Description

Influence of Pulverized Locust Bean Husks on the Strength and Durability Characteristics of Lateritic Bricks is the first edition that is appropriate for researchers intending to investigate into durability properties of soil bricks stabilised with agro waste materials. This book gives researchers and students a thorough understanding of the aspect of experimental design on pulverized locust bean husk (PLBH) as stabilising agent for soil bricks. It covers the chemical composition of PLBH, literature review on agro waste materials used as soil stabilising agent and characteristics of soil bricks stabilised with PLBH with reference to building codes, recognised testing and American Society for testing Materials. This book is an excellent material for all civil engineers, structural engineers, researchers and students at degree levels. It is a valuable reference book for practicing engineers in the field.
