This paper investigates the effects of stabilization on the hygrometric and thermal properties of rammed earth. In terms of moisture buffer value and moisture sorption, four mixes are analyzed and compared.
It would be better to extend the title with a subtitle, which should explain immediately that what the title expresses is based on a (limited) number of laboratory tests. The same aspect should be stressed in the abstract, which is clear on the whole.
The highlights are quite clear.
The structure of the paper is clear.
The "Introduction" quickly depicts the "topic" of rammed earth (such as References, which are a selection, necessarily short, of the current scientific literature) and focuses on the specific topic of the article. In this section of the paper:
1) the data cited in lines 41-43 are reported as general and not as related to certain (climatic) areas;

In 2.1 "Materials", it should be widely explained the choice to include mix P in this study.
In 2.2.2 "Moisture sorption isotherms":
1) the oven temperature and the dimensions of the specimen could be added.
2) figure 4 is not clear;
3) it should be pointed out that the test is conducted both at standard conditions and after wet-dry cycles.
2.4 could be named "Moisture sorption isotherms".
In "Discussion":
1) what is stated in line 322 is a confirmation more than a demonstration.
In "Conclusions":
1) the first point appears too much underlined, if compared to its content and to the number of specimens;
2) although a short hint at the end of the fourth point, this section lacks considerations and perspectives about future researches on this
Section B (A02): I will be focusing on how diseases are distributed within the population, factors affecting the cause and distribution of diseases and compare the differences between my two chosen diseases (one communicable and one
The Brady Handgun Violence Protection Act, in short: The Brady Act, was United States legislation that was passed by Congress in 1993. The Brady Act required a five-day waiting period and criminal background check, performed by state and local law enforcement, for the purchase of a handgun. The Brady Act was instituted to curtail handgun violence and decrease the probability of a handgun ending up in a criminal’s hands. The legislation was heavily pushed by Senator James Brady and his wife, Sarah Brady, after Sen. Brady was seriously injured by a gunshot wound during the attempted assassination of President Ronald Reagan in 1981.
1.What two factors did you investigate in your procedure, and why did you choose to compare these two factors?
Danner and Phillips may cite multiple other sources near the beginning of the article without much explanation, but these sources are neither as pertinent nor as beneficial. Moreover, this is not the only item left out in the discussion that should be
· The results of the study, the interpretation of the data by the authors and any conclusions they include at the end of the article.
This section should be concise. List each step of the procedure in either numbered format or you can use bullet points. Remember to always use PASSIVE language when writing lab reports. Never use I placed HCl into a 50mL beaker, instead say 50 mL HCl was placed in a 50 mL beaker.
References are properly cited within the paper; reference page includes all citations; proper title page and introduction are present and evidence of spell check and grammar check are not obvious. Seven to 10 errors noted.
Purpose: In this lab, we will calculate the percent composition of water in a hydrate and determine the empirical formula of the hydrate.
