Study the Thermal Impact of Massive Waste Material to Building

Abstract

This study has been focused on the recycling of massive waste materials and their thermal impact to the building which then adapt the indoor thermal environment. It is observed that the role of construction materials modify the building interior and regulates the indoor thermal environment and focus on the reduction of energy consumption at large.
The rapid growth of energy consumption and use has raised concerns over problems in worldwide. This has caused for mainly the exhaustion of energy resources. Efficient employs of energy plays a vital role in minimizing energy usage. Having in mind the aim to seek for contextual alternative building material from waste to obtain continuing improvement in building energy performance, this study has been designed to do experiments on locally available massive waste material (end-of-life tyres, or ELTs) for its thermal impact on indoor energy management.
In that reason we needed to set up an experiment to observe the role of ELT for thermal comfort in tropical climate and that compare with conventional construction materials and other waste. The experimental setup has been installed in IIUM- Gombak campus, Malaysia. This contribution mainly focused on the literature and a proposed methodology.
