ABSTRACT
This article reports the discussion about the multiple relations between
architectural design and “place” using two different
approaches in order to characterize the interfaces of design challenges. The
first is qualitative, highlighting the lack of dialogue between the
standard-project architecture, the guidelines recommended by the COEDI (Coordenação Geral de Educação
Infantil (General Coordination
of Early Childhood Education)) of the Ministry of
Education, socio-technical and
cultural-environmental context and pedagogy. The second, more quantitative,
addresses the problems generated by dissociation between the constructive
solutions and the bioclimatic demands of different insertion contexts of
architectural design in the Brazilian Bioclimatic Zone 2. Initially planned to
use a conventional building system, it was transposed to the Wall System, developed by MVC Componentes Plásticos Ltda. The
simulation evaluates and compares the level of thermal comfort of the building
with two envelope systems. The study reports the analysis of the thermal
comfort of a Type C unit, based on thermodynamic simulation, through the
software Design Builder (version 4.2.0.054). The analysis of the building
simulation results was based on the adaptive comfort model ASHRAE 55/2010.
Later, three optimization measures of the thermal comfort level of the building
were tested, based on thermal insulation and absorptance coverage, in addition
to sun protection system design for the window frames. Preliminary results for
the level of comfort of long permanence environments indicate a low level of
thermal comfort, the 50% in MVC system and around 60% in the conventional
system, and also that the greater discomfort comes from the heat. Based on performance
optimization measures of building, the MVC system reached 66.4% of thermal
comfort compared to 62% in the conventional system. The results show the
importance of adapting the standard project to the local climatic context.
