DESIGN OF ENERGY-EFFICIENT BUILDINGS USING LOCAL THERMAL INSULATION MATERIALS AND DEVELOPMENT OF CONSTRUCTIVE SOLUTIONS

This paper presents a comprehensive study on the design of energy-efficient buildings through the application of locally available thermal insulation materials and the development of advanced constructive solutions. The main objective of the research is to evaluate the thermal and economic performance of insulation materials based on local raw resources, assess their suitability for energy-efficient building envelopes, and propose constructive design solutions adapted to regional climatic conditions. The study employs analytical, comparative, and calculation-based methods to determine heat transfer characteristics and potential energy savings. The results demonstrate that the use of local insulation materials can reduce building energy consumption by 25–45%, while also ensuring economic feasibility, environmental sustainability, and compliance with modern energy-efficiency standards.
