Abstract

The ABNT NBR 15.575, published in July 2013, is a watershed in common Brazilianconstruction practices because it establishes for the first time performance‐based buildingstandards. This regulation affects not only the way buildings are constructed but also how theyare maintained and sold. The new standard will induce architects and engineers to search forbetter construction solutions. Within this context, earthen constructions have the potential tomeet the new standard’s performance requirements. This article aims to (i) briefly present themain aspects of the new performance standard, (ii) contextualise this standard within theevolution of building codes and (iii) point out how earthen techniques can satisfactorily meetthe building performance standards recently established.
