Development of optimized compressed earth blocks based on circular economy concepts

Abstract

With the growing concern in adopting more sustainable technical solutions, interest in earth as a construction material has been renewed. This work has as main objective to evaluate the mechanical behavior of CEBs from the incorporation of waste and industrial by-products without neglecting their termal performance and durability. In this context, the incorporation of CDW will be studied in order to contribute to the implementation of the circular economy in the construction sector.
