Compressed Stabilised Earth Blocks
Compressed Stabilised Earth Blocks (CEB) can be compressed in many different shapes and sizes. The soil, raw or stabilized, for a compressed earth block is slightly moistened, poured into a steel press (with or without stabiliser) and then compressed either with a manual or motorized press. The input of soil stabilization allowed people to build higher with thinner walls, which have a much better compressive strength and water resistance. With cement stabilization, the blocks must be cured for four weeks after manufacturing.º º º º º º
