- Resumen
The objective of this thesis is to design a multipurpose structure that has the capacity and criteria to be used in emergency situations, and in developing countries, where interventions must be made to help overcome some life problems. This is a main skeleton that will define the final shape of the structure and will be transformed so that it adapts to all climates, and to different terrains, and to different emergency situations. This structure can be used for schools and hospitals in developing countries, for supporting refugees, for temporary fundraising exhibitions... The project will be made with sustainable materials brought from around the area of intervention in order to eliminate transportation costs and let them blend into their environment. The technology chosen is Space Frame, providing great space coverage with a minimum of material. The structure is sustainable so it will rely solely on natural energy sources to meet the needs of users and, if possible, create additional energy.
The research and development of the project was carried out in 3 countries: the sustainable study was carried out in Italy, the development of the project in Spain, Valencia, and the information retrieval, field research and experimentation was carried out in Lebanon, where ongoing conflicts have led to unprecedented numbers of refugees there. The thesis starts from the study of emergency architecture in general and then deals with the history of this topic in Lebanon. Once the context is understood, it is easier to bring the necessary guided lines so that this project does not fall into the same errors as the previous ones. At this level, and to further justify the project and make it as close to the current needs in the country, extensive work and research and interviews have been done in different refugee camps. From this part it has been possible to bring other guided lines to improve the project. With all these lines guided, the drawing, study and sustainable and structural analysis of the thesis project has been advanced.
