Abstract
This research evaluates the compression strength and durability of rammed earth reinforced with cannabis fibres derived from waste in the medicinal cannabis industry. The results indicate that samples with fibres exhibit higher compression strength and post-failure elastic characteristics, resisting collapse for 8 minutes longer than those without fibres. Subsequently, this thesis develops a circular economy model involving three companies in the Colombian municipality of Barichara, Santander, to identify barriers, opportunities, and strategies to optimize waste management in the cannabis industry.
