For a number of years, the healthy and environment-friendly building material earth, in common use for thousands of years, has been enjoying increasing popularity, including in industrialized nations. In hot dry and temperate climate zones, earth offers numerous advantages over other materials. Its particular texture and composition also holds great aesthetic appeal.

The second and revised edition of this handbook offers a practical systematic overview of the many uses of earth and techniques for processing it. Its properties and physical characteristics are described in informed and knowledgeable detail.

The author's presentation reflects the rich and varied experiences gained over thirty years of building earth structures all over the world. Numerous photographs of construction sites and drawings show the concrete execution of earth architecture.

Der ressourcenschonende und gesunde Baustoff Lehm, seit Jahrtausenden gebräuchlich, erfreut sich seit vielen Jahren auch in den Industrienationen wachsender Beliebtheit. In gemäßigten und trocken-heißen Klimazonen bietet der Lehm zahlreiche Vorteile gegenüber anderen Materialien. Seine spezifische Beschaffenheit und Textur ist außerdem von hohem ästhetischem Reiz.

Die neue und erweiterte 2. Auflage dieses Handbuchs bietet einen praxisorientierten systematischen Überblick über die zahlreichen Einsatzmöglichkeiten und Verarbeitungstechniken von Lehm seine Eigenschaften und physikalischen Gegebenheiten werden detailliert und kenntnisreich erläutert. Die reichhaltigen Erfahrungen, die der Autor bei der Ausführung von Lehmbauten im In- und Ausland über 3 Jahre gewinnen konnte, spiegeln sich in seiner Darstellung wieder. Zahlreiche Baustellenfotos und Zeichnungen zeigen die konkrete Umsetzung von Lehm-Architektur.
