MASTERPLAN
The main idea of the scheme, involves two issues: on the one hand, the creation of a great core that will turn into the main educational space. This core will permit the addition of new enclosures in order to remark the initial idea.
On the other hand, the scheme takes into account important requirements such as security safety, durability, or resistence over metheorologicals suffers, matters that will give us the final concept’s form.
The scheme has being thought in a necessary way in order to provide great results in terms of enviromental cares so it takes into account the construction techniques as an essential part of the process.
LOCATION
The project located in the village called Sanfe Bagar, is surrounded by a abrupt topography, where the contrast between the inclinable and virgin mountains and the extremely and horizontal cultivated lands characterizes the organic beauty landscape.. The arranged and strategic paths and the crossing beds of different magnitude structure the location in this village, which compact formation shows the adversity of the climatic conditions.
CONTEXT
The building is isolated. The contact with the village take place in the continuation of the existing road to the old clinic. The building sites in the back of the little clinic. The new construction seemed like a near object, sight and with enough autonomy.
SELF-SUSTENTAIBLE BUILDING
Construction‘s energy charges are reduced ad minimun by the issues of local materials.
The pick up and primary production systems orientation towards the sun makes this the main energetic power source. The south oriented construction becomes the perfect place for the storage and distribution systems,
Building south’ s face has captation of solar energy and every sistem of stockage and distribution, the solar glazing , the big space covert by transparent plastics (air cams) where the air recirculation into the indoor spaces.
WATER CONSUMPTION - The management of waters
The collection of rainwater is carried out from the roofs channel until the water tank, which is located in the north facade. In the same side, its possible to locate the waste tank, which collects solid wastes; the latter ones are coming from the domestic consumption in the building and from septic and ventilated tank. Recycling of theses wastes on site is done making compost organic in order to green herb.
MATERIALS
LIST.
1.- roofing form by natural stone pieces 10 mm thickness with ligation and minimal superposition of 20 mm. Mounted on a board formed by two slices of local wood of 15 mm thickness and inner pieces of wood xx mm xx mm . All pegged to a secondary wood structure. And a zinc drain of 2mm thickness
2.- roofing made of traded-trunks timberwork of 150 mm diameter, mounted on wood timberwork ass detail. boards of wood 30 mm thickness. adobe layer of 200 mm with a superior layer of alumina mixed with lime
3.-flooring made of traded-trunks timberwork of 150 mm diameter, mounted on wood timberwork ass detail. Double board of wood 20 mm thickness, with superficial finish grinded and dim lacqer.
4.-flooring made of board platform of 100 mm x 50 mm each 500 mm, and wood framework with superficial finish grinded and dim lacqer.
5.- supporting base of natural stone and concrete foundations for divider supporters
6.-supporting base of natural stone and concrete foundations for supporters, between foundations instead of concrete will appear stone.
7.- cooling system formed by a hot-cool exchange airtube, formed by walls of natural stone 150 mm thickness, floor of 50mm made of adoba mixed with lime and a wood board cover of 15mm thickness
8.-walling made of natural stone masonry of 600 mm thickness, exterior layer of 350 mm, 100 mm air tube, and inner layer of adobe 150mm thickness. and waterproof base
9.- wood joinery, double glass embelish window
10.- wood joinery, double glass embelish window for cooling regulation
11.- divider made of two boards of local wood of 15mm thickness with inner board platform of 150mm x 50mm. white painted finish
12.-primary wood structure joints reinforced by iron screws, built ass details
13.- wall made of adobe of 150 mm of thickness, exterior waterproof finish, and interior white
painted finish
14.-double glass embelish window
15.-double glass cooling window built ass detail
16.-iron string 15 mm diameter with strains built ass detail
17.- natural compressed terrain
The use of local materials like stone has been harnessed, marinates, wood and straw; and the use of local manual labor. An interpretation of the techniques can be appraised natives of construction, adopted to obtain comfortable spaces and with suitable seismic resistance. The use of natural stone and dirt used for mortars and blocks will be excavated next to the site in a trip of truck from the possible nearest region.
NATURAL ILUMINATION
All the building is illuminated thanks to the opening of hollows in facades that allow solar light to introduce sifted by the presence of eaves that protect from direct radiation. Two “lucernarios” placed in the central zone allows natural illumination being this an element that also contributes in the ventilation system for the hot seassons.
CONSTRUCTIVE TECHNIQUES
The building is constructively divided in three differentiated parts:
the laying of foundations, that lodges the part of thermal preparation is built from simple techniques of air chambers of easy and ordered construction that create a non-aggressive and resistant contact with the ground. The mud cooked in manually manageable pieces is used like main material.
The main structure, made of wood, conforms a skeleton that along with the cables, equip the building with the necessary character to hold the meteorological inclemencies and a efficient behavior of the structure in case of earthquake. The structure is executed so that construction qualities of the wood are harnessed, preserving its durability. The unions are made with screws and the positioning of these and cables in the outside does not have greater technical complexity than a correct explanation in the place.
The envelope of the building is formed by closings to the local natural stone conforming walls with air chambers. The technique fused with the local tradition is reflected in this type of constructive gestures, where the local techniques are implemented and improved by knowledge that, in our way to constructions are acquired knowledge. This leads to a ventilated and luminous, acclimated central space, fundamental characteristic for the community. The cover is made of a metalic material.
FLEXIBILIY
- The activity diagrams show the specific use of particular zones of the organism. being the areas out of service unplugged, with the consequent energy and space saving.
- Services enclosures assume different kinds of plugs in the central space, being turn in / off according the order of the day.
- Administrative and educations areas are separated.
- Diagnosis area are isolated.
OPERATIVE BEHAVIOUR
The use of local materials like stone has been harnessed, marinates, wood and straw; and the use of local manual labor. An interpretation of the techniques can be appraised native’s construction, adopted to obtain comfortable spaces and with suitable seismic resistance. The use of natural stone and dirt used for mortars and blocks will be excavated next to the site in a trip of truck from the the possible nearest region.
SOCIAL ASPECTS
The social hearth of this project consists to instruct a local population in such a way that its will generate easily, with an effective policy of self-management, on a short term.
Thanks to the technical tools, which were facilitated from the organization of the project and thanks to the participative feeling from everybody, the community could to focus its attention on to develop the socials aspect, which constitute it, together with the access to necessary technology in order to get the development of a community
ECONOMICS ASPECTS
The project opts to use a constructive system in agreement with the financial constraint imposed, it's basing on a method of the maximum effectiveness and minimum expenditure, obtained thanks to assimilate a idea about to built by themselves properly.
This idea consists in instructing the local craftsman and craftswoman, and giving them the opportunity to use their tools whenever they are included in the advance of the technician, which will be useful to them, while its contributing to develop the experience to use it in their profession in the future.
