In Taiwan, earth is a traditional building material, which is often applied to the adobe walls and bamboo-daub walls of cultural heritage buildings and monuments. In the past, when many adobe walls and bamboo-daub walls of cultural heritage buildings and monuments have been repaired, the ingredients of the earth using in restoration have never been clearly defined. Earth containing inappropriate compositions is still often used and this reduces the aseismic and weatherproof resistance capacity of the walls. In this research, the soil particle size distribution of the earth in adobe walls and bamboo-daub walls of 34 traditional buildings in Yunlin and Chiayi County were analyzed using the siphon test. The analytical results show that most of the earths used in traditional adobe walls are composed of clay-silt. The proportions of clay and silt in different types of walls is not identical. The earth of adobe walls contains more clay than bamboo-daub walls and the surface plaster of adobe walls. Furthermore, the ratio of added rice husk or rice stalk to the earth of the wall plaster and earth with bamboo-daub is much greater than that of the adobe brick. |
