[GBlist] Clemson U. rammed earth report

[Airlie Sattler <as26@duke.edu>]

Dear Green Builders,

I heard that there was a study by Clemson University on rammed earth
construction. I am looking for the results of that study. I found a
pamphlet published in 1943 at the library of congress:

LC Control Number: 44042252
Type of Material:  Book (Print, Microform, Electronic, etc.)
Brief Description:
                      Glenn, Howard Emmitt, 1896- [from old catalog]
                      Rammed earth building construction,
                      Clemson, S.C. [1943]
                      18 p. illus., diagr. 23 cm.
Is this it?

If so, does anyone out there have a digital/scanned copy they could send
me? There is an architect on our committee who would really like to see a
copy.  Do you know of any other published studies evaluating rammed earth
in a southeast climate?

Thanks for your help!
