Análisis de precios unitarios de construcciones tradicionales en tapia pisada en Boyacá y Santander

Abstract

The implementation of traditional construction systems has been gradually fading due to the industrialization of construction materials, as well as due to the earthquake-resistant requirements to which buildings must adapt today. It is true that the constructions in Bahareque and Rammed Earth can become earthquake-resistant, but in our country the interest persists in building in other predominant construction systems in rural areas such as structural masonry, brick or fired block, columns and beams in concrete, prefabricated systems, woods, among others. Due to this, in rural areas or municipal populated centers of our territory it is possible to perceive an architectural mixture of building typologies. That is why, in relation to the valuation of buildings in these geographical frameworks, we appraisers find ourselves with a major challenge when objectively evaluating buildings of various types. Therefore, and based on the fact that currently there is no detailed or updated information regarding unit price analysis for the valuation of Rammed Earth buildings in rural areas of our country. This research is generated to determine the commercial value per square meter of a traditional land-based construction system, having as a study area some municipalities in the departments of Boyacá and Santander.
