At the present time, the possibility of utilizing the renewable resources such as solar, wind, geothermal has been provided for us more than before, and development of this science is making progress. But those energies can be chosen as one of the renewable and alternative energies instead of fossil fuels which are cheap as possible and have fewer environmental impacts. Since no attention to economic issues lead to that the use of these energies be just for groups dedicated to specific segments of society. While many renewable energy projects are large-scale, renewable technologies are also suited to rural and remote areas, where energy is often crucial in human development. With population growth in today’s world, the need to the building has increased and to respond to this demand, the countries tend to use the industrial building materials and decline the use of indigenous and traditional materials. These factors in spite of increasing the energy consumption in the industry section; they can also raise the cost of homes and are considered as the barrier for users to obtain the basic needs of the life The objective of this paper is to investigate the using of plastic bottles as municipal wastes in the buildings, the key and positive characteristics of this product and the benefits obtained by using it in building. It also intends to compare the characteristics of some construction materials such as brick and concrete block with bottle wall

Keywords- plastic bottles, compressive strength, PET, fly ash, mud brick, etc
