        abstract = {The increasing consciousness of the environment among people worldwide has resulted in research on alternative construction materials, especially those that produce minimal waste output.    The production of stackable blocks from recycled plastic waste as a green construction process is the focus of this research. Recycling plastic not only enhances traditional construction materials but also reduces the damage plastic waste causes to the earth.    The interlocking block system with interlocking blocks is designed to be long-lasting, durable, and easy to install with different ratios of recovered plastic waste as a binder and filler. The mechanical and physical properties of the blocks were determined through testing through shear strength, water absorption, and lifespan. Composed of recycled plastic waste, the blocks are much stronger and less susceptible to water, thus, ideal for different building applications. The research is based on the premise that recovered plastic waste can substitute sustainable construction materials. The results explain how effectively waste can be recycled in the construction industry, thus, eliminating waste and directing the circular economy.},
