<br/><br/> In the present thesis, it is tried to utilize landfill waste in the manufacture of fired clay  bricks. The raw materials were characterized. Mixtures were prepared, where the waste was added to the clay in different percentages. The brick specimens for each mixture were molded, dried, and then fired. It is found that the replacement of 10 wt. % of the Egyptian clay as a raw  material in fired clay brick industry by the landfill waste fired at 800 C, is recommended for  its environmental and economical benefits, in addition to its improvement of brick quality
