Experimental Study on Building Materials of Low-Energy Rammed Earth Houses in Anji of Zhejiang

The rammed earth building possesses superior indoor thermal environment and durability.At present,China is lacking in scientific quantitative study on rammed earth building materials,which hinders the development of rammed earth construction.Based on tests and the consideration of building characteristics in different regions,this paper probes into the physical properties,thermo-physical indexes,mechanical properties and modifications of rammed earh building materials,so as to make effective improvements to the traditional rammed earth building materials and give full play to the low-energy performance of rammed earth construction.
