Does anybody have a section they would be willing to share? It's for a project with a short fuse and I don't have the time to do the research and create one from scratch. Thanks in advance!

On what basis will rammed earth comply with the structural provisions? |

I was referring to the structural provisions in the building code. |

That is up to the project's structural engineer. I am just preparing the specifications and they are reviewing them. Rammed earth has been used on a few projects here in the southwest, so I do not see this as a big structural issue.

I found this just from googling "133500 Rammed earth." I don't know if it is of any help.
