Tendencies of Adapting Building Materials and Constructive Solutions to the Present Climate Changes

Abstract The changes occurred on the climate are a reality that produces changes within the socio-economic environment. Climate change is largely due to greenhouse gas emissions generated by human, domestic and economic activities. In this climate, the constructive solutions of buildings must take into account climate changes and meet new requirements. In this context, building materials must improve and correspond to the new paradigm so as to fulfill their basic role, namely: - creating an indoor climate corresponding to the hygienic-sanitary and thermal, - comfort requirements in residential and socio-cultural buildings, - ensuring the necessary indoor climate for carrying out economic activities reducing, as much as possible, the energy consumption for space heating.
