[papercreters] Re: mixing concrete

Cement works well at stabilising soil, including clay soil, and has long been used. Putting dry cement powder down and raking it before applying gravel is a good way to stop the gravel sinking in.

I've always called it earthcrete, but cant be sure if that's the usual terminology.
