Studies were conducted to thermal and mechanical resistance. Inside the mold EPS plates were placed in order to obtain a higher thermal resistance on the wall constructed, as well as to give it an end environmentally friendly in view of both the tire and the EPS occupy a large space in landfills and year need to be degraded when released into the environment. Compression tests were performed according to ABNT blocks to seal, measurements of the temperature variation in the external and internal walls using a laser thermometer and check the temperature of the indoor environment using a thermocouple attached to a digital thermometer. The experiments demonstrated the heat provided by the composite values from the temperature difference between the internal and external surfaces on the walls, reaching levels of 12.4 ? C and room temperature in the interior space of the Science of 33.3 ? C, remaining within the zone thermal comfort for hot climate countries. It was also demonstrated the proper mechanical strength of such a composite for sealing walls. The proposed use of the composite can contribute to reducing the extreme housing shortage in our country, producing popular homes at low cost and with little time to work / Foi constru?do o Espa?o Ci?ncia utilizando um comp?sito constitu?do de gesso, EPS, pneu triturado, cimento e ?gua. Foram realizados estudos de resist?ncias t?rmica e mec?nica. No interior do molde foram colocadas placas de EPS com o intuito de se obter uma maior resist?ncia t?rmica nas paredes constru?das, como tamb?m dar-lhe um fim ecologicamente correto, tendo em vista que tanto o pneu quanto o EPS ocupam grande espa?o em aterros sanit?rios e necessitam de anos para serem degradados quando lan?ados ao meio ambiente. Foram realizados ensaios de compress?o segundo as normas da ABNT para blocos de veda??o, medi??es da varia??o de temperatura nas paredes externas e internas utilizando um term?metro a laser e verifica??o da temperatura do ambiente interno utilizando um termopar acoplado a um term?metro digital. Os experimentos t?rmicos demonstraram os valores proporcionados pelo comp?sito a partir da diferen?a de temperatura entre as superf?cies internas e externas nas paredes, alcan?ando n?veis de 12,4?C e temperatura ambiente no interior do espa?o ci?ncia, de 33,3 ?C ficando dentro da zona de conforto t?rmico para pa?ses de clima quente. Demonstrou-se tamb?m apropriada resist?ncia mec?nica de tal comp?sito para paredes de veda??o. A utiliza??o do comp?sito proposto pode contribuir para a diminui??o do extremo d?ficit habitacional do nosso pa?s, produzindo resid?ncias populares a baixo custo e com pequeno tempo de obra
