Friends, you are looking at one of the oldest building practices in all of human civilization. Worked well five thousand years ago, and can still be useful even in the 21st century.
It isn't efficient. in most places you can't use bricks like this for a reason. They wear down quickly. A few decades, and the adobe brick walls start cracking, etc. and the house will fall. Also, it gets wet quickly. Oh, and I haven't mentionted mice and rats. They love these.

Awesome work and thanks for sharing! Here in Kerala, it's difficult and costly to procure a compressed earth block (CEB) press (like the Mardini MB-2 out of Karnataka or the TARA Balram-MI out of New Delhi; so we're leaning towards earthbag and adobe for constructing a small Secure Storage / Seedbank / Storm Shelter. I like the dome roofs with the earthbags too! ECHO community has a great article on building Earthbag Seed Banks.
The house build from this bricks is very healthy, it will be cool in Hot season, warm in cold (winter and rainy) season. The big problem is Mouse, Mice. size of the wall is large width, i.e. minimum 18 inches. Ground and first floor may be constructed, not more than that. Plaster must be from this type clay which requires maintenance with interval of 5-8 years. Cement and sand plaster may be made with help of nails but plaster life is 15-18 years, after that remove plaster and once again make plaster. But any it is environment friendly bricks and home no wastage which can be reused. In kannada language (Karnataka one of the State of Union of India), the soil is called as "HALU MANNU" (HALU name or type of soil, MANNU means soil.)
@Sabah Zarid namaskara 🙏, HALU-MANNU means a variety of soil (mud), noto halu =milk. In variety of mud, halu, lu pronounciation is differrent from milk but in english use same alphabets for both. Lu= ಲು, Lu=ಳು
That's cool! If you live in a cold winter climate you can make the hole an underground garden it will always have a consistent temperature if you make a transparent roof you can plant anything tropical at cold weather, or you can make a pond. 😎
To t he made his brick earth with sandy topsoil which contains little clay. because if the answer is yes it means that I can make bricks with my sandy soil ?
I AM MAKING MINE WITH GRASS, I have 1/2 an acre of grass and my house is so hot in the summer that I am determined to go this route. I love the idea of the brick. I was going to just pour it on top of the cement roof. Thank you Gracias from Mexico
You would want to create fires clay tiles for the roof. Perhaps mud would work in place of clay but the important part is being able to fire dry it to retard water and make it hard enough to withstand erosion.
That's the recipe used for CEB or compressed earth blocks, adding about 6% cement to traditional mud bricks increases material strength and weather resistance
Hello thanks for the vedio .. Can you please say , after placing the brick from wooden box , after how many days will it be fine to replace to build a home ?
It will depend on how long it takes to dry. We turn it on its side in 3 days, and then it's completely dry in another 4. As long as it's hot weather, it will dry in 7-8 days and is ready to use.

Hey,We have them make bricks of pure clay or a little sand, and mix with it soft wheat straw, dung or animal hair, or rice straw, and it must be burned well, until it comes out in the end white or yellow, not red like this, I hope you benefit from this information, I am looking for the way to make pottery, I want to know what they add to the clay to become a den, and there is no one to answer, I wish you a happy year for everyone greetings 🌹,
I have a question. Do you need to heat the bricks in an oven or can they just bake out in the sun? I heard they need to be heated/baked or else if rain comes they will turn back into dirt.
God I almost walked outside to do this forgetting it's 17° outside Edit: tip when making any type of bricks agitation is good on the mold to get air pockets out for extra strength
I'm in QLD and ive used yard clippings, dead and live grass all with success. Straw is hella expensive because of the drought so I feel your pain my dude. Just empty your mower catcher into the mix and youre good to go. Made some about 2 years ago that have been left in the rain and when theyre dry they are stupid strong. (to avoid wear and tear obviously make a cover of some kind)
I would add only sand if you're planning on firing the bricks, but I would use only straw or dry debris. Rocks can make it very heavy. I've been doing cob for a long time and rocks haven't been a major issue, but I'd use the rocks for cement as an aggregate.

Can I use wood strips rather than straw?
Same question. Straw isn't something I can find laying around the woods here
@@jq7323 try it, I don't see why not. Personally I would use strips of bark. Do you not have nettles or shrubs you could use?
If it’s too stiff I wouldn’t recommend it must be skinny and flexible
Also get some green grass cut it and tie each one with some string and allow it to die off slowly or put near a fire
@@theoneandonly15 maybe plastic cut to real small
You should write peepal farm or Robin on the bricks🤪😁☺😀
is it possible to make the roof mud like laying thin logs across and then mixing straw and mud across it
Sure but don’t expect it to last or be water proof.
You would want to create fires clay tiles for the roof. Perhaps mud would work in place of clay but the important part is being able to fire dry it to retard water and make it hard enough to withstand erosion.
Soo do I just let dry out in sun or do I have to bake them? plz say sun plz
Shade. Try it and see how it goes.

My bricks seems to be wearing away at the edges pretty quickly, not holding together to well
