Today, in Peru, climate change—exacerbated by the coastal El Niño and La Niña phenomena—along with the low and marked rural socioeconomic levels, presents a significant challenge to the lifestyle of people living in these areas. Rural housing, characterized by simple and basic infrastructure, is disadvantaged in coping with the fast-changing climate in their environment. In this context, this research aims to propose a design for a mixture of adobe, a locally sought-after construction material, incorporating wood shavings and rice husks. The goal is to improve the thermal comfort and absorption properties of the material, focusing in Huarangal, a rural populated center in the Ica desert. The research references current Peruvian regulations, such as standards E.080, 399.613, IEEE 442, and ASTM D5334, to assess the feasibility of the proposed adobe mix through soil and unit cost analysis and to demonstrate that it is superior to conventional adobe based on warping, absorption, compression, and thermal conductivity tests. Five different types of adobe mixtures are created: conventional adobe, adobe with 2% wood shavings, and adobe with 2% wood shavings combined with 1%, 1.5%, and 2% rice husks to evaluate their properties through tests. Ecotect software is used to model examples of rural single-family homes built with conventional adobe and two of the best proposed adobe types. These models undergo simulations of thermal and humidity conditions in the study area to determine the most effective material. As a result, the standout material is the proposed adobe type with 2% wood shavings and 2% rice husks, meeting expectations for improved material quality and achieving the desired thermal comfort and moisture absorption.
