Propriétés mécanique, hydrique et thermique de briques en terre crue amendées aux coques d’arachide
Ouanmini Bobet, Mohamed Seynou, Lamine Zerbo, Halidou Bamogo, Issiaka Sanou, Moustapha Sawadogo
Des briques de terre crue élaborées à base d’une argile locale ont été amendées aux coques d’arachide pour améliorer leur performance mécanique et leur durabilité. Les coques d’arachide ont été découpées à trois longueurs respectives de 0,33 cm, 1cm et 3cm et ajoutées à la matrice argileuse à des teneurs allant de 1,8 à 3 % en masse. Les briqu(...)
