This research proposes the development of non-fired masonry units made of clay with the addition of cabuya fiber and Type I cement as an alternative to the conventional fired bricks. The main objective is to evaluate the physical and mechanical properties of the clay-based, non fired units with the addition of 10%, 15%, and 20% cabuya fiber and 25% Type I cement. Additionally, the research aims to contribute to the technical, social, and environmental fields. The soil for the study was obtained from the brick factory located at José Leonardo Ortiz District, Chiclayo Avenue No. 817, and its properties were analyzed for granulometry, plasticity index, and salt content. The cabuya fiber was treated to remove all impurities and ensure the required size. Subsequently, the units were prepared considering the mix design for the proposed bricks, incorporating 10%, 15%, and 20% fiber and 25% Type I cement. The units were then air-dried for 28 days, and tests were conducted to determine their physical and mechanical properties. According to the results obtained, conventional bricks have a weight of 2.8 kg, absorption of 20.2%, suction of 112 kg/cm², and compressive strength of 1.3 MPa. In comparison, the proposed masonry units have a weight of 3.6 kg, absorption of 18.65%, suction of 45 kg/cm², and compressive strength of 5.3 MPa. Therefore, it was concluded that the optimal dosage, based on the values obtained and the E070 standard, is the 20% cabuya fiber mix.
