Lap Splice Development Length of Rebar in Stabilized Hollow Interlocking Compressed Earth Blocks
… from interlocking compressed earth block (ICEB) units. All lap splice specimens were constructed from hollow ICEB half units with one side grouting channel. ICEB units used in this research were exclusively produced from the Soeng Thai Model BP6 block press. The BP6 block press is currently …

Influence of ureolytic bacteria (UB) on the engineering properties and microstructure behavior of interlocking compressed earth bricks (ICEB)
Interlocking Compressed Earth Brick (ICEB) are cement stabilized soil bricks that allow for dry stacked construction. This characteristic resulted to the quick process of building walls at the same time, it requires less skilled labour as the bricks are laid dry and can easily be locked into its …

Flexural Behavior of Interlocking Compressed Earth Block Shear Walls Subjected to In-Plane Loading
… behavior of interlocking compressed earth block (ICEB) shear walls. In-plane cyclic tests were conducted to evaluate the performance of three flexure dominant large scale ICEB specimens: a slim wall with a 2:1 height to width aspect ratio, a flanged wall, and a wall with an opening at the center. …

Investigation of Out-of-Plane Properties of Interlocking Compressed Earth Block Walls
<p>Interlocking compressed earth blocks (ICEBs) are cement stabilized soil blocks that allow for dry stacked construction. The incomplete understanding of the inelastic performance of ICEB building systems limits widespread acceptance of this structural system in earthquake prone areas. This thesis …

Seismic Design Manual for Interlocking Compressed Earth Blocks
… simple Interlocking Compressed Earth Block (ICEB) structures in seismically active regions. ICEBs are earth blocks made primarily of soil and stabilized with cement. They have female and male stud mechanisms designed to interlock when stacked, eliminating the need for mortar. The blocks can …

Diagonal Tension Testing of Interlocking Compressed Earth Block Panels
… strength of Interlocking Compressed Earth Block (ICEB) panels. This work expands on the current information available about strength properties of ICEB assemblies, which are dry-stacked, as opposed to having mortared beds. Variables such as block strength, grout strength and grouting pattern can …

In-Plane Cyclic Shear Performance of Interlocking Compressed Earth Block Walls
… lime. The interlocking compressed earth blocks (ICEBs) used in this experiment are dry stacked interlocking hollow units, which can be reinforced and grouted after they are laid. Although significant research has been undertaken to optimize the material properties of CEBs, little has been done to …
