Earth, in common use for architectural construction for thousands of years, has in the past thirty years attracted renewed attention as a healthy, environment-friendly and economical building material. What needs to be considered in this context? The manual Building with Earth, which has been translated into many languages, describes the building technology of this material. The physical properties and characteristic values are explained in a hands-on manner: with proper moisture protection, earth buildings are very durable, and in particular the combination with wood or straw allows a wide spectrum of design options. Numerous built examples demonstrate the range of applications for this fully recyclable material. Fifth and revised edition of the reference work on rammed earth construction With seven new and relevant international case studies Many drawings illustrate various construction methods

Hardback. Condition: New. Seit vielen Jahren zeigt sich eine wachsende Rückbesinnung auf den alten Baustoff Lehm, getrieben von dem Wunsch nach umweltschonendem Bauen und gesundem Wohnen. Was gilt es dabei zu beachten? Das Handbuch Building with Earth, das in viele Sprachen übersetzt wurde, stellt die vielfältigen Einsatzmöglichkeiten und Verarbeitungstechniken dieses Materials dar. Praxisnah werden die bauphysikalischen Eigenschaften und Kennwerte erklärt: Bei richtigem Feuchteschutz sind Lehmbauwerke sehr beständig, und insbesondere die kluge Kombination mit Holz oder Stroh erlaubt ein breites Spektrum entwurflicher Optionen. Zahlreiche gebaute Beispiele demonstrieren die breiten Anwendungsmöglichkeiten dieses vollständig rezyklierbaren Werkstoffs. Fünfte und überarbeitete Auflage des Standardwerks zum Lehmbau Mit sieben neuen attraktiven internationalen Projekten Zeichnungen verdeutlichen praxisnah die gängigen Konstruktionsweisen.
