Abstract

The energy rehabilitation of buildings is an opportunity for the economy of a countrybecause it can create jobs and reduce energy consumption. Similarly, it is an issue ofgreat environmental importance allowing reducing carbon emissions and promotingsustainable construction.This paper presents a system for measuring the thermal conductivity, aimed atachieving results efficiently (proper knowledge vs. low cost) applicable to thepreliminary exploration for proposing new lines of research in cement-basedcomposites. Designed and built system works at steady state, in thermal equilibriumand cylindrical geometry. The method facilitates the use of molds in the preparation ofsamples.We present results of thermal conductivities in traditional lightweight concretes andcement-wood composites to explore their utility as thermal insulating materials forenergy rehabilitation and progress towards more sustainable building.
