Organic building material LA Times Crossword Clue |
ADOBE |
Answer Explanation
Adobe as an organic building material refers to a type of clay that is sun-dried rather than fired in a kiln. It has been traditionally used in many regions around the world, particularly in dry climates where its natural insulating properties are beneficial. Adobe is typically made by mixing clay-rich soil with water and sometimes organic materials such as straw or even dung to improve its binding and structural qualities.
Once the mixture is formed into bricks or blocks, it is left to dry in the sun, hardening into a durable material suitable for constructing walls, homes, and other structures. Adobe buildings are valued for their energy efficiency, as the thick walls help maintain a comfortable indoor temperature in both hot and cold weather.
