This research, within the design perspective, has the goal to create a prototype of housing that can be used as a temporal shelter for people affected by natural disasters. The elements that were taken into account for the design of the prototype were the national climate, adequate ventilation, facility to transport materials, use of recyclable materials, versatility and duration. Therefore, an initial prototype was created to attend aspects of recycling using an industrial container. However, the high temperatures due to wall materials were regarded as negative aspects. To improve the prototype, we decided to cut the walls of the container (reducing its weight as well) and replacing them with pre-fabricated wooden blinds panels. This change improved ventilation. For the foundations, we propose using old tires filled with sand or clay, and supporting them upon wooden pallets, which is one of the best techniques found due to the easiness to manipulate materials during its construction, to the use of recycled materials, and to the availability of materials. To offer protection from rain and sun, we propose using an external canvas cover with metallic structure. La vivienda de emergencia tiene como propósito dar solución en el corto plazo y de forma temporal al problema de habitabilidad de una o más personas a raíz de un evento catastrófico que inhabilita su hogar. La investigación se proyecta en la disciplina del diseño, su objetivo principal es crear una vivienda que pueda ser utilizada como albergue, de carácter temporal enfocada a las personas damnificadas a causa de desastres naturales. Los aspectos tomados para el diseño del prototipo fueron el clima del país, una buena ventilación, el transporte de materiales, la reutilización, el uso de materiales reciclables, versatilidad y duración. Atendiendo estos temas, y casos ya estudiados, se crea un prototipo inicial partiendo de un contenedor industrial estándar; pero su aspecto negativo fueron las altas temperaturas que se producen en su interior debido a los materiales de sus paredes. Para mejorar el prototipo se decide cortar las paredes del contenedor (reduciendo su peso) y reemplazarlas con paneles prefabricados de persianas de madera lo que mejora también la ventilación. Para las fundaciones se propone usar neumáticos viejos llenos de arena o barro y apoyar sobre los mismos pallets de madera. El resultado es una de las mejores alternativas investigadas por ser un prototipo de fácil manejo de los materiales durante la construcción, por el carácter de reciclado de los mismos, y la facilidad de obtenerlos en el territorio. Para proteger al recinto de las lluvias y el sol se propone una cubierta externa de lona con estructura metálica. 07/13/2017 2017-07-27T14:22:25Z 2017-07-27T14:22:25Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion http://revistas.utp.ac.pa/index.php/ric/article/view/1461 http://ridda2.utp.ac.pa/handle/123456789/130 spa http://revistas.utp.ac.pa/index.php/ric/article/view/1461/2072 http://revistas.utp.ac.pa/index.php/ric/article/view/1461/html info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/ application/pdf text/html Universidad Tecnológica de Panamá 2413-6786 2412-0464 Revista de Iniciación Científica; Vol. 3 (2017): Revista de Iniciación Científica Edición Especial; 88-92
