Central de abastos para el municipio de Barrancabermeja, Santander

Abstract

The proposed project Central de Abastos for the municipality of Barrancabermeja, is proposed under a methodological scheme of nine phases. Comprised by: the systems of supply centers, the study of markets, food supply, storage conditions, market types according to their geographic scope, architectural references, territoriality, design determinants and design criteria of the proposal. Likewise, 3 typological referents are taken, at an international, national and regional level, for their study of implementation, structuring systems, composition and functionality, rescuing a series of basic and characteristic parameters of these supply complexes that allows the centered proposal of 5 base modules that are repeated under a metallic prefabricated construction system, for its resistance to long lights and rapid installation, thinking of a system that allows a rapid development and adjusts to the needs of the land for future expansion of the plant. In addition, the project is based on the conceptual theoretical reference of functionalism through Louis Sullivan "The form always follows the function" that allows the development of a proposal aimed at the development of functional solutions to storage problems, shelf life of food and the development of the module adjusted to the physical and natural environment that surrounds it, in response to the difficult conditions of its location. The connection of the network of perishable food products (fruits, vegetables, grains, tubers and fish) of the municipality of Barrancabermeja and its border area with the proposed supply complex, as a centrality of these activities, is proposed. From there, a system of five modules is proposed that respond to the specific needs of the different types of food that are distributed within the proposal. Finally, this complex of modules is distributed through a rotation system focused on the useful life of food, which is based on the distance and time traveled between the entry and exit of the same, to give order to the road network of the complex and the rotation of products (food).
