Bricks are one of the most used construction materials in Lima. However, most of these are made from clay. The bricks made with this raw material generate a great environmental impact, since for their manufacture the soils from which the clay is extracted are degraded. Also, to reach the required resistance they are burning in ovens emitting a large amount of CO2, damaging the families that they live around of these factories. This research aims to reduce the environmental impact generated by the manufacture of bricks by proposing an eco-brick with steel slag, PET recycling material, cement and water. Three mix designs were made. The carbon footprint was calculated for these designs and the clay brick to compare the environmental impact of each of them. The three designs proposed in this research reduced the environmental impact generated by the manufacture of clay bricks by more than 50%. In addition, mechanical tests were carried out on the elaborated specimens, showing that the proposed eco-brick is within the parameters of the E.070 for bricks for partitioning.
