Pisé
rammed earth : tradition and potential
by Roger Boltshauser, Nadja Maillard, Cyril Veillon, and Romain Anger
This book for the first time illustrates the history and significance of rammed earth construction in Central Europe, particularly in Switzerland, using historical examples to investigate the potential of that building technique for contemporary construction. As such, it represents a pioneering comprehensive documentation that will contribute to safeguarding existing architectural monuments, while also providing the foundation for further research. Based on that evidence, the editors investigate the material's potential for modern day edifices, especially from the perspective of regional architecture claiming to establish identity and save resources.
