The earth/rice bag are finished with cement just like red brick construction water no problem and the rice hulls are excellent inzulation and light in weight.juansweetpotato wrote:I agree, but compacted earth walls are quicker. Just make sure you keep the rain off the walls with a low hanging roof or something. Mud walls also suck all the moisture out of the rooms, so low humidity too.beaker wrote:Earthbag / bagged rice hulls is the way to go here for cheap unskilled builder home in southeast Asia IMHO. Cheap and they are super insulated to keep the air conditioned interior cool.

Plenty of mud and rice straw in the villages, and the type of construction here, with the concrete floor and concrete pillars make it ideal for mud-bricks as they are only used as the filler in of space.

For anyone wanting to build in mud, I suggest you start with something cheap and simple like this and the family will not take over and move in .
