Abstract
This study investigated the engineering properties of compressed earth blocks (CEBs) stabilized with by-product binders: calcium carbide residue (CCR) and rice husk ash (RHA). The dry mixtures were prepared using the earthen material and 0-25 wt% CCR, firstly, and 20 wt% CCR partially substituted by …
