Professor at the University of Castilla-La Mancha Francisco J. Castilla has defended the use of rammed-earth wall technique in the current architecture during his lecture in a summer course of the UJI which takes place in Forcall.

The researcher explained that the construction technique with tamped or compacted soil allows the use of local materials in the same place that the construction is done; low energy input (depending on the tools used for compaction); the possibility of varied densities (according to the material with which it is mixed); and an almost complete recyclability.
