Welcome back!

Hello, firstly welcome back to this project. It’s been a long time and I really haven’t given this website the attention it deserves.

But now I’ve recently changed jobs, meaning I’ve a bit more time on my hands, so I can contribute to some of my passions, such as historic earth buildings.

I’m hoping that this will mean I can start putting a bit more content onto this site, I’ve so many things I would like to discuss, here are some of the things I want to talk about:

  • Recent earthquake in Baluchistan, with many mud brick buildings damaged

  • Historic earth buildings in New Zealand

  • Earth building mentions in the Bible

  • Earth Building in Central Asia

  • Thermal behaviour of earth buildings

  • Modern earth building codes and standards

There are many topics I would like to cover, do drop a note in the comments if you have any burning questions related to earth buildings you would like answered.
