Diseño de vivienda multifamiliar en altura en el barrio El Recreo en Barrancabermeja Santander

Abstract

Multifamily housing is defined as a tower or block type construction intended for residential use, in which different apartments designed and adapted to house different groups of families are grouped together. These buildings share common areas and services. In this project, an investigative methodology is adopted that is based on the analysis of various typologies of multifamily housing, extracting principles applicable to the context of the Santander city, Barrancabermeja. In addition, modular architecture and its design principles are explored to generate a structural, functional and formal module adaptable to the project, with the aim of promoting modular constructions in the metropolitan area. To characterize the El Recreo neighborhood, information from the Territorial Planning Plan (POT) is used to analyze the optimal location of the project. Then, the predominant family types in Barrancabermeja are identified using data from the National Administrative Department of Statistics (DANE), establishing the main family units as the objective of the project. Finally, the result of this research is presented as a modular architectural design proposal that responds to the environment of Barrancabermeja in a formal, functional, structural and urban environmental manner that is in accordance with the characteristics of its main families.
