Ach- straw Rice and Rubber Crumbs for Energy Saving and Heat Transfer Enhancement in Administrative Buildings Authors

This paper provides a concise summary of the use of recycled Ach-Straw Rice (ASR) and rubber-crumbs in cement bricks, focusing on their impact on improving energy efficiency and heat transfer in both internal and external walls for Administrative Buildings. The study highlights key findings regarding the optimal ratios of rice straw ash and rubber crumbs based on experimental evidence, as well as their potential applications in energy-saving technologies. The environmental benefits of using these recycled materials are also discussed. To support the research, a building model was created using the Design-Builder software. A comparison was made between conventional cement bricks and bricks incorporating rice-straw ash and rubber-crumbs in the construction of the same building. The paper concludes by emphasizing the significance of using these recycled materials in brick wall construction to enhance sustainability and energy efficiency.
