Abstract
A proposal was developed to make bricks based on ground shrinkage of a company that is dedicated to the manufacture of cross-linked foams, the process consisted of first establishing the dimensions according to what is currently in the market, a reference target was determined with concentrations similar to an artisanal brick, immediately replacing the white concentrations for test A were 40% of tepojal, 30% of cement, 20% of sand and 10% of shrinkage and test B of 45% of Tepojal, 35% sand, 20% depletion, to evaluate the technical feasibility in the elaboration of the specifications of NMX-C-441-ONNCCE, such as compressive strength, water absorption and dimensions, as well as The density of the elaborated bricks, which was obtained as a result of that of test B is very viable for non-structural use, that is to say dividing walls, since it supports a load of 1000 kg, they are efficient to place them at weathering since the percentage of water absorption is 4%, as well as the economic feasibility, with a cost of $ 13.1.
