Review of rammed earth construction

Design and construction guidance for rammed earth have previously been published in Australia, New Zealand, USA, Germany, Spain and Zimbabwe. In addition considerable experience also exists internationally. An extensive review of current literature was recently completed as part of the Dti project and is presented here. This review will form a substantive basis for establishing guidelines relevant to UK construction. In addition the review also presents summary and findings from past and recent UK rammed earth construction projects and also contains an extensive bibliography.
