The results in the present study were compared with the values reported in a previous work. The thermal conductivity values of 0.697 Wm-1k-1 and 0.620 Wm-1k-1 for mud-brick and cement-plaster was respectively reported (Ajibola and Onabanjo, 1995).The results showed that thermal conductivity in mudbrick was higher than cement-plaster and this was in similar trend with the present study. Etuk et. al., 2005 reported the thermal conductivity value of 0.60 Wm-1k-1 for mud-brick. This value was about 31% higher than the value obtained for laterite-mud sample.
