Building with Lime: An Introduction

  • Lime is an age old binder which was used as a construction material worldwide before it was replaced by cement in the 1950s. At Aanandaa, we chose to build our #sustainablehouse with lime as the primary binder material along with rammed earth and stone.
    In this video series, we are partnering with Malvika Mehta, Founder of MLIME BUILD LLP, on understanding lime as a binder, it's properties, ways to include it in your building, and its pros and cons vis a vis cement.
    The closed loop of lime's lifecycle is why it is sustainable, recyclable, low energy and more relevant than ever before. Companies like MLIME, and people like Malvika are helping house builders adopt this material with standardised products, on site training and theoretical know how.

    Very well put. I share the belief that there is a middle ground between the concrete box and living in the forest. Thanks for this informative and inspiring content 🤘

    Soo interesting, I lived in Philadelphia USA in a 140 year old house. We had to figure out a lime sand mixture to repair our original lime mortar between the bricks. This is mainly because expansion of new cement is different and would destroy our very old bricks. The recipe we landed on was three parts sand and one part hydrated lime. Seem to hold up well over the years

    In our old stone house in chilly mid-wales, we are mixing insulating aggregates like hemp, granulated cork and perlite into non-hydraulic lime binder to make an insulating, moisture regulating internal wall insulation product which we are applying directly onto our bare stone at 40mm thick.
    There is so little standard info / recipes available so we are having to experiment quite a bit, but I feel lucky in some ways to be helping to bring-back the knowledge of this material and to be on the cutting-edge of figuring out how to innovate with it. Exciting times.

    Greetings and thank you again for this series on working with lime. I'm very interested in working with lime as a stabilizer for rammed earth, however, in the country I'm considering, I'm hearing that lime is twice as expensive as cement. Do you know if this is the case in general (worldwide)? Thank you.

    • @farmaanandaa
      @farmaanandaa  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hello and nice to hear from you. In India, lime is marginally more expensive. In your country Lime may be a rarely used material and perhaps that may be the reason for it being more expensive. Moreover, cement lobbies always manage to get rebates and tax concessions from the government!.

    In my ancestral haveli, the lime mortar is used. Its still standing. However the architects are no longer and the knowledge is completely lost. I wish your team could reestablish the ancient architectural knowledge of India. And create proper documents for it, so that future generations can refer your authentic source.

    • @farmaanandaa

      Lime has a longer lasting and classier finish. Cow dung based plaster may need frequent reapplication. We have no experience in using a combination of them. Do try and let us know too!
