Seismic Behaviour and Strengthening of Rammed Earth Constructions
, 2023 The widespread use of earthen buildings can be accredited to the local availability of the raw material, sustainability of the building process, and low cost. Earthen structures suffer from high seismic vulnerability, resulting from the low strength of the material, high mass, and lack of engineering approaches in design and building.
