A Little Infomation On MudBricks
Mudbrick or Adobe is a natural building made from sand, clay, manure and water, with some kind of fibrous or organic material such as sticks or straw. (In our Mudbricks we included dry grass clippings.) This mixture is then shaped into bricks using frames andthen dried in the sun.
Buildings made from Mudbricks are extremely durable and account for some of the oldest buildings on earth.
In hot climates buildings built with mudbricks tend to keep cooler than other buildings made from wood. They are fantastic insulators from the outside temperature.
