This study is devoted to investigating the influence of aluminum wastes on the properties of ceramic bricks and their potential as additives for improving the physicomechanical characteristics of the materials. The aim of the research is to evaluate changes in the strength characteristics and microstructure of the obtained samples. For this purpose, compressive strength tests and microstructural analysis using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were conducted. The distribution of chemical elements in the surface layer and brick structure was determined by spectral analysis. Frost resistance tests were also carried out. The results showed that the inclusion of aluminum wastes affects the strength, density, and porosity of the bricks. The obtained data confirm the possibility of partial replacement of traditional raw materials with aluminum wastes to enhance environmental sustainability and economic efficiency in the production of ceramic building materials.
