The soil was spread out to dry over the next day.+Day 1: Finding materials. This included finding wooden members and soil from the site to sieve and get clay out of it.

These were embedded in the jute cloth to create a layer of vertical reinforcement. Day 2: The site was inspected for sunlight and moisture content. Also the jute cloth was monitored for dampness.
