In today’s world, the construction sector must contend with a number of challenges on account of factors such as increasing urbanization and diminishing natural resources. More ecologically friendly building materials are being produced by industry as a result of increased awareness of the effects of climate change. Among other possible substitutes, rice husk ash (RHA), sugarcane bagasse ash (SCBA), and bamboo leaf ash (BLA) are already being used in the production of eco-friendly building materials like BIO-BRICKS. This article takes a look at a product called Bio-Bricks, which is made out of agricultural waste. Brick and other types of masonry, environmentally friendly concrete, insulation, reinforcing materials, particleboard, and bio-based polymers are the materials that are employed. Key selection factors were how well it is known and how widely it is used in contemporary building applications. The primary focus of this research is on common materials, the continued use of which has a detrimental impact on the natural world. According to the findings of the study, the utilization of agro-waste in the production of sustainable building materials was successful due to the fact that the products satisfied the standards for buildings. Therefore, items made from agro-waste may be used in place of conventional building materials to achieve sustainability on several fronts, including the economic, environmental, and social.

Keywords: Sustainable bricks, EQUEST, Ansys Fluent, Thermal comfort, Building energy saving.
