ESTUDO COMPARATIVO ENTRE UM BRISE-SOLEIL E O MUXARABI ARTICULÁVEL MUART – ESTUDO DE CASO

LUZ E SOMBRA EM UMA SALA DE AULA COM FACHADA LESTE NO HEMISFÉRIO SUL

Abstract

Architectural elements for the protection of openings in facades of buildings are particularly present with the brises-soleil and their precursors, the mashrabyia. These elements have been developed gradually throughout history and nowadays rely on technologies and equipment that allow to align, in one and the same architectural elemento, the best qualities of both. In the case of the brises-soleil, they refer in particular to the scope of good industrial production capacity, as well as the possibilities for coordination. In the case of the classic muxarabis, one observes as main quality, the potentiality to absorb a range of surface design patterns that can be developed by adding identity in the facades of the buildings. This article describes part of a master's research, where, through an experimente, we compare a type of articulated brise-soleil with a developed architectural elemento called MuArt - Articulated and Artistic Mashrabyia, which incorporates a well-known geometric pattern in Islamic art, called bone. The object of study for experiment was a brise-soleil installed in a real classroom. From digital modeling, a virtual version of this classroom was generated and light and shadow effects produced by this brise-soleil and MuArt were compared in digital simulations. The results showed that MuArt has the potential to be offered to the construction Market as an element of solar protection for facades, especially for its quality to insert modular patterns and composition between filled and empty.
