Cracks in buildings are of common occurrence developed whenever stress in the component excstrength. This stress caused by external forces dead, live, wind, seismic loads and foundation setor induced internally due to thermal movements, changes, chemical actions, weathering actions resshrinkage or expansion of the bricks, mortar, con
due to corrosion of reinforcement etc. render the sunsafe. The other causes may be due to fault of sdesign. Fly ash brick, a building component haseect on these cracks that can be avoided manufactured and used properly.
