To provide a composite for a building material that is harmless to the environment and can be recycled. The composite contains diatomaceous earth, waste lumber, and inorganic hardener, or further contains field earth, and, as necessary, used paper and/or crushed pieces of used tatami mat, used tile, and crushed earth. The composite is prepared by homogeneously mixing the components, and then molding the building material and curing the composite. The manufactured building material has a high humidity conditioning property as in the case of the conventional mud walls made of coarse clay, and is easily recycled by being crushed. Moreover, this building material does not cause hypersensitiveness to chemical substances, and has a feel of earth so that earthen walls and flower beds made by using this building material integrate well with an appearance of an ancient city and are in harmony with the beautiful appearance of houses. |
