The main aim of this work was to study the possibility of using straw bales in building construction. To achieve that, it was urgent to investigate the physical, mechanical and thermal properties of two types of straw (wheat and barley) at different densities. Thermal performance and stability of the walls that made of these straw bales were also studied. aaaaaa aaaaaa aaaaaaaa aaaaaa aaaaaaaaaa aaaaa
