description The growing demand for construction materials, the search for sustainable and environmentally friendly alternatives, and the new vision towards a circular economy have led to the increasing use of agricultural waste to obtain new value-added materials. The present research sought to elaborate and characterize bricks manufactured with addition of different concentrations of rice husk ash (5%, 10% and 15%). The average content of silicon oxide (SiO2) obtained in the rice husk ash was determined by gravimetry and then the bricks were manufactured according to the established concentrations. The bricks obtained were evaluated by means of compression, absorption, and warpage tests according to the parameters established in the NTP-399.61 for concrete bricks. The results showed that the average content of SiO2 in the rice husk ash was 79.08%. Likewise, in the compression and absorption tests it was observed that the ash concentration influenced the compressive strength and the percentage of water absorption, showing in the first test that the Tto (5%) was statistically similar (p<0.05) to the control with 24.6 MPa. Furthermore, the second test showed the lowest value compared to the control with 5.24% of water absorption. In conclusion, we can say that the substitution of 5% rice husk ash showed potential to produce cement bricks according to the parameters established in the NTP-399.601.

La creciente demanda de materiales para la construcción, la búsqueda de alternativas sostenibles y amigables con el medio ambiente, y la nueva visión hacia una economía circular han hecho que cada vez se usen residuos agrícolas para la obtención de nuevos materiales con valor agregado. La presente investigación buscó elaborar y caracterizar ladrillos fabricados con diferentes concentraciones de adición de ceniza de cascarilla de arroz (5%, 10% y 15%). Se determinó por gravimetría el contenido promedio de óxido de silicio (SiO2) en la ceniza de cascarilla de arroz obtenida para luego elaborar los ladrillos según las concentraciones establecidas. Los ladrillos obtenidos fueron evaluados mediante las pruebas de compresión, absorción y alabeo según los parámetros establecidos en la NTP-399.61 para ladrillos de concreto. Los resultados arrojaron que el contenido promedio de SiO2 en la ceniza de cascarilla de arroz fue de 79,08%, así mismo, en las pruebas de compresión y absorción se observó que la concentración de ceniza influyó sobre la fuerza de compresión y el porcentaje de absorción de agua, mostrando en la primera prueba que el Tto (5%) era similar estadísticamente (p<0,05) al testigo con 24,6 MPa. De igual manera, en la segunda prueba arrojó el valor más bajo en comparación con el testigo, con 5,24% de absorción de agua. Como conclusión podemos decir que la sustitución de 5% de ceniza de cascarilla de arroz mostró tener potencial para la elaboración de ladrillos de cemento según los parámetros establecidos en la NTP-399.601.
