Blog 8: A subject you have enjoyed studying this semester

Hi everyone

Today I’m going to talk about a subject that I enjoy a lot studying this semester, “Principios de Habitabilidad y sustentabilidad”.

In it subject at beginning we learnt about the weather zones of Chile and the principal materials that are used in each zone. Exist a norm that divide the country and give you information of the zone, it give you the material recommended for building. We study a traditional house from one zone and identified the aspect from the norm in our case of study.

After that, come the more funny part of the subject. We learnt about thermal efficiency and we have to design a solution that help to save energy and take advantage of energy of environment, like solar energy.

We learnt too about natural illumination. We have to design a space and light up naturally. After that we have to calculate whit an instrument the quantity of light in the space and accord to it determinate the use that the space could have according to the Chilean norm.

I like it subject because we learnt to design using the energy and conditions of the environment. This way we help to decontaminate the planet through the architecture.
