“…Different techniques have been used to build using earth, sometimes mixed with other ecological materials such as fibers, stone for foundations, wood as a supporting framework or with manufactured materials such as lime or cement binders. For the most used techniques we find the rammed earth, the adobe ((Mud brick), the cob building, the torchis (wattle and daub) and recently the compressed earth blocks (Wright, 2005;Rodríguez-Navarro, 2012;Fodde, 2009;Carmen, 2006;Pacheco-Torgal, 2012;Revuelta-Acosta, 2010;Radivojevic, 2017).…”

Reinforced concrete is currently the most used material in construction, posing a significant environmental concern as GHG emissions and problems related to durability and recycling. Therefore, governments have started to encourage the usage of traditional buildings which offer interesting advantages. However, due to poor mechanical and technical performance, as well as a lack of regulations and know-how their usage is limited. The research work carried out on eco-materials has improved their mechanical performance as well as their water resistance. Despite the importance of this study, it is clear that the proposed ecological models cannot yet compete with modern constructions in terms of mechanical performance, rate of construction and economic efficiency. To combine the advantages of these two construction methods: the modern one with its better mechanical performance and economic efficiency, and the traditional one with its insulating power, ecological and bioclimatic aspects, it is proposed to investigate the aspects of the concept "hybrid building technology" which is less polluting, competitive and capable of reducing the impact of the construction on the environment. This article's goal is to define the concept of hybrid construction technology via an analysis of two modern construction trends: sustainable construction techniques and reinforced concrete buildings. Furthermore, the article discusses several hybridization techniques in the building sector and offers some examples of hybrid construction technology models. Future prospects and recommendations for developing a hybrid building research field are also provided. As a conclusion, this third way in construction will allow for good outcomes in the reconciliation of construction, economics, and man with the environment.

“…The dwellers have adapted the changes effectively, but it is important to comprehend how long these changes will last to preserve the vernacular and trace the changes it is necessary to understand the sustainability and suitability of these construction.

Vernacular architecture is an outcome of people's relationship with their dwellings and environment, it usually is a living example of a regions cultural and social beliefs. However, the recent impact of industrialization and globalization have initiated a change in most vernacular settlements around the world. The changes in the global markets have also initiated changes in both urban and rural built environment. These changes however are taking place in different stage and time. The study discusses the stages of changes in the vernacular buildings in terms of its spatial planning, use of materials, and construction technologies.It employs a case study method involving structured interviews of the residents and observations of their dwellings.The study identifies the buildings in five different stages from vernacular to complete new buildings. It thus provides a primary understanding of the planning of residences, use of materials, construction techniques and social lifestyles of the dwellers in Ektaal, India.
