Investigations of various building techniques
Walls
Tire Walls
The original concept, but very labor intensive and it is hard to get tires
Compressed Earth Brick
Great material, but requires a press.
Compressed Earth Walls
Labor intensive and requires forms. Final product looks very cool though.
Clay Fired Brick
Very traditional, but not too hard to make.
