The purpose of this project was to test the effectiveness of the Cellular light weight concrete (CLC) blocks .In the period of 21st century the major problem we are facing is the emission of greenhouse gas i.e., carbon dioxide from various sources to this context the emission of carbon dioxide in the bricks manufacture process have been recognized as a significant factor to global warming. The aim is now to solicit toward the greener environment. The use of cellular light-weight concrete (CLC) blocks gives an appropriate solution to building construction industry along with environmental preservation. In this paper cellular light weight concrete blocks are casted with different proportion to check its properties such as compressive strength, density, water absorption. Cellular light weight concrete gives better thermal insulation, sound insulation, durability, light weight and uniform size and shape.
