Good question. As these are experimental building techniques, it's very difficult to find any guidelines or regulations. We followed US codes, which have some allowances for super adobe, for example connecting the walls together with a reinforced concrete bond beam. These codes are outlined in Earthbag Building: The Tools, Tricks and Techniques, which was pretty much our bible.
The problem with experimental building is that you simply cant do it if you follow standard codes, which gets us nowhere fast, you have to do it to prove it - preferably on top of a mountain somewhere and not in the centre of a town. We were visited by multiple architects and engineers during the building process; we over engineered and are continuing to do so.
