I am a third year PhD student in the School of Engineering at the University of Durham. I am researching historic rammed earth structures, and using these pages to foster interest and spread knowledge of the rammed earth technique.

Hello Paul,
I thought you might be interested in the natural homes map which can display portfolios of homes or groups of construction types. You can include the map in your own website or blog.
Here are a few examples:
Straw bale homes by Amazonails http://naturalhomes.org/themap.htm?all@amazonails
cob homes by Kevin McCabe http://naturalhomes.org/themap.htm?all@mccabe
straw bale homes near Sacremento http://naturalhomes.org/themap.htm?strawbale@all@38.57,-121.48,6
You are welcome to use the map. The iFrame code you would need is here http://naturalhomes.org/naturalhomesmap.htm
If you can help I would love to include any rammed earth buildings you know about. I have very few earthen homes at the moment.
Regards, Oliver (in Newcastle)
I found your reference to my work on your website (my website and paper on Bam), and would like to be in touch. I continue to be involved with earthen structures. I look forward to receiving an email from you.
