“…The cost of building 1 m 2 of wall depends directly on the construction time through labor costs. Moreover, in the simplest case, the cost is also affected by the type and volume of materials and construction equipment being used [23]. In general, the cost of erecting 1 m 2 of wall is one of the most important factors determining which technology will be chosen to make the division wall.…”

Building construction based on ecological, locally available, and slightly processed materials have a positive effect on the environment and local economy. Due to its simplicity, and thus possibility to erect a building on one's own and using inexpensive materials, it may potentially become a solution to satisfy the continuously growing demand for residential buildings. In the paper, three variants of ecological external walls were proposed: a wall made of clay blocks insulated with mineral wool boards; a wall made of clay compacted in formwork insulated with mineral wool boards; and a wooden frame structure filled with straw bales and cladded with fiberboards. The layers of the walls were chosen in such a manner that the heat transfer coefficient values for the studied variants are as equal as possible (0.2 W/m 2 K), thus allowing for a reliable comparative study. The cost calculation of each variant of walls construction was made. The obtained results allow selection of a more advantageous solution.

“…e most important features of a building characterized by sustainable development can be described using four Rs: reduce, reuse, recycle, and recover [2]. Less material and energy are used to build such a building compared to conventional construction e materials used should be recycled and should allow for reuse after the end of the life of the building.…”

Similarly to any other industry, the construction sector puts emphasis on innovativeness, unconventional thinking, and alternative ideas. At present, when sustainable development, ecology, and awareness of people's impact on the environment grow in importance, low impact buildings can become an innovative alternative construction technology for the highly industrialized construction sector. e paper presents a comparative study of three walls made of available materials used locally, which can be classified as biosourced materials, in terms of construction time. e comparison of times necessary to make 1 m 2 of the wall allows us to decide which building technology is more advantageous in terms of the construction duration. A shorter construction time means lower labour costs and lower expenses for construction machines. In order to obtain answers to the questions posed, the authors made extensive searches of source data on the time-consuming building works which used locally sourced materials. Reference is made to "Temporary principles of erecting clay buildings" issued by the Institute of Housing Construction in Warsaw (Poland). ree types of walls made of locally sourced materials were studied: a wall made of clay blocks insulated with mineral wool boards, a wall made of clay compacted in formwork, and one insulated with mineral wool boards and wooden frame structure filled with straw bales and cladded with fibreboards. e layers have been chosen in such a manner that heat transfer coefficient values for the studied variants are as equal as possible (0.2 W/m 2 K), thus allowing a reliable comparative study.
