Bioclimatic Strategies and User Comfort in Homes in the Simon Bolivar District—Cerro de Pasco 2022

Abstract

The objective of this research is to propose bioclimatic strategies that allow the comfort of users, the district has evidence of air pollution generated by mining companies in the last 40 years that causes the inhabitants to develop toxic diseases, as well as the lack of living spaces that provide comfort to its inhabitants. As a methodology, bioclimatic design strategies were applied that respond to the climatology and topography of the place, also a historical analysis of its construction systems and the levels of contamination by heavy metals in the study site was developed, the processing of the information was supported by digital tools (AutoCAD, Revit, Excel). The results obtained in the proposal are the capture of solar radiation supported by the thick mud and stone walls that works as thermal insulation, as well as the thermal sheet floors in the rest areas to generate thermal insulation, which is a very thin and flexible laminated electric heater that allows distributing heat throughout the surface, the uniform heat rises to a maximum of 28 ℃, also the incorporation of flora that allows minimizing polluting metals caused by mining found in an area. In conclusion, an adequate design with ecological materials allows to provide comfort to the users, making use of clean energies, and taking care of the environment.
