Projeto de habitação social sustentável para famílias de um acampamento no semiárido cearense

Abstract

Access to housing is a factor of great importance for the development of a civilization. In addition to promoting social well-being, quality housing reduces inequalities and promotes a better quality of life for the population. As important as the quality of the housing itself is the quality of the environment in which it is inserted. Thus, the present work aimed to design a residence for the residents of a camp located in Crateús-CE, using the concepts of bioconstruction. Therefore, a qualitative case study of the residents' situation was carried out through meetings. Once the situation was understood, it was possible to identify the most appropriate Bioconstruction techniques, through bibliographic research and an interview with a specialist architect, in order to choose one to be adopted. Adobe was the technique chosen due to its simplicity combined with low cost, the availability of free raw materials and the possibility of using collective efforts to produce adobes and the construction of the house. During a technical visit, in addition to photographic records of the site, a script of questions was applied to raise the specific housing and infrastructure needs for the camp. Four architectural design options were created and presented, developed in a participatory way, in order to meet the real demand of the population. The work developed contributes to the study of design techniques for adobe buildings and to the dissemination of the culture of bioconstruction in the semi-arid region of Ceará, in addition to directly influencing the achievement of quality housing for the residents of the camp.
