Abstract

Peat soil and effective microorganism (EM) based cement-sand block is relatively new in the production of masonry unit, therefore it is important to gather more results in simulating the real conditions on a small scale before it is being introduced to the construction industry. EM is added as it has the potential to reduce the thermal mass of the block through its by-product while peat soil is added as it is expected to undergo degradation by time hence giving a porous structure to the block and make it ‘breathable’
