Abstract

The project aims to evaluate the performance of the soil -lime-rice husk ash, taking into account not only the evolution of the value of mechanical strength but also the possible variations of this because of the exposure conditions of the material during the period healing. Also intends to evaluate the water absorption of the material, and the possible influence of previous immersion before testing of mechanical (AU)
