DISEÑO, MODELADO Y PROTOTIPADO DE UN SISTEMA MODULAR DE CAPTACIÓN DE AGUA LLUVIA PARA VIVIENDAS DE BAJO COSTO

Abstract

The purpose of this project is to design, model, and build a full-scale modular rainwater harvesting system intended to serve as a sustainable alternative for water resource management in low-cost housing. The goal is to integrate parametric design tools, 3D modeling, and additive manufacturing to develop components such as the roof, gutters, downspouts, primary water system, storage tank, structural base, and water outlet. The study incorporates principles of applied research, environmental sustainability, and technological innovation to strengthen skills in technical design, component assembly, structural optimization, and real-world problem-solving. It will be carried out using a phased methodology that includes research and planning, design and 3D modeling, prototyping, functional validation, and dissemination of results.
