Evolutive housing allows for functional and usage adaptations, making it a desirable architectural design characteristic in the context of social housing. In Portugal, despite being standardized, projects are flexible diverse, catering to variety family arrangements. Currently, Brazil, is standardized into two-bedroom units, even when beneficiary families initially identified. Although various studies analyze quality Brazilian projects, little this research has directly in-fluenced reality...
In Brazil, social housing is standardized into two-bedroom units, even when the beneficiary families have been previously identified. Portugal, despite standardization, projects adopted concept of evolutionary housing. These are flexible proposals with typological diversity, allowing for a variety family arrangements. While numerous studies analyze quality Brazilian projects, few these directly influenced reality implemented. Thus, this study seeks to identify clear and objective parameters...
Climate change impact is one of the most important global concerns at present. In building environment, climate-responsive design may help to enhance adaptation capacity through a better energy performance. this sense, study addresses an strategy reduce effects warming on low-income houses, for which bioclimatic passive strategies should be prioritized, aiming improve environmental sustainability. The technique chosen analyzed thermal mass cooling. Thus, goal evaluate consumption and...
Abstract Thermal resilience refers to a building’s capacity adapt extreme thermal variations, maintaining healthy environment for its occupants. This study aims assess the of naturally ventilated low-income residential building in overheating conditions within region savannah tropical climate. Various indices, including adaptive comfort, Indoor Overheating Degree (IOD) and Exceedance Hours (HE), Heat Index (HI), Standard Effective Temperature (SET) were calculated current climate change...
A resiliência térmica se refere à capacidade de um edifício adaptar às variações térmicas extremas, minimizando o impacto dessas no ambiente interior, e manter saudável seguro para seus ocupantes. Nesse contexto, objetivo deste estudo é aplicar diferentes índices avaliar a uma edificação residencial baixa renda, naturalmente ventilada, em situação sobreaquecimento, localizada região climática tropical savana. Os conforto térmico adaptativo, Heat Index, Humidex SET foram calculados partir...
