Özet:
Bio-based and earthen building materials have recently started to be used again in seeking sustainable materials to combat climate change. Hemp-based building materials stand out as energy-efficient materials due to their favorable thermal properties, although they still have unstandardized features that vary by location. This study aims to investigate the thermal properties and energy performance of hemp-clay building blocks which are produced with local hemp and clay in the western Aegean region of Turkey for today and the future, leading up the research on hemp-based building materials in the Mediterranean region. The methodology of the research consists of laboratory experiments on material and building energy simulations via DesignBuilder software. Building block samples were produced with 27 different hemp-clay mixtures and tested using a quick thermal conductivity meter. Subsequently, the thermal performance of selected hemp-clay block was compared with conventional wall infill materials such as hollow clay brick, autoclaved aerated concrete, and lightweight pumice block via simulations of the annual energy consumption of an existing residential building in Izmir. Simulation scenarios were generated keeping wall thickness and U-value as constant for the climate of 2020, 2050, and 2080. Hemp-clay building blocks reduced the heating and cooling demands of the case building by 21% and 14%, respectively in 2020. Their energy performance outperformed the other materials’ performances even if the scenario walls have the same U-value as hemp-clay walls in today's and the future’s climate conditions. Consequently, the hemp-clay building blocks are apparent as a promising material to be improved in Turkey.
