Uso de materiales laminares para el diseño de envolventes en edificios parametrizados.

Abstract

The project focuses on the use of laminar material to create an envelope that responds to the climatic and site conditions in the Condominio Chile, located in the Barrio del Astillero in Guayaquil. The main objective is to improve solar incidence, solar radiation, illuminance and noise in the building. An optimized envelope is sought by analyzing data from official sources and software specialized in climate analysis. The 7-story building is located in Guayaquil, on a corner plot with facades facing south and west. The project considers a passive climate analysis based on solar radiation, solar incidence and illuminance, based on studies by entities such as INAHMI and the Ecuadorian Construction Standard, as well as software such as Climate Consultant and "Ladybug" in Grasshopper. Noise in the area and its effects are also explored, using WHO information and local studies. Strategies are proposed to mitigate these effects and composite aluminium is selected as an appropriate material, using fold as the main method. An example module is developed that adapts to the envelope, using the Galapagos optimization plugin in Grasshopper to determine the best option. The project is based on measurements and data, and will be evaluated to demonstrate improvement in the aspects studied. In summary, the project seeks to create an architectural envelope that responds effectively to climate and site conditions, improving the quality of life in the building and demonstrating its effectiveness through analysis and quantifiable results.
