Diseño de vivienda rural en Colombia: Estrategias arquitectónicas para un óptimo confort térmico en climas cálido húmedo, cálido seco, templado y frío húmedo.

Abstract

This thesis addresses the topic of rural housing design in Colombia with thermal comfort in hot humid, hot dry, temperate and cold humid climates. These four base climates are chosen from different thermal floors in different geographical regions. Under these conditions, the question arises: "How to improve the conditions of rural housing with thermal comfort in different climatic conditions from the recognition of passive strategies?". Thus, the objective is to propose formal strategies for the design of rural housing in Colombia with thermal comfort in hot humid, hot dry, temperate and cold humid climates. This objective is pursued through three specific goals: To analyze technical documents and manuals on rural housing typologies, to identify bioclimatic strategies implemented in rural housing in various climates using case studies and, finally, to design rural housing typologies adapted to different geographical areas and climates, with a space specifically designed for the air conditioning of the home. In this way, it is hypothesized that, if a rural housing design is established ignoring passive strategies for thermal comfort in the habitat of different climatic conditions, then a sustainable habitat is not generated. Therefore, formal strategies are important for the design of rural housing in Colombia with thermal comfort in hot humid, warm dry, temperate and cold humid climates.
