DISEÑO DE VIVIENDAS UNIFAMILIARES DE INTERÉS SOCIAL UTILIZANDO PRINCIPIOS SOSTENIBLES EN LAS 4 REGIONES DEL ECUADOR

Abstract

In the following undergraduate degree project, the design of a single-family house of sustainable social interest in the 4 regions of Ecuador is proposed, in order to know the importance of the study of the different existing climatic conditions, for the correct architectural design of the houses. One of the big problems of social housing in Ecuador is the lack of application of criteria and strategies, which has caused these type designs to be implemented in any region without taking into account the climate as an important factor, resulting in discomfort in the daily lives. The application of sustainable principles in social interest housing provides many benefits for low-income families, both from the economic to the environmental, which is why its usefulness stands out. Through the mixed research method it was possible to carry out the development of this project, in which the architectural design of two types of housing was finally carried out, and it was also possible to establish characteristics and strategies according to the climatic state of each region so that they can be used when designing
