Vivienda fiscal para la F.A.C. en territorio semiaridos aislados de la alta Guajira

Abstract

This project begins with the identification and improvement of the main shortcomings that military architecture currently has in units built in the Colombian Guajira, this being the warmest territory in the country. From an analysis in macro, meso and micro scales, it was identified that the military units of this region have had a growth of functionalist character but not a planned design of the integration of the zones that requires a base, therefore, it has given greater priority to the functional and operational design of military dynamics, leaving aside the concept of "habitat" within this type of units, taking into account that a military base is also the place of residence of families; In addition, an architecture that responds to the climate, the territory or the important and current environmental awareness has not been implemented, thus generating conventional buildings that require air conditioning systems, among others. For this reason, the general design of the new Flor de la Guajira air base is proposed focused on the residential area, responding to an architecture that seeks to adapt to the climate and the territory, improving the housing quality of the members of the FAC and their families through 3 general guidelines. - The revitalization of the ecological structure, strengthening the native reforestation

This project begins with the identification and improvement of the main shortcomings that military architecture currently has in units built in the Colombian Guajira, this being the warmest territory in the country. From an analysis in macro, meso and micro scales, it was identified that the military units of this region have had a growth of functionalist character but not a planned design of the integration of the zones that requires a base, therefore, it has given greater priority to the functional and operational design of military dynamics, leaving aside the concept of "habitat" within this type of units, taking into account that a military base is also the place of residence of families; In addition, an architecture that responds to the climate, the territory or the important and current environmental awareness has not been implemented, thus generating conventional buildings that require air conditioning systems, among others. For this reason, the general design of the new Flor de la Guajira air base is proposed, focused on the residential area, responding to an architecture that seeks to adapt to the climate and the territory, improving the housing quality of the members of the FAC and their families through 3 general guidelines. - The revitalization of the ecological structure, strengthening the native reforestation. - The implementation of strategies based on natural forms of cooling. - The improvement of habitat and image in the design of spaces proposed for families within a military unit. To respond to these approaches, a research based on the techniques used by architecture in similar climatic conditions, such as Iranian architecture, which uses efficient ways to achieve a comfortable climate using wind towers (badgir) that allow the temperature decrease significantly within a building, without using energy, generating a positive change in the atmospheric sensation with the use of a natural resource, in this case, the wind. Finally, the main contribution of the project is the implementation of bioclimatic within the military architecture through an innovative model of fiscal housing that uses a technique adapted to capture the wind generating a thermosyphon effect and thus refresh the environment inside the house, in addition The use of an endemic material of the region (the yotojoro) for non-structural elements, such as railings and decorative panels, is potentiated.
