Research on the Application of Straw Bale Houses in Northwest Rural Area

Article Preview

Abstract:

Energy-efficient problems for houses need to be solved, with poorly insulated housing used in northwest rural area of China requiring large amounts of energy for house warming. The application of straw bale houses in domestic and overseas indicates straw bale houses’ benefits. This article compares straw bale houses with traditional structures and analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of straw bale houses, also points out the feasibility and prospects of the utilization of straw bale houses in northwest rural area.
