What is the difference between slump block construction and burnt adobe?
Burnt Adobe is made by packing red sand/clay "mud" into a wooden form, allowing it to "set" removing the wooden form, drying it in the sun, then putting it into an over where the heat causes the particles to sinter together. The resulting product has an unusually high amount of empty space in its volume, and is a surprisingly effective thermal insulator/moderator. It will eventually be destroyed by water, and wicks moisture with the same result, but can be a very good building material for the SW if kept dry by design and application, and cared-for properly. Slump Block is a concrete block manufactured to look like adobe or burnt adobe, it is stronger, heavier, more durable, and lower maintenance. Some are solid, and some have air chambers in them, but, none insulate well.
