Abstract

Earth building systems lack specific Brazilian standards for thermal performance. Therefore, the objective was to carry out a bibliometric study on the thermal conductivity of soil-cement and the engineering parameters that affect this property. A data survey was executed focusing on two construction systems: compressed earth blocks (CEB) and rammed earth. A range for thermal conductivity ranging from 0.7 to 1.1 (W/m.K) was observed. And the engineering parameter that exerted the greatest influence was the form of molding of the material, which leads to changes in the specific mass and the thermal capacity of the constructive component.
