We would like to invite you to attend the International training course “Rammed Earth 2019”, May 20-24 2019, in Mooste Manor. Eestimaaehitus – Competence Center for Ecological Building, restores an old Stable and Carriage House in Mooste Manor, where 2020 will open a Training, Product Development and Competence Center for Ecological Building. During this practical training course, we will introduce the Rammed Earth building technique and construct a partition wall in Competence Center building. The 5-day practical training course is led by Rowland Keable from England.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rammed earth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

History<\/strong> 
Rammed earth walls in a wide variety of structures and applications have been constructed throughout the world over many thousands of years, including sections of the Great Wall of China.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Technique<\/strong>
Rammed earth is formed by compacting loose moist sub-soil, placed in layers 10-15 cm deep, inside the temporary formwork. Compaction is generally dynamic, through the use of manual or pneumatic rammers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modern<\/strong> 
For modern construction it offers a beautiful, high-quality, durable and sustainable building method suitable for a range of external and internal applications, such as walls, floors, furniture and design elements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BENEFITS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Sustainable<\/strong>
Rammed earth has very low embodied energy content, it is re-usable and safe for the environment. Massive earthen walls accumulate heat and balance relative humidity. Improved indoor climate and more energy efficient building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Natural<\/strong>
Working with natural materials is pleasurable and it does not harm your health. Premises finished with natural materials provide better living and working environment and are an integral part of the modern architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Distinctive design<\/strong>
Internal rammed earth walls do not require finish coatings. Unique results can be created by adding decorative rocks, seashells or different colors of clay. Rammed earth walls are works of art of the modern building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trainer Rowland Keable<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

“Rammed Earth 2019” training course is led by Honorary Professor Rowland Keable, UNESCO<\/a> Chair on Earthen Architecture. CEO and Project Officer, Earth Building UK and Ireland<\/a>, Director Rammed Earth Consulting CIC<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rowland has worked with rammed earth technology since 1985 including Passivhaus local authority classrooms where thermal and humidity loads are an issue. Acting as consultants in each case the work was carried out by non-earth specialist designers and contractors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rowland is also involved in writing construction codes and standards both in the UK, Europe and Africa. Rowland was an active member of a group working on a European skills training standard ECVET<\/a> for earth structures. His participation lead to the publication of UK standard training documents for earth building and plasters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rowland continues to pursue standards harmonisation with the British Standards Institution in pursuit of a first Euro norm for earth building. Work in standards is another facet of a career which has involved building, teaching, training, researching, publishing and taking a \u2018by all necessary means\u2019 approach to acceptance and use of earth as a building material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
