Evidence of thermal performance is equally discouraging. That is why this study enquiries about the ability of cob to provide thermal comfort in buildings, considering the different climates of the Peruvian territory and comparing it with the most common construction systems in the environment: adobe and brick masonry. As of the previous characterization of the components’ thermal qualities, the carrying out of dynamic thermal simulations and comparing the performance of different digital prototypes, the virtues of cob to provide thermal comfort in buildings were identified. The good performance of the material is attributed to the marked balance between a medium thermal mass and a relatively low thermal conductivity. It is the only one that meets the requirements of the current Peruvian energy efficiency standard in the case of colder climates. Additionally, the ecological advantages associated to the use of natural, renewable and biodegradable materials in the composition of the proposed construction system are highlighted. Las soluciones constructivas tradicionales y contemporáneas han demostrado tener serias limitaciones en la solución del déficit cualitativo y cuantitativo de la vivienda y el equipamiento, de igual manera, las evidencias del desempeño térmico son igualmente desalentadoras. Es por lo que se indaga sobre la capacidad de la tierra alivianada de brindar confort térmico en los edificios, considerando los diferentes climas del territorio peruano y comparándola con los sistemas constructivos más comunes en el medio: el adobe y la albañilería de ladrillo. A partir de la caracterización previa de las cualidades térmicas de los componentes y de la realización de simulaciones térmicas dinámicas, comparando el desempeño de diferentes prototipos digitales, se identificaron las virtudes de la tierra alivianada por el marcado equilibrio entre una masa térmica media y una conductividad térmica relativamente baja, siendo los únicos que logran cumplir con las exigencias de la actual norma peruana de eficiencia energética para el caso de los climas más fríos. Adicionalmente de destaca la composición a partir de materiales naturales, renovables y biodegradables que son ventajas ecológicas.
