AbstractThis study explores the use of plant waste–derived materials in earthen building construction
to address global warming, specifically how different percentages of tomato stem waste
(TSW) and pepper stem waste (PSW) aggregates, from 0% to 1.5% by ...Practical ApplicationsThis study provides valuable insights into the use of agricultural waste specifically
tomato stem waste (TSW) and pepper stem waste (PSW) in unfired earth blocks (UEBs)
stabilized with lime. By exploring the mechanical and ...
