Yes, the University of Utah built a project house in Central Utah from rammed earth, and the southwest is known for their adobe homes (a type of rammed earth technique). Also, I would think that if you lived farther north (with snow and such), then parallels could be drawn to the rammed earth homes made across Europe and Asia that also receive snow (see taipa - Portuguese, or pisé de terre - French). A true testament to the durability of rammed earth would include such immense structures as the Great Wall of China, the Alhambra in Granada, and the Potala Palace in Lhasa. If these great structures can withstand the centuries, even millennia I'm pretty confident it could withstand even Utah's unpredictable weather. There is a great book on this subject called "Earth Architecture" that you can pick up from any bookstore or Amazon if you would like more information. (Amazon link here: http://www.amazon.com/Earth-Architecture-Ronald-Rael/dp/1568987676?&camp=212361&creative=383845&linkCode=wss&tag=eartharchitec-20 ). Good luck to you.

P.S. You should know that I am in no way affiliated with the book I recommended. Just really liked it :)
Rammed earth typically consists of one solid layer that is compacted and then left to dry. However, it can also be built up in multiple layers if desired, with each layer being compacted before adding the next one.
Yes, several actually. The first I am aware of is a residence my
company (www.solumbuilders.ca) built in the summer of 2006 in
Twisp. Other residences have since been built in Port Townsend.
The builders always tried to use local resources so the
construction materials vary along its length, stones form places
where there was stone to mine and rammed earth where there was not.
In some places bricks were used.
Earthships are typically constructed using a combination of natural and recycled materials such as rammed earth, tires packed with earth, bottles, and cans. These materials help provide thermal mass and insulation, making the buildings energy efficient and sustainable. Earthships also often incorporate passive solar design principles to maximize solar gain and minimize energy usage.
Rammed earth is a construction technique where angular particles such as sand, gravel, and clay are compacted tightly in layers to form solid walls. This method has been used for centuries and is valued for its durability and sustainability. The compaction of the particles creates a strong and stable structure that is resistant to weathering.
Mostly of stone and masonry, including five marble bridges and a
large marble terrace, but the Hall of Supreme Harmony, once the
throne hall, is one of the largest wooden structures in the
world.
Objects made from soil include clay pottery, adobe bricks, and earthen sculptures. These items are formed by shaping and drying soil, often mixed with water or other natural materials for added strength and durability. Additionally, soil can be used for construction purposes, such as rammed earth walls or earthen floors.
Depends on which hole you implant the schlong into.if she
swaggles the goo and it gets on your minkya and it gets rammed
inside.. then yes, you can have anal pregnancy
if the animal that has antlers is mad at you or just mad then
beware it might ram into you using its antlers and its very
painful, my cousin got rammed once and he regretted going near
it.
The people of the Qin Dynasty in ancient China lived in various types of housing, depending on their social status and wealth. The wealthiest individuals lived in large palaces or mansions made of wood and stone. Ordinary people typically lived in simpler houses made of rammed earth or clay bricks, while peasants lived in small thatched-roof huts.
