Abstract

The impact of climate change and the importance of sustainability strategies in the design of social housing in urban environments were addressed, with a specific focus on the city of Manta. The use of quantitative and qualitative research was taken into account as a methodology, with the objective of analyzing local climatic conditions and their influence on the thermal comfort of a single-family home. Tools such as Climate Consultant 6.0 software and Andrew Marsh 3D Sun-Path were used to evaluate climate parameters and design passive solutions. The results highlighted the need for natural ventilation, sun protection and the use of vegetation to improve livability and reduce energy consumption. The result was the proposal of various bioclimatic strategies to optimize thermal comfort and promote more sustainable development in the region.
