Dissertation note: College of Industrial Technology: Bachelor of Engineering Technology major in Construction Technology Technological University of the Philippines, 2022 Abstract: The research project, "Effects of Perlite on Physical and Mechanical Properties Concrete Eco-bricks", was conducted to study the effects when perlite and plastic were added to the mixture in physical and mechanical properties. A 1:6 concrete design and various Portland cement, sand, and water combinations were used come in 5 different mix designs with perlite ratios of 2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, and 10%. To create eco-bricks with dimensions of 10x4x5 inches, combined with varying percentages of perlite with 2 percent shredded plastic in the class B mixture. The plastics used are made from shredded plastic waste from commercial or industrial sources, such as shampoo sachets, plastic wrappers, and other thin plastics with a thickness of 5 to 10 mm. A mined volcanic glass is used to make perlite. To create this product, the pulverized, sieved material is heated to 760-1100°C. Adding perlite to the concrete eco-brick improves its compressive strength and high-temperature insulation, with cement and sand that will help resist heat. Another aim is to incorporate plastic into the mixture to reduce the worst and most alarming issue of plastic waste, which adds additional strength and durability to the brick physical and mechanical property. The research sample is cured in 7, 14, and 28 days. After curing, the eco-bricks were subjected to compressive, water absorption, heat resistance, and time test testing. Eco-bricks were evaluated by 10 students in the field of civil engineering, 10 engineers (including those from the DPWH), and 5 faculty members. The following criteria is used to evaluate the product's acceptability: appearance, effectiveness, safety, economy, salability, workability. and durability. The total rating, determined by the evaluation's findings, is "High Acceptable. -- Author's abstract
