        abstract = {Concrete is used extensively, and the price of conventional materials is rising daily as well. Thus, when making concrete, it makes sense to use the optional materials. The study focuses on the coarse aggregate in concrete. This study examines the use of Jhama brick, or crushed brick aggregate, in place of coarse aggregate. One optional source of coarse aggregate is Jhama brick. Bricks known as Jhama are made by overfiring. Because of their irregular shape, bricks can be used as coarse material in some areas where it is expensive or impossible to find stone aggregate. There's a chance that these abandoned bricks are a secret source of fine aggregate. It either totally or mostly takes the place of the conventional substance. In m35 grade of concrete, we substituted coarse aggregate in ratios of 0%, 5%, 10%, 20%, 30%, and 100%. Eighteen concrete samples are cast, eight of which have crushed jhama bricks in them. Both fresh and hardened cement concrete are subjected to testing, such as compressive strength tests, following seven and twenty-eight days of curing. Its 20% replacement is the best due to its strength and economy, which is why sufficiently loaded structures employ it. The results show that the aggregate made from Jhama brick aggregate in concrete had a higher strength than that of regular concrete.},
