ABSTRACT:
A method of constructing an adobe building from adobe bricks, at least some having a hollow core therethrough, includes assembling adobe bricks atop one another to form a vertical wall structure, so that the hollow cores align to form a vertical channel. An extended reinforcing member is inserted through the channel, and a building material is poured into and set in the vertical channel. Electrical, plumbing, and other service systems can be formed into the wall. If desired, a substantially planar reinforcing structure can be placed between layers of bricks, resulting in a horizontally reinforced wall structure. A method of forming a scaffolding is also provided, wherein the scaffold supports are inserted into depressions in some of the bricks.
