Controlled Low Strength Material (CLSM), is a flowable fill which has been used as a trench backfill, sub base preparation etc. As material used in CLSM has a low strength, ingredient materials percentage is varied to prepare bricks in order to achieve more strength. Materials used are cement, Flyash, M- sand and Laterite soil with 0.7 w/c ratio. By varying material percentages 16 trial mix proportions were tested. Based on compressive strength test results bricks were casted by selecting four mix proportions. Strength parameters of CLSM bricks were tested. Brick having 20% cement shows high strength and all the bricks of different mixes satisfying IS standards and recommendation.
