520			_aABSTRACT The usage of adobe material in construction in nowadays has been limited. The material has been proven to be sustainable construction materials in terms of economy, structural strength and thermal comfort. In Nigeria, the usage of adobe material is very dominant especially in areas where there is shortage of constructional materials and limited access to the modern building techniques and materials. However, the locally available material had suffered a great deal of misusage in terms of construction know-how and standardization of buildings guides/codes. Absence of adobe building standard had contributed to this problem across the country. This research uses Turkish adobe building standards to compare among other countries. Turkey happened to be having a more comprehensive standard which was used in comparison with existing adobe buildings specifications in Northern Nigeria. The area of focus for the comparison is the CI/SfB Construction Indexing Manual; structure and sub structure category of buildings elements. At the end of the research, several problems were identified which they were the most challenging factors hindering the sustainability of adobe building in Northern Nigeria. Therefore, recommendations of building dimensions and techniques were outlined especially in regards to foundation and wall which were identified to be the weak link of adobe buildings in Northern Nigeria. Keywords: Adobe Material, Turkish Standard, Northern Nigeria, Turkey.
