In the community of Rancha (Ayacucho), there is a high percentage of adobe housing, which is widely used due to its low cost. However, this material presents variations in relation to its resistant capacity and insufficient thermal insulation, the latter being more affected due to the low temperatures of the area. In addition, the density and absorption percentage are not the same for all adobe bricks, since the materials used differ due to the area, climate, etc. The proposed solution is to add PET fibers to the adobe. Therefore, the objective of this work is to determine the effect of PET fibers on the compressive strength, density, absorption percentage and thermal conductivity of adobe. The procedure consists of preparing samples of standard adobe and adobe with PET fibers (2%, 4%, 6%), which will be tested based on the E.080 (adobe) and E.070 (masonry) standards. After performing all the tests, it was determined that the optimum percentage of PET fibers is 6%, since its compressive strength in units increased by 19% and in masonry by 62%. On the other hand, the density was reduced by 16.4%, the absorption percentage by 12% and the thermal conductivity by 35%. For this reason, the proposal contributes to the recycling of PET bottles, to the improvement of the mechanical and physical properties of adobe to extend its life span and to improve thermal comfort inside homes.
