Abstract:

Earth Berming are used to reduce thermal load in building envelop and is passive technique to achieve comfort. The composite walls with insulation are costly It is necessary to try different local material using earth berming for building envelop. This research work is associated with theoretical analysis of earth berming systems of different composites using lawn plus lateritic soil/black cotton soil/porous soil and, brick wall with plaster on either side. The prototype earth berming building are developed at laboratory scale and tested, evaluated for its thermal transmittance U values.

Keywords:
