Focused on the waterproofing of raw earth panels, the research evaluates different natural waterproofing agents regarding their effectiveness against water absorption and potential pathologies. The justification emphasizes the urgency of adopting construction methods aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially SDG-11. The specific objectives aim to provide insights for the widespread adoption of conscious and ecologically responsible construction practices. By exploring lipid sources in natural waterproofing agents, such as those found in Aloe vera and cooking oil, the research promotes the diversity of inputs, reinforcing the importance of shifting towards eco-friendly methods amid current environmental challenges. In summary, the study not only addressed the technical aspects of waterproofing, presenting results in decreasing order for soybean oil, Aloe vera, Opuntia cochenillifera leaf, and Musa spp stem but also highlighted the crucial connection between sustainable construction practices and the urgent need for approaches and practices in bioconstruction.Acesso AbertoBioconstruçãoSustentabilidadePlacas de terra cruaImpermeabilizaçãoBioconstructionSustainabilityRaw earth panelsWaterproofingTrabalho de Conclusão de CursoENGENHARIAS
