Resumo

Diante do crescente interesse em reduzir o nível de emissões de CO2 geradas pelo setor da construção, nos últimos anos tem-se promovido a busca por alternativas sustentáveis por meio do uso de biomateriais. O objetivo desta pesquisa é apresentar o estado da arte da bioconstrução com paredes de fardos de palha de trigo, abordando seus componentes, sistemas estruturais e propriedades. O artigo baseia-se na análise estatística da produção científica existente, utilizando como metodologias a cienciometria e a bibliometria, por meio da ferramenta Bibliometrix e de sua interface web Biblioshiny. Os resultados das publicações científicas analisadas demonstram a viabilidade e o aproveitamento da palha como material de construção com baixo impacto ambiental. Evidencia-se, ainda, o grande interesse de vários autores devido à sua ampla aplicabilidade. Conclui-se que os fardos de palha de trigo são uma alternativa sustentável e que sua aplicação é apoiada pelo Código Internacional Residencial, pelas Normas profissionais para a construção com palha e pelo Guia de construção com palha: Construção sustentável e isolamento com palha.
