 INTRODUCTION

In this article, the first section is devoted to the classic pathologies of earth construction. First, water, an enemy all the more formidable for its insidiousness, followed by structural weaknesses. The second deals with the specific issue of restoring old buildings, whether heritage or not. And finally, the last section is dedicated to seismic risks.

For those who wish to learn more about earthen construction, we recommend reading the following articles:

  • on introduction to earthen construction [TBA1500] ;

  • the basics of earthen architecture [TBA1530] .
