Introduction of adobe houses:

Since there are still a huge number of adobe houses in our countryside, it is still necessary to study the performance of adobe houses at this stage, and as a supplement to the building structure, the adobe houses still have their applicability.

In terms of thermal insulation and moisturizing, adobe houses have a relatively good performance. Clay walls are generally 500-600mm thick and have sufficient thermal resistance to insulate and retain heat well.

Another performance of clay is able to maintain a certain humidity, air humidity is too low then evaporate some of the water to improve air humidity. Rainy season humidity is too large to absorb some of the water vapor in order to reduce the humidity of the small indoor environment.

Generally adobe buildings will choose clay rammed, inside and outside each brush a layer of lime-water mud, leveling can be. The upper placed on the wall beams, similar to the row structure of monolithic industrial plants, but the beams are not articulated.

The beams are placed on the roof frame, cladding tiles.
