Page "Adobe" Paragraph 19

Depending on the materials available, a roof can be assembled using lengths of wood or metal to create a framework to begin layering adobe bricks.

Depending on the thickness of the adobe bricks, the framework has been performed using a steel framing and a layering of a metal fencing or wiring over the framework to allow an even load as masses of adobe are spread across the metal fencing like cob and allowed to air dry accordingly.

This method was demonstrated with an adobe blend heavily impregnated with cement to allow even drying and prevent major cracking.
