Abstract

Based on the findings of various abiotic, biotic and hybrid building materials adhering to ecological standards, we are identifying further needs and demands for the development of exiting raw matters. The tradition has made use of a limited choice of materials but has equally invented ingenious mixes of biotic and abiotic sources, resulting in ecological composite materials. We discuss ecological composite building materials and a combination of previously listed biotic and abiotic resources in drylands. As potential ingredients for future ecological composites suitable for drylands, we rearrange those into categories of binder/matrix and reinforcement/filler.KeywordsEcological MaterialsCompositesTraditionTechnologyCultureCircularity
