strength and stress–strain characteristics
Materials and Structures,Elsevier Pub
Abstract Strength and behaviour of cement stabilised
rammed earth (CSRE) is a scantily explored
area. The present study is focused on the strength and
elastic properties of CSRE. Characteristics of CSRE
are influenced by soil composition, density of
rammed earth, cement and moisture content. The
study is focused on examining (a) role of clay content
of the soil on strength of CSRE and arriving at
optimum clay fraction of the soil mix, (b) influence of
moisture content, cement content and density on
strength and (c) stress–strain relationships and elastic
properties for CSRE. Major conclusions are (a) there
is considerable difference between dry and wet
compressive strength of CSRE and the wet to dry
strength ratio depends upon the clay fraction of soil
mix and cement content, (b) optimum clay fraction
yielding maximum compressive strength for CSRE is
about 16%, (c) strength of CSRE is highly sensitive
to density and for a 20% increase in density the
strength increases by 300–500% and (d) in dry state
the ultimate strain at failure for CSRE is as high as
1.5%, which is unusual for brittle materials. Authors: B. V. Venkatarama Reddy • P. Prasanna Kumar Link |

Compression:
Journal of Materials in Civil Engg,ASCE
Abstract: Rammed earth wall is a monolithic construction and constructed by compacting
processed soil in progressive layers in a rigid formwork. There is a growing interest in using this
low embodied carbon building material for use in buildings. The paper deals with investigations
on the strength and structural behaviour of storey high cement stabilised rammed earth (CSRE)
walls. Review of literature on strength of CSRE is highlighted. Results of the compressive
strength of CSRE prisms, wallettes and storey high walls are discussed. The strength of the
storey high wall was compared with those of wallette and prism strengths. There is nearly 30%
reduction in strength as the height to thickness ratio increases from about 5 to 20. Ultimate
compressive strength of CSRE walls predicted using the tangent modulus theory is in close
agreement with the experimental values. The shear failures noticed in the storey high walls
resemble the shear failures of short height prism and wallette specimens. The paper ends with a
discussion on structural design and characteristic compressive strength of CSRE walls. Authors: B. V. Venkatarama Reddy and P. Prasanna Kumar Link |

MASONRY INTERNATIONAL Journal of the British Masonry Society Vol 22, no 2 pp 39 - 46
Abstract:
Rammed earth is a monolithic solid wall formed by compacting processed soil in progressive layers. It is an energy efficient technique finding applications in load bearing walls. This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation dealing with compressive strength and elastic properties of cement stabilised rammed earth, and cement stabilised rammed earth brick (REB) masonry. Compressive strength and stress-strain characteristics of cement stabilised rammed earth in dry and saturated condition were evaluated and compared with the properties of REB masonry. Results indicate that the compressive strength of cement stabilised rammed earth and the stabilised REB masonry is sensitive to moisture content of the specimen at the time of testing. The wet strength is about 60% of dry strength. Rammed earth shows 20 - 30% higher compressive strength when compared to the strength of REB masonry. Rammed earth specimens show shear failure as apposed to vertical splitting cracks in masonry. Cement stabilised rammed earth shows large strain bearing capacity (1.5 - 2%) or ductile post peak response as compared with any of the brittle materials like burnt clay brick, concrete etc.

| 354. | 13-10-2009 | Cement stabilised rammed earth. Part A: compaction
characteristics and physical properties of compacted cement
stabilised soils
Materials and Structures,Elsevier Pub
Abstract :Rammed earth is used for load bearing
walls of buildings and there is growing interest in this
low carbon building material. This paper is focused
on understanding the compaction characteristics and
physical properties of compacted cement stabilised
soil mixtures and cement stabilised rammed earth
(CSRE). This experimental study addresses (a) influence
of soil composition, cement content, time lag on
compaction characteristics of stabilised soils and
CSRE and (b) effect of moulding water content and
density on compressive strength and water absorption
of compacted cement stabilised soil mixes. Salient
conclusions of the study are (a) compaction characteristics
of soils are not affected by the addition of
cement, (b) there is 50% fall in strength of CSRE for
10 h time lag, (c) compressive strength of compacted
cement stabilised soil increases with increase in
density irrespective of moulding moisture content and
cement content, and (d) compressive strength
increases with the increase in moulding water content
and compaction of CSRE on the wet side of OMC is
beneficial in terms of strength. Authors: B. V. Venkatarama Reddy • P. Prasanna Kumar Link |

Energy and Buildings,Elsevier Publishers
A B S T R A C T:
Rammed earth walls are low carbon emission and energy efficient alternatives to load bearing walls.
Large numbers of rammed earth buildings have been constructed in the recent past across the globe. This
paper is focused on embodied energy in cement stabilised rammed earth (CSRE) walls. Influence of soil
grading, density and cement content on compaction energy input has been monitored. A comparison
between energy content of cement and energy in transportation of materials, with that of the actual
energy input during rammed earth compaction in the actual field conditions and the laboratory has been
made. Major conclusions of the investigations are (a) compaction energy increases with increase in clay
fraction of the soil mix and it is sensitive to density of the CSRE wall, (b) compaction energy varies
between 0.033 MJ/m3 and 0.36 MJ/m3 for the range of densities and cement contents attempted, (c)
energy expenditure in the compaction process is negligible when compared to energy content of the
cement and (d) total embodied energy in CSRE walls increases linearly with the increase in cement
content and is in the range of 0.4–0.5 GJ/m3 for cement content in the rage of 6–8%. Authors: B.V. Venkatarama Reddy , P. Prasanna Kumar Link |
