Influence of natural fiber dosage and length on adobe mixes damage-mechanical behavior

[Display omitted] •Addition of pig hair to earthen materials controlled drying shrinkage cracking.•Impact strength increased as fiber dosage and length increased.•High dosage of long fibers formed clusters that reduced average flexural and compressive strength. This study addresses the use of a natu...
