This rammed earth sample is not mixed with any additive and was tested for water repellence. 15 ml of water is sprayed on the sample's surface four times. The first spray happened two weeks after ramming, and was sprayed three more times at four day intervals. It was observed that there was severe damage to the sample as the soil particles were swept away severely on the surface.
