Seit drei Jahrzehnten gibt es ein wachsendes Interesse am umweltfreundlichen Baustoff Lehm, der seine beispielhafte Nachhaltigkeit schon über Jahrhunderte bewiesen hatte. Gerade der Leichtlehmbau, bei dem Holzskelett- oder Fachwerkwände mit Lehm und Faserstoffen ausgefacht werden, hat besonders gute bauphysikalische Eigenschaften. Dass Lehmbau heute nichts Exotisches mehr an sich hat, ist unter anderem diesem Standardwerk zu verdanken, das den Einsatz dieses „alten“ Baustoffes umfassend und aktuell darstellt. Es enthält neben vielen praktischen Tipps Informationen über konstruktive Vereinfachungen und den Gebrauch von Lehm-Fertigbaustoffen für die zeitgemäße Bauabwicklung. Die Auswahl der Projektebeispiele zeigt die Vielfalt des Baustoffes; Selbstbauprojekte demonstrieren darüber hinaus die einzigartige Möglichkeit, den Leichtlehmbau mit eigenen Händen zu entdecken. Für die 8. Auflage wurde der Beispielteil aktualisiert, die Kapitel „Planung und Kosten“ sowie „Bauphysik“ adaptiert, die Normenangaben wurden auf den neuesten Stand gebracht. Das Buch richtet sich an Bauherren, Architekten und Ingenieure, Hersteller und Handwerker sowie an Selbstbauer. The interest in clay as a building material – which has proved its sustainable characteristics over centuries – is growing. Light clay, which is light in weight and easy to work, is presented here as a versatile and forward-looking building material for modern computer-aided timber construction and the renewal of historic timber-framed buildings with clay infill. The balanced building physics properties of the material, which can be controlled through the mixing proportions, make it suitable for resource-efficient building in various different climate zones. Thermal storage, sound insulation, protection against moisture and fire in conventional timber construction are improved, and the construction is simplified. This standard publication describes detailed production methods, includes practical tips for self-building, and demonstrates the application of ready-made materials in modern construction. The book is aimed at architects, engineers, and their clients, as well as for listed building officers, manufacturers, tradesmen and self-builders

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. 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 30 Jahre gewinnen konnte, spiegeln sich in seiner Darstellung wieder. Zahlreiche Baustellenfotos und Zeichnungen zeigen die konkrete Umsetzung von Lehm-Architektur. 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 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.

· The first-ever English edition of the seminal work in the Earth Building field · Provides examples of sophisticated earth building projects and illustrates the diverse applications of earth as a building material · Explains DIN 18945 – 47 standards for industrially-produced earth blocks and earth mortars This book provides an insightful overview of the current state of earth building. The author approaches the subject from the perspective of the building material’s life cycle, featuring in-depth explanations of the cycle's individual steps: extraction and classification of construction soil; production of earth building materials and earthen structures; planning, construction and renovation of earth buildings; and demolition and recycling of earthen structures. This unique resource provides examples of sophisticated earth building projects and illustrates the diverse applications of earth as a building material. Compared to conventional mineral building materials, earth possesses particularly positive ecological qualities such as its energy balance and recyclability. Architects, engineers, students, manufacturers and distributors of building materials, building contractors, building biologists, public authorities, and preservationists will benefit from this book’s ample coverage of restoring, optimizing and building with this material of the past, present and future.
