Rammed Earth House Construction

Journal of Geotechnical Engineering, 1985
An elementary analysis for calculation of stresses in a rammed earth house is presented. The analysis permits calculation of safe wall height, and an examination of safety of these structures. It is observed that the usual wall thickness is quite safe; the thickness can be reduced by at least a third without endangering safety and this can lead to a ...

Rammed Earth Construction: A Sustainable Architecture

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2013
Abstract. Present concerns for sustainable development have led to a revival of Rammed earth construction using natural or recycled resources. In human history, rammed earth constructions has a long history and wide application. The rammed earth construction is a symbol of the coexistence between mankind and nature, and especially with today’s energy ...

Size Factor of Rammed Earth Specimen

Advanced Materials Research, 2014
This paper describes some of tests of mechanical properties of rammed earth which have been held at CTU in Prague. Influence of size of specimen was examined in two tests, conversion factor is counted. Size factor is discussed comparing to concrete, influence of layer depth is also mentioned.

Assessing the anisotropy of rammed earth

Construction and Building Materials, 2009
Rammed earth construction is an ancient technique that is attracting renewed interest throughout the world today. Since it is carried out by stacking layers of rammed earth, it is possible that the rammed earth material is anisotropic. This paper presents the first study of this anisotropy, carried out on two scales.

Rammed Earth: Construction Lessons from Experience

Practice Periodical on Structural Design and Construction, 2013
AbstractIf modern engineers devote careful attention to the environment of a project and study historical building techniques they can create more sustainable structures. Rammed-earth construction creates a thermal mass structure that cools the interior space during hot, dry summers and absorbs heat during cold winters. It is a historic building method
