How Rammed Earth is Transforming Sustainable Architecture: A Concrete-Free, Eco-Friendly Solution

[@kjartan3838]

I´m a 3rd year student in architecture in Iceland. I just wrote a thesis on rammed earth. i actually build the first SRE (stabilised Rammed Earth) wall, SRE has cement in it. The thesis did ok but we need more research in Iceland with our earth. It really all has to do with the binder, because we don´t have much clay in Iceland. But I really do believe that we can use Rammed Earth here in Iceland. Awesome episode, hope you do more about Rammed Earth. :)

Thank you! We made an episode about using lava in Iceland, because yes, we need to use what we have! Thank you for sharing 🙂

How does the compacted earth hold up to rain, or water environments?

This looks like The Grand Tour, but architecture instead of cars
