• 1. STRENGTH AND FRACTURE OF EARTH-BASED AND NATURAL FIBER-REINFORCED COMPOSITES

  » ABSTRACT     This study examined the mechanical properties of earth based materials that are relevant to the future development of affordable housing. Earthcrete structures were produced by mixing various proportions of laterites, clay and cement, while natural fibre reinforced composites were produced by mixing earth based matrices with natural fibre (Straw). Mechanical testing showed that opti...Continue Reading »
