Lime Hempcrete Composites Based on Unfired Binders. A Review

Circular Economy and Sustainability
Abstract Hempcrete has emerged as a viable and environmentally sound building material based on hemp lime mixture, whose properties render it a low Embodied Energy and Carbon (EE and EC) building material. Additionally, it allows a hempcrete building to achieve low Operational Energy and Carbon (OE and OC) by moderating indoor temperature and
