Magnífico trabajo👏👏👏 increíble...

[@MUSICAVIVA-gn1gv]

Que calidad....donde dan capacitación de estas construcciones

[@leilatiu9721]

Anyway you use plywood? As the clay looks very smooth

[@nijhum6165]

So, i see you use two types of soil(also in this area only, as there is no fixed recipe for rammed earth mixer) and cement.
But what is the white powder thing you added at the end? Is it lime?
And what is the ratio of cement and white mix to soil.
Thank you

[@semmanstudio3466]

1% of white cement and lime for colour enhancing, otherwise the colour of the wall might be dominated by the gray cement.

[@leilatiu9721]

Maybe Facebook group to have information and sharing ideas?

[@MukeshMishra-qk3bi]

What is the ratio for rammed earth mortar prep ?

[@semmanstudio3466]

There is no fixed ratio, every soil type is unique, based on the clay content we shall design the ratio. We need to bring the clay to 15% in the final mix

Hi can you do a video on the corner forms? And how to add pipe clamps on corners? Thank you

[@semmanstudio3466]

Sure

[@lionsinthezoo]

@@semmanstudio3466 thank you

[@semmanstudio3466]

For your information, you have to fabricate the L-shapes with the help of a professional welder then add the clamps. Clamp details are the same as for the normal linear wall

[@barakathkareem5343]

Hi , actually how it gets bonded to the cement brick foundation without falling??

[@semmanstudio3466]

The load always acts vertically unless an external force acts on it. So you don't need that bond for a typical situation.
Better consult an architect

How is that the rammed earth wall has different shades n colours?

[@semmanstudio3466]

Different types of soil

How to waterproof rammed earth wall ?

[@semmanstudio3466]

If it's done properly, it won't be needing any water proofing

[@semmanstudio3466]

We don't use any water proofing agent

[@SenateurPalmer7]

Could we build a building with 4 floors with this technique?

[@da3belsmooth551]

Yes you just have to make the walls in the first and second floor thicker. It's stronger this way and you don't have to worry about problems in the future
