Relevance of soil distribution to opportunities for stabilising mud
The clay content of the mud affects its potential use in forming cement-stabilised buildings. In this presentation,
H&H members Deryck Laming, Robert Hodgson and Mike Heath use
published soil maps of Bangladesh to extrapolate from the H&H pilot

This paper was presented by Deryck Laming to the International
Conference on Geoscience for Global Development in Dhaka in
October 2009.
