Abstract

It is therefore advisable for Government policy and standards on housing to be rational; so as to enable the population to owned personal Houses; especially in urban centers. This study Examines the functional part of cement stabilized soil blocks for Housing construction in urban centers; and various field and laboratory Tests carried out on samples of social with a conclusion.
