This document discusses the materials and process for building a stone masonry wall foundation and structure. It describes excavating and laying down a base of rounded stones, followed by compacted sandy filler material. Angular stone is then used to build a masonry wall, which is filled in layers with compacted sand. Wood panels, braces, and wedges are used to support the stone wall structure during construction. Compaction of the foundation and filler layers is important to ensure stability of the finished wall. Sources listed at the bottom provide additional information on earth architecture, sustainable materials, and the works of architect Rick Joy.
