in this case, also does'nt cause any health issues.

Some of the constraints that would be faced are:

1. Mortar would not stick, unless they are designed with specialized rough surface. Special binding properties would have been injected in to it.
2. As such they would have a limited lifespan due to degradation by UV. Hot climate or direct exposure to sun could make them soft. Extreme arctic weather would make them brittle. Or else, they would crack in several years due to thermal cycling.
