How does rammed limestone contribute to sustainable construction in regions with limestone deposits?
Rammed limestone, also known as limestone cob or limestonecrete, is a sustainable building material made from locally available limestone deposits mixed with water and aggregates. It offers advantages such as thermal mass, breathability, and low embodied energy, suitable for walls, floors, and foundations in limestone-rich regions.
