A brick is major component for building work. Bricks are manufactured by grinding or crushing the clay in mills and mixing it with water to make it plastic. This paper presents a parametric experimental study, by utilization of Hypo Sludge and Silica Fume in brick manufacturing by replaced clay and sand to increase the properties of brick. Silica Fume is taken as constant of 5% and Hypo Sludge is replaced with 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% for each proportion that have been calculated. The mechanical properties of brick are investigated. These bricks were tested for compressive strength, water absorption, bulk density and efflorescence. The test on brick is according to IS: 3495-1992.
