Key words: Red mud Foamed Light Weight Bricks Building and Construction, Toxic effect, Environmental Impact, Application The possibility of product modification and area of extended applications were also discussed. Various physical and chemical parameters such as compressive strength, porosity, dry and wet density, leachability and vaporization of heavy metals, soda leaching, pH variations, efflorescence, radioactivity etc. The environmental impact on the durability was also evaluated with respect to its exposure to sunlight and moisture under different climatic conditions. The salient features of LWFB produced by heat treatment (1000-1200 0C) of admixtures containing red mud, fly ash and foaming agents were discussed. A novel concept of self expanding raw material mix for the formation of LWFB has been realized. The present study demonstrates the potential utilization of red mud for the production of light weight foamed bricks (LWFB) for building and construction applications.
