Cob Construction: Technology Features And Possibilities Of Its Application In Russia

In modern conditions, one of the key areas of social development is to improve the quality of life of the population.ATunlike most of the developed countries of the world, where individual housing construction is extremely common, in Russia a significant part of citizens live in apartment buildings with from two to twenty-five or more floors.The intensification of private housing construction in conditions of economic instability involves the search for optimal technologies that combine high quality products, low cost and minimal environmental impact.Among the current methods of construction of residential buildings is adobe construction: it combines traditionalism and innovation such as the latest building materials and additives allowing the construction of beautiful, durable and ergonomic houses in various climatic conditions.This paper discusses the features of adobe technology and comparing it to other methods of construction, the study aims to identify the benefits and drawbacks of using adobe in Russia.Moreover, the study will investigate the feasibility of implementing adobe technology in Russia's diverse climatic conditions and highlight the challenges and opportunities associated with its adoption.The findings of this study can inform policymakers, architects, and builders in making informed decisions about the use of adobe technology in their construction projects.
