The main objective of this study is to provide more data on the use of natural
pozzolan located in the region of Beni-Saf west of Algeria as a substitute for
cement mortars made with different percentages of pozzolan. We also analysed
the effectiveness of the addition of natural pozzolan on the thermal properties of
the mortar. To do this, the measuring instruments were installed in order to
quantify the overall interior environment and particularly the thermal
environment. Since the thermal environment is characterized by physical
quantities; the air temperature, the wall temperature and the air humidity, this
allows assessing the level of the energy consumption and thermal behaviour of
the envelope of the structure to verify the conformity of housing for thermal
comfort requirements. The building's energy efficiency improvement approach
must be thought globally, which not only focus both on the frame (building
materials), but also on the equipment and component systems. In order for the
process to be completed, it should also incorporate the use of renewable
energies. The regulation is handled by robots that are more or less complex
according to the requirements of the initial specifications and the type of
individual housing construction, collective or tertiary. These controllers can
process the measurement information (temperature, humidity ..) and status (on
/ off ...) of heating, cooling and lighting to adjust, optimize, secure and counting
consumed energy. To improve thermal comfort in a building and save energy, it is
necessary to implement special performance materials, providing good thermal
insulation.
