Abstract: There're a large number of raw-soil wall of historical and cultural architectures in Sichuan and Chongqing Region, and most of them are national key cultural relics protection, but mostly exposed to the wild in the environment. Due to various factors, these precious historical sites have been damaged to varying degrees. For protecting and repairing raw-soil wall of historical and cultural architectures, we add some admixture like cement, ginger stone, epoxy resin etc., to research a new kind of modified raw-soil for repairing. Using proportion of modified soil with different admixture made into adobe specimen, and do the experimental study on compressive strength, erosion resistance, UV resistance and salt corrosion resistance of the specimens was carried out. The results show that the repairing soil with 5% (by mass), 10% ginger stone, 3% epoxy resin and 82% soil has good mechanical properties and durability. This study can provide references for the development of high-performance cultural relic protection materials.
