Course details

Learn to build using what mother nature provides, within my own Rammed Earth Eco-Shed on The Norfolk Broads!
These fun and friendly courses will be held over two days and will cover all the essential areas of building with rammed earth.
We will cover many topics together and you will take away the confidence to go forward and complete a project of your own, to include:

Design and location of your structure

Footings and DPC

Soil suitability - soil testing

Earth blending - preparing earth mixes

'Coffin' former design - corners, curves and straights

Tools - what to use and how to use them

Ramming techniques

Window and door openings - sills and lintels

Bond Beams

Green 'living' roofs
