Soil has been used as building material for thousands of years with a decrease in popularity after the industrial revolution. Nowadays, there is a growing interest in the implementation of unfired soil-based building solutions for their low environmental impact, performances and availability. Traditional soil construction techniques have recurrently included vegetal fibres to enhance soil performance and recent studies highlight a predominant use of agro- and non-agro-waste for unfired soil construction. The article reviews the state-of-the-art of the use of excavated soil and biowaste in the construction industry including a novel focus on urban-only waste and on building technologies using the integration of these two secondary construction material flows. Our literature review highlights a lack of references about the joint use of these secondary resources. Finally, future research orientations are suggested to promote their implementation in the building sector, which could improve urban waste management.
数千年来，土壤一直被用作建筑材料，但在工业革命后，其受欢迎程度有所下降。如今，人们对实施非烧制土壤基建筑解决方案越来越感兴趣，因为它们对环境的影响低、性能好、可用性强。传统的土壤建筑技术经常包括植物纤维，以提高土壤性能，最近的研究强调了农业和非农业废物在非烧制土壤建筑中的主要用途。本文综述了在建筑行业中使用挖掘土壤和生物废料的最新技术，包括对仅在城市产生的废物和使用这两种二次建筑材料流整合的建筑技术的新关注。我们的文献综述强调了缺乏关于这些二次资源联合使用的参考文献。最后，提出了未来的研究方向，以促进它们在建筑领域的实施，从而改善城市废物管理。
