Ziggurats were primarily constructed using mud bricks, which were made from a mixture of clay, water, and straw. These bricks were then sun-dried or baked to increase their durability. In some cases, ziggurats also incorporated stone for foundational support and decorative elements. The use of mud bricks allowed for significant height and complex architectural designs characteristic of these ancient structures.
A mud slab typically uses concrete with a strength of around 2,500 to 3,000 psi (pounds per square inch). This lower strength is sufficient for providing a stable base for flooring and is often used in residential construction. The primary purpose of a mud slab is to create a level surface and prevent moisture penetration, rather than to bear heavy loads.
Ziggurats were primarily constructed using mud bricks and stone because these materials were more readily available in the regions where they were built, such as Mesopotamia. Wood was scarce in these areas and less durable against the elements, while steel was not yet widely used or available in ancient times. The choice of mud bricks offered better insulation and stability, crucial for the massive structures that needed to withstand the test of time.
Depends on what mud system you use.
Ziggurats were typically built using sun-dried bricks made from mud and clay. They were constructed in steps or terraces, with a core of mud bricks and an outer layer of baked bricks for added strength. The layers were then covered in a plaster made from mud and straw.
Adobe bricks are made with mud.
with mud
They were made with mud bricks. The mud bricks were really mud put into a shape of a brick and then dryed out.
The Sumerians used mud bricks to build their houses. These bricks were made by mixing mud, water, and straw, and then drying them in the sun. The bricks were then stacked and bound together with mud mortar to construct their homes.

Mud buildings are not suitable for earthquakes because they tend to shake apart at the seams due to their loose construction. Normal sun dried mud bricks do not have the strength of clay or concrete.
