| Abstract | ||
| In this study, old scrap tire powder was used with building materials commonly used in Iraq, where it was used in some brick holes in the form of powder 0-1 mm, and in this case, it was called scrap tire powder in bricks [ STP-I]. It was compared with the traditional wall that does not contain scrap tires [ STs], which we called No STs. The comparison was by placing a heating source for 8 hours on each wall separately after building it inside a test room prepared for this purpose and by measuring the temperatures on the inner and outer surface and the center of the wall, as well as comparing the thermal resistance and the heat transferred, where we note that the addition of this material may be Reducing the internal surface temperature by 2.56℃, which is a good incentive for this material's role as a thermal insulator. | ||
