ANÁLISE DE UM FLUXO DE TRABALHO PARAMÉTRICO COM ELEMENTOS DE OBSTRUÇÃO SOLAR EM FACHADAS PARA EDIFICAÇÕES COM DIFERENTES CONTEXTOS CLIMÁTICOS

Abstract

The design process can rely on support tools that are increasingly relevant for the designer to analyze their decisions. Parametric software has become important when it comes to exploring different geometric configurations in architectural projects. This research project has the general objective of applying, in architectural design, a workflow for dimensioning elements of solar obstruction using parametric software. As Methodology an exploratory research was carried out, developed with the method of bibliographic research and qualitative approach. A base model was defined, where a workflow was applied for the development of a solar obstruction element, considering the cities of Porto Alegre and Recife in Brazil, through the Ladybug plug-in and the Grasshopper plug-in, inserted in the Rhinoceros software. In both cities, the shading element created had a positive impact on the aesthetics of the building, and it is also possible to change the design of the element without affecting the pre-established configurations for the brise fins. The results proved to be satisfactory when there was agility in the design process, greater ease in bioclimatic analysis and in the creation of highly complex forms, as well as the emergence of new solutions and possibilities.
