Abstract

Building area expose to sunlight or increasing temperature has demanded for more cooling system. So multidimensional path can be followed by using natural stone as tiles and blocks in construction. Use of natural stone will help to reduce the energy consumption, increasing level of global warming and will maintain the interior floors and walls of room cool. Property such as thermal conductivity, resistivity and diffusivity and other characteristics of a natural stone become an important factor in selecting them in construction purpose. Natural stone can have minimal carbon footprint in construction and multidimensional development. The naturally available and economic material can be used to partially replace the artificial product which harms the environment. Natural stone used in construction purpose were studied and their thermal properties were calculated by using thermostatic oven and infra
red thermometer and result was manipulated with cement and ceramics tiles and blocks.
