Influence of the clay on mechanical properties of construction made of rammed earth

Abstract

The article is focused on the monitoring of mechanical properties of rammed earth made from two types of clays. Due to a change in the composition of the mixture, there are changes in the material properties that are important for the design of the rammed earth structures. The resulting values of the properties of the individual are compared with each other. The mechanical properties of compression and bending compression are compared in the paper.
