Influence of water repellent chemical additive and different curing regimes on dimensional stability and strength of earth bricks from termite mound-clay

This article is focussed on evaluating the effects of water repellent admixture and different curing regimes on characteristics of clay from termite hills used for production of earth bricks. Water absorption, thickness swelling and compressive strength characteristics of the specimens with differen...
