M1 / M2 – Project / Supplementary Module, in cooperation with the Junior Professorship for Reconstruction: “Material database on earth and loam construction methods”.

The Junior Professorship for Recyclable Construction has created an ecological materials database that can be consulted both in the rooms of the professorship and at https://emmy.rb.rwth-aachen.de/de/. The aim of our cooperative seminar will be to expand the data resources to include samples and patterns for building with clay and earth. For this purpose, materials and components are to be collected, described and inventoried. The results of the seminar are to be made available to the M 1 / M 2 project “Hoogcruts, sustainable” and the Indian-German Summer Academy and tested there.
