Diseño de una Estacion de Bomberos para el Municipio de Villanueva, Santander

Abstract

A fire station coordinates, supports and manages the technique operationally to the fire departments for the attention of the different emergencies related to the integral management of the risk against fires and the different preparations and attention for the rescue in all the modalities and incidents with hazardous materials. The municipality of Villanueva currently does not have a spatial organization which indicates the growth of the population, therefore, today measures have been taken for it, one of the most evident problems is that the municipality has a large affectation with regard to the houses, with a great possibility of causing a fire because up to two houses usually burn down per month, since 40% of the inhabitants have houses vulnerable to fire; the last fire was in 2017. Taking into account what was stated above, it is necessary to highlight the importance of this project since it does not focus exclusively on the physical study of the construction of the fire station but also on the benefit that it brings.
