A IMATERIALIDADE PALAFÍTICA E AS ESTRATÉGIAS BIOCLIMÁTICAS PARA VILA DE PARICATUBA-AM

Abstract

The palafite, erected around the rivers, lakes and streams, are traditional dwellings of the riverside culture whose architecture presupposes a dialogue with the water cycle. is common among the dwellings of the Amazon, being generally built on the banks of rivers, where seasonal floods cause damage to the population and the state. The study proposes to analyze vernacular architecture of the palafite type, to define bioclimatic strategies, to investigate technologies and sustainable materials for architectural projects of buildings, in the town of Paricatuba, Iranduba / AM. The work was carried out through bibliographic research with a theoretical basis of qualitative and quantitative approach, as well as field research. From this, we defined strategies and materials that can be inserted in the buildings: natural lighting, photovoltaic solar energy, evaporative cooling, reuse of rainwater, separation / disposal of solid waste, elevated biodigestor pit, regional woods and cementitious tile reinforced with fiber fabric. The prospect of the rescue of palafite vernacular architecture is great as a preservation of the way of living of the riverside population, considering that a large part of the local population still holds cultural and historical values.
