Rammed earth you definitely need to be careful of the humidity and mitigation internal humidity is going to be important. Good technique though for arid/desert climates.
Timber Frame + external insulation with anairtight building envelope is a really good construction method that will be energy efficient and last a long time.
- robbedpeter 5y agoWith the right clay mixture, rammed earth can be made more or less waterproof like brick, or you can make actual fired rammed earth bricks. Adding graphene flakes can significantly improve the structural qualities, and added carbon black can increase thermal conductivity (heated flooring) or provide em shielding. There are lots of materials to play with and mix up for structures.
