Jair Dias was kind enough to send photos of his newly completed cordwood home in the State of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. He used “pinus” (Pine) for his cordwood infill and in his own words, “I tried to use only woods grown here in Brazil for use in cordwood construction. All the structural wood of the house is rustic eucalyptus and some pinus.
For siding, I used wood scraps of the species grapia (apuleia leiocarpa). The floor was made of recycled material from our old house. The roof and tile made of recycled material. The house is octagonal with 94 square meters with another sixty on the five sides we have a balcony.”
Should you wish to compare, here is the link to his first posting. https://cordwoodconstruction.org/cordwood-in-brazil
As you can see from the photos he used red clay for his cobwood mixture. 
Beautiful flowers and plants all around. 
Nice work Jair! Congratulations.
