Sustainable Mediterranean Construction
Sustainable Mediterranean Construction
Soil hysteretic reaction can be defined as the irreversible part of the soil deformation, which is mainly due to the soil anisotropy which is closely related to soil behavior. In civil engineering, hysteretic behavior of unsaturated earth material can no longer be ignored, and the soil-structure interaction should be considered in long term conditions. In this paper we explore the valuable alternative of using natural earth material with high clay content as construction material, by studying the improvement of the material’s behavior in rammed condition. Even if, neither its geotechnical parameters nor its mechanical behaviour are suitable for earth construction standards. The adopted approach is to submit the tested material to recurrent wetting-drying conditions under different pressure condition. The global behavior is discussed through the double-level structure evolution along mechanical and hydraulic constraints.
