The Unconfined Compressive Strength Properties of the …

earth blocks. Moisture content of compressed earth blocks decreases over the time [8] as shown in (Figures 3 & 4), so it is important to determine the rate of moisture content of the compressed earth blocks, since that the high rate of moisture content may cause a swelling of compressed stabilized earth blocks, resulting in the loss of strength ...

DURABILITY OF LIME STABILIZED EARTH BLOCKS

The main drawback of earth construction is the rapid deterioration of the material under severe weather conditions. The objective of this work is to improve the behaviour of stabilised blocks of earth blocks against water attacks. The blocks manufactured with one type of earth were tested in compressive strength as dry blocks and after immersion, in …

What Soils Work for Compressed Earth Block Production?

Organics are good for agriculture but not for making compressed earth blocks. The reason is that organic matter continues to breakdown over time while sand, silt, and clay are much more stable and will not rot away. We generally need to dig 8 – 10 inches down to get to the subsoil that is free of organics. Scraping the topsoil off a building ...

Stabilised Compressed Earth Block Production | SpringerLink

To produce compressed earth block of thickness 100 mm, with a dry density of 1800 kg/m 3 or more, using a manual machine, the compaction stroke length of about 60 mm is essential. The human effort required to produce this CEB can be calculated by dividing the force required by the force amplification provided by the toggle …
