from the study are as follows:

alls - The rammed earth is a material with high thermal
inertia evertheless this feature should be considered
with caution: If it reduces heating reuirements
oofs considerably in the winter it causes an increase in the air
conditioning load in summer Indeed the walls with high
thermal inertia absorb the heat of the solar radiation store
it and restore it in phase shift (in offset with the
absorption time This maes it possible in winter to
