Combined effect of compaction and clay content on the mechanical properties of adobe brick

Iran is one of the oldest countries in the world, benefiting from adobe-based architecture. The present study investigates the effect of dynamic compaction on mechanical properties of adobes using clayey-silty soils from Ardakan city, Yazd, Iran, with a focus on the compressive, tensile and flexural...
