Diseño del desarrollo de la aplicación web para el bosquejo, control y manejo presupuestal de construcción de viviendas campestres unifamiliares

Abstract

The objective of this study is to design the development of a web application aimed at the preliminary sketching, control, and budget management of single-family country houses, as a support tool for owners, architects, engineers, and builders during the initial stages of project planning. The proposal arises from difficulties associated with preliminary cost estimation, material management, and the integration of basic design characteristics with budget information, processes that may currently depend on separate tools and manual procedures. The methodology is based on the Scrum agile framework through the definition of epics, user stories, Product Backlog, acceptance criteria, Definition of Ready (DOR), and the planning of a Sprint Zero and three development Sprints. The functionalities were organized into three main components: user management, preliminary housing sketch and design, and budget management. As a result, the functional proposal for a web application was structured to allow user registration and login, project creation, configuration of architectural characteristics, material selection, visualization of housing alternatives, and generation of preliminary budgets with approximate quantities and costs, including export to Excel and PDF formats. Roles, responsibilities, management indicators, and monitoring mechanisms based on the Scrum framework were also established. It is concluded that the proposal constitutes a viable alternative to support the planning and financial management of country housing projects by facilitating decision-making through the integration of architectural and budgetary information within a digital tool
