Enhancing Compressed Earth Block Performance: Effects of Gelatinized Starch and Fiber Reinforcement on Mechanical Properties by Gabo Cyprien Bailly, Yassine El Mendili, Athanas Konin, Eliane Khoury

“…Various stabilization methods were tested to enhance the mechanical performance of CEBs, with a focus on starch as a natural binder and the incorporation of hemp as natural fibers. The research findings indicate that while starch slightly reduced internal cohesion by 13%, the addition of fibers alone significantly improved compression resistance by increasing strength by a factor of 3.57. …”
