description The covid-19 pandemic has increased the economic, social and environmental crisis that Latin American countries are experiencing. Bioconstruction is proposed as a way to redeem, or rescue the planet from its eminent devastation, through the promotion of low-pollut­ing local natural materials and techniques. In con­trast, the conventional construction of reinforced concrete or fired partition, generates 39% of the greenhouse ef­fect, as a result of the transfer of materials, their firing or the use of machinery, so it is important to reduce it. The objective of this work is to analyze bioconstruc­tion as a proposal to promote decent habitats, as well as to reduce the emission of polluting gases in Latin American countries. The methodology is based on the analysis of bioconstruction considering indicators such as: its impact or scope, projection or scalability, innovation and budget supported by empirical experience in cases developed in countries such as Bolivia, Peru and Argentina. The results show advantages in the works carried out based on bioconstruction, highlighting the benefits in terms of duration, efficiency, humidity and tem­perature. It is concluded that bioconstruction represents an opportunity in Latin American countries to face the crisis that prevailed before the appearance of the pandemic, but that has increased due to the arrival of covid-19

La bioconstrucción se propone como una manera de redimir o rescatar al planeta de su emi­nente devastación a través del impulso de materiales y técnicas naturales locales poco contaminantes. En con­traste, la construcción convencional de concreto arma­do o tabique cocido genera el 39% del efecto invernadero, consecuencia del traslado de los materiales, su cocción o por el uso de maquinaria, por lo que es importante reducirla. El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la bioconstruc­ción como una propuesta para promover hábitats dig­nos, así como para disminuir la emisión de gases contaminantes en países latinoamericanos. La metodología se apoya en el análisis de la bioconstrucción considerando indicadores como su impacto o alcance, la proyección o escalabilidad, la innovación y el presupuesto apoyados en experiencias empíricas en casos desarro­llados en países como Bolivia, Perú y Argentina. Los resultados muestran ventajas en las obras reali­zadas con base en la bioconstrucción, resaltando los be­neficios en cuanto a duración, eficiencia, humedad y temperatura. Se concluye que la bioconstrucción representa una oportunidad en los países latinoamerica­nos para enfrentar la crisis que prevalecía antes de la aparición de la pandemia, pero que se ha acrecentado por la llegada del covid-19. 2022-05-12 2024-10-10T02:31:42Z 2024-10-10T02:31:42Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo revisado por pares http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501 http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85 https://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/nodo/article/view/1345 10.54104/nodo.v16n32.1345 https://repositorio.uan.edu.co/handle/123456789/10700 spa https://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/nodo/article/view/1345/1032 Derechos de autor 2022 Universidad Antonio Nariño https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/4.0/legalcode http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2 application/pdf UNIVERSIDAD ANTONIO NARIÑO REVISTA NODO; Vol. 16 Núm. 32 (2022): Ciudad, planeación urbana y arquitectura en tiempos de crisis; 34-42 2346-092X 1909-3888 10.54104/nodo.v16n32
