This paper investigates the effect of integrating Alfa fibers into compressed earth blocks (CEBs) stabilized with varying Portland cement contents. CEB composites were manufactured with earth stabilized using different cement contents (5% and 10% by weight) and Alfa fibers reinforcement (0-0.4% by weight), compressed at 10 MPa with a compaction loading press. After 28 days of drying, the CEBs underwent diverse experimental tests to evaluate their physical, mechanical, and durability properties. The findings indicated that incorporating fibers led to a diminution in unit weight, ultrasonic pulse velocity, and dry compressive strength. Moreover, an increase in water absorption was linked with higher fiber content and less cement stabilizer. Despite the drop in mechanical strength, CEBs with lower cement (5%) and higher fiber content (0.4%) show better thermal performance. Thermal conductivity values were decreased from 0.5166 W/m.K (10% cement without fibers) to 0.3465 W/m.K (5% fibers with 0.4% fibers). The findings show also satisfactory erosion resistance, which could play a crucial role in areas prone to extreme weather events (floods and storms). According to the findings of this research, this material has potential as a promoting composite for the building materials industry.
