About this document

Engineering Properties of Stabilized Earth Bricks by alberto_soto_79 is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document presents research on using lime and rice husk ash to stabilize soil for producing compressed-stabilized earth bricks as an alternative to fired clay bricks. Laboratory tests were conducted to evaluate the compressive and flexural strength of the stabilized soil mixtures used to make the bricks. The results showed that adding lime and rice husk ash improved the strength of the bricks, with the best ratio being 1:1 of lime to rice husk ash. Additional testing evaluated the effect of adding sand
