To coincide with launch of the new publication 'Rammed earth: design &
construction guidelines', a one-day conference on rammed earth
construction is to be held on Wednesday 9th February 2005 in the
Department of Architecture & Civil Engineering at the University of Bath.
Rammed earth structures are constructed by compacting unstabilised or
lightly stabilised soils and this material is used for loadbearing and non-
loadbearing applications. The workshop should be of interest to
geotechnical engineers, structural engineers, architects and contractors.
