The Université de Pau et des Pays de l’Adour (http://www.univ-pau.fr/en/home.html) and the École des Mines d’Alès (http://www.mines-ales.fr) seek to recruit a PhD candidate for 36 months to investigate the use of raw earth as a construction material to improve indoor air quality and comfort of occupants inside buildings. The project will also study the durability of raw earth in terms of both hygro-thermal performance and visual appearance.
