INTRODUCTION

AnyWay Solid Environmental Solutions Ltd. is a global leader in providing soil stabilization products to the infrastructure and development sectors. Our products are based on a unique technology patented worldwide. One of the many alternatives available for building low cost housing, Compressed Stabilized Earth Block (CSEB) construction is one of the most favorable. AnyWay unique products maximize the use of local soils (even poor quality soils) as the primary building material for the homes. In addition, AnyWay has developed a Rural Community Development Plan (RCDP) which incorporates low cost housing and road building construction projects utilizing our products with the transfer of the technology and training of local populations in the skills associated with these applications. Earth building using AnyWay’s new line of products has much to offer those who place value upon environmental sustainability. It enables us to incorporate the land we live on into our buildings; it saves energy both in the process of creating the building materials and in importing them to the building site; it creates more efficient thermal and acoustic isolation; and adapts itself to the local environment in which we live.

    Materials – SIPs or Structural Insulated Panels are a good sustainable construction technique. SIPs are large panels that when all fitted together make a house. They are pre-fabricated off site to exact measurements so everything slots together perfectly. When they are brought onto site because they have been made to fit perfectly off site all the contractor needs to do is slot them into place like a large jig saw puzzle. With these panels being made to exact dimensions it means less materials are being wasted on site and it also means that less machinery etc. is needed onsite to construct the finished product so this reduces the overall pollution and wastage of materials.…

    In the absence of electrical power and technologies, a great importance was given to environmental comfort. The interaction of different materials in different building elements was determined by the physical properties of these particular materials. With reference to the below sketch, one can see how the heavy external walls were constructed in an inner and outer layer of stone blocks; insulated with a core of peat and earth and waterproofed with clay. Turf was also used to absorb any excess retained moisture. The roof was based on a structural frame built using driftwood or whale bone, clad with timber coursing. Over the wood, layers of peat, grass and straw thatch were used for thermal insulation and waterproofing. The roofing materials were secured with a rope netting and weighted downwards using stone anchors.…

    Many people think that as long as there land beneath a building that it’s fine and you can put whatever you want on top of it. As years have gone by and scientists and engineers have been able to study different types of soil and their tendencies we have figured out that that is just not the case. The ground can be greatly different in characteristics in one spot than it is just a few feet away. That is why there must be cores drilled across the site of where large…

    Clay brickwork is made from selected clays that are moulded or cut into shape and fired in ovens. the firing process transforms the clay into a building component with high compressive strength and excellent weathering qualities, attributes that have been exploited for millennia to build structures ranging from single-storey huts to enormous viaducts. Clay brickwork is australia’s most widely used external cladding and loadbearing wall medium. Clay bricks are readily available, massproduced, thoroughly tested modular building components. Their most desirable acoustic and thermal properties derive from their relatively high mass. Clay bricks are generally affordable, require little or no maintenance and possess high durability and load bearing capacity. The use of clay brickwork is informed by extensive Australian research, manufacturing and construction experience.…
