Abstract
The main object of the this paper is to study the effect of the mix proportions with flax shive as filling agent in composite system on selected physico-mechanical properties of the light weight composites in influence of new kind of lime-silica binder. The article presents eco-friendly composite thermal insulation materials designed as an alternative to traditional cement-lime binders. When adapted to local raw material resources of a particular region the structural materials can prove to be a promising material for eco-friendly timber frame housing construction in the Republic of Belarus, which is to some extent a revival of the millennial experience in the use of crop waste when constructing low-rise buildings.
