Natural materials in building construction - annual evaluation

The construction industry's focus on a low-carbon economy will result in the need for deeper examination of natural-based building materials. From an environmental point view, benefits these materials are undeniable. However, it is necessary to consider their shortcomings other areas design terms thermal engineering. This article observes and evaluates wall designed wooden with almost zero energy demand year-round operation subsequent assessment confrontation different composition, seemingly more advantageous resistance humidity regime. These assemblies under long-term within pavilion research authors' workplace, laboratory conditions from interior side. At same time, they exposed realistic boundary external environment. paper includes two compositions, variating used material. shows that composition natural ecological perspective can also show favourable effects temperature relative regulation.
