Environmental simulations for material selection in temporary housing design in tropical weather conditions.

In order to mitigate the impact caused by the loss of home due to the constant natural events that take place, this proposal gives a proper building system design that allows temporary housing for the affected. In this regard, there was a number of environmental simulations with digital media techno...

Con el fin de mitigar el impacto que causa la pérdida del hogar debido a los constantes eventos naturales, se propone el diseño de un sistema constructivo adecuado que permita el alojamiento temporal de los afectados; para esto, se desarrollaron una serie de simulaciones ambientales con medios digitales, que permitieron conocer el desempeño térmico de materiales seleccionados previamente según lineamientos del Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), en relación con los componentes de edificio como cimentación, estructura, envolvente y cubierta, en climas tropicales, aplicado a Bogotá y Girardot. Asimismo, se explora la relación entre los materiales con cuatro configuraciones de diseño y siete tipos de ventilación, a fin de obtener una respuesta multidimensional y sostenible. Como resultado se encontróque materiales como guadua, fibras vegetales y fibras sintéticas, sumado a estrategias de aislamiento y configuraciones de ventilación, pueden aportar al confort térmico en el diseño de alojamientos temporales en el contexto colombiano.
