Scientific organizations have taken an active attitude in energy- and resource-saving in buildings. New regulatory requirements for thermal protection of buildings standardized the principles of gradual reduction of thermal energy consumption for heating buildings in order to reduce the level of building energy consumption by at least 30-40% in a short time frame. Based on this, it follows that today in the world and in the country the problem of improving the thermal protective properties of building enclosing structures is one of the most urgent tasks in construction. One of the solutions to the problem of increasing the thermal protection of buildings is the use of diatomite and bentonite additives in the composition of energy-saving ceramic bricks. The main one is the design and development of new energy-and resource-saving ceramic bricks that can provide the required level of thermal protection while maintaining the previous design considerations of buildings. The current economic conditions in the country determine a new approach to choosing effective building materials for housing construction. Therefore, recently there is an urgent need for new wall materials that have energy- and resource-saving properties.
