Size Factor of Rammed Earth Specimen

Abstract:

This paper describes some of tests of mechanical properties of rammed earth which have been held at CTU in Prague. Influence of size of specimen was examined in two tests, conversion factor is counted. Size factor is discussed comparing to concrete, influence of layer depth is also mentioned.
