In many of parts of the world the use of vegetable plants and their fibres as building materials is vital for low-cost housing and other construction, for reinforcing cement-based and concrete products, for soil stabiization and many other applications. However, great technical ingenuity is needed to develop appropriate fabrication techniques and to overcome some of the inherent problems of the materials, such as their poor durability. This volume brings together a wealth of information and experience on successful applications of plants and fibres. It forms the proceedings of the Second International RILEM Symposium on Vegetable Plants and their Fibres as Building Materials held in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil in september 1990 and follows the first Symposium held in Baghdad, Iraq in 1986. It will be of value to those involved in research and use of indigenous fibre materials and to architects , consultants, government departments and development agencias responsible for building programmes throughout the developing world. The objectives of the Symposium were: To examine the state-of-the-art- in the field of vegetable plants and their fibres as building materials, emphasizing their use, properties, fabrication, new procedures and future developments. To make available research results on new techniques for fibre reinforcement and their use in concrete, stabilized clay and other matrices. To analyse procedures to make vegetable fibres and wood the usual building materials in developing countries
