DESIGN, SIMULATION AND SUSTAINABILITY ANALYSISOF BRICK MAKING MACHINE; INNOVATION MANAGEMENT

Design is a creative activity whose aim is to establish the multi-faceted qualities of objects, processes, services and their systems in whole life cycles. Therefore, design is the central factor of innovative humanization of technologies and the crucial factor of cultural and economic exchange .Design is also a tool for innovation in mature markets where technological developments bring only marginal improvements to the end-user, and in low tech markets. Good design can increase sales revenues and profit margin by differentiating products and services, making them more attractive to customers ‘Innovation' is the successful exploitation of new ideas. It is the process that carries them through to new products, new services, and new ways of running the business or even new ways of doing business. No construction is possible without bricks. Since many centuries brick making has been practiced by human beings. Presently, bricks are easily made by using machines, using new technologies. Generally two types of bricks are manufactured, namely concrete block machines and clay brick machines. Different types of automatic machines use different methods to make bricks. The raw materials used by the machines for making interlocking bricks are fly ash, sand lime, iron oxide, lime sludge, quarry wastes etc. The focus of this project is on the production of concrete bricks, specifically interlocking bricks which offer a speedier, cost effective, environmentally sound alternative to conventional walling materials. It is based on the principle of densification of a lean concrete mix to make a regular shape, uniform, high performance masonry unit. Concrete Block Technology can be easily adapted to suit special needs of users by modifying some design parameters such as mix proportion, water to cement ratio and type of production system. It is an effective means of utilizing wastes generated by stone crushers, The scope of this work includes, to design,, to model, to analysis the materials and to aspect of the project tasks, resource, time frames and possibly their associated cost .Management involves identifying the mission, objective, procedures, rules and manipulation] of the human of an enterprise to contribute to the success of the enterprise. This implies effective communication: an enterprise environment (as opposed to a physical or mechanical mechanism) implies human motivation and implies some sort of successful progress or system outcome
