“…In the local context of Burkina Faso, similar studies have specifically focused on the stabilization using industrial binders (cement or lime), geopolymer binders, plant fibers or industrial and agricultural by-products in order to enhance the physical and mechanical performances and durability of CEB for applications in building wall constructions (Ouedraogo et al, 2015;Nshimiyimana et al, 2018;Sore et al, 2018;Nshimiyimana et al, 2020aNshimiyimana et al, , 2020bNshimiyimana et al, , 2020cNshimiyimana et al, , 2020dNshimiyimana et al, forthcoming). Additionally, a number of studies has assessed the potential of CEBs as masonry material for improving the indoor comfort and potentially reduce the energy consumption for air-conditioning (Hema et al, 2017;Moussa et al 2019;Hema et al, 2020;Hema et al, forthcoming).…”
