Abstract
Traditional rural buildings reflect the building techniques inherited from ancestors, where materials mastery is proved. In this job we analyse the structure of one of the most relevant Spanish traditional agrarian building: the casa de corral(yard house). Thirty seven corrales (yards) of the vernacular earthen construction in the Paramo de Leon(Leon, Spain) were analysed. It was necessary think up an analysis method, which we called round analysis method. Generally. radial cross sections of the yard have a main space between two earth walls bearing over stone foundation, which support floor framing, the roof framing, roof sheathing and arabic curved tiles. A gantry is usually built inward the yard, on a stone base
