The incorporation of natural waste into clay blocks enhances their properties. This article presents the findings of research on clay blocks enriched with natural waste from traditional Moroccan industries, specifically broken pottery waste and wood ash. The study emphasizes the thermal properties of these blocks, particularly comparing their thermal conductivities and diffusivities. Mechanical properties are assessed through compressive strength measurements, while physical properties are determined by density. The findings show a significant improvement in the insulating capacities of the analyzed blocks. A mixture of 50% clay, 30% wood ash, and 20% broken pottery waste provided optimal thermal resistance, allowing for the construction of environmental barriers with enhanced heat resistance akin to conventional houses.

摘要

The incorporation of natural waste into clay blocks enhances their properties. This article presents the findings of research on clay blocks enriched with natural waste from traditional Moroccan industries, specifically broken pottery waste and wood ash. The study emphasizes the thermal properties of these blocks, particularly comparing their thermal conductivities and diffusivities. Mechanical properties are assessed through compressive strength measurements, while physical properties are determined by density. The findings show a significant improvement in the insulating capacities of the analyzed blocks. A mixture of 50% clay, 30% wood ash, and 20% broken pottery waste provided optimal thermal resistance, allowing for the construction of environmental barriers with enhanced heat resistance akin to conventional houses.
