Soil testing
Interested to build with earth, but don´t know whether your soil is suitable or how to compose your mix? AVEI offers a simple solution: just send us a sample of 1 Kg, with references: sampling depth, sampling conditions, etc. In case the quarry has really different soil type´s veins, it is preferable to send various samples. Another advice: never take the topsoil with the sample, only the subsoil.
Sensitive analysis can be done as well as laboratory analysis. For more information, you can contact us at info@earth-auroville.com
Block testing
At the Auroville Earth Institute, we can test your blocks with our compression testing machine. You can get the dry compressive strength or the wet compressive strength. Our tests follow a strict procedure to get reliable results. Contact us at info@earth-auroville.com for more information.
CSEB Order
Do you plan to build with CSEBs? We are producing blocks for the Auroville area, but we have also a worldwide network of producers. Contact us at info@earth-auroville.com for any enquiry if you wish to become a producer.
