**1. Introduction**

A technological alternative is sought that responds to the need for the construction of a low-cost single-family basic house and is implemented agilely in the short term.

When analyzing the housing situation in Peru, common problems are found, as in all Latin American countries. There is a very large housing deficit both because of the famine and because of the physical deficiencies of the existing houses. According to different estimates, this deficit is equivalent to just over half of all

existing houses. The severity of the housing problem varies greatly within the region and within each country and even within the same city [1].

Nine out of 10 houses in Latin America and the Caribbean are of low quality. "*Currently, more than 75% of the inhabitants of Latin America and the Caribbean reside in urban areas. The challenge is how to eradicate the poverty cords and the deterioration that this generates and that does not allow good quality of housing in our hemisphere*," Luis Alberto Moreno, president of the BID, explained to EL PAÍS. In the last 20 years Brazil, Colombia, Peru, Chile, Paraguay and Argentina, delivered more than six million housing units to low-income populations. This policy has not prevented the emergence of low-quality housing clusters on the outskirts of cities, far from work centers [2].

Peru is the third country in Latin America with the highest housing deficit, according to the report of the Ministry of Housing, Construction and Sanitation, of the Peruvian government. They state that there is a deficit of 1800,000 houses, among families that do not have a house or live in a precarious house. Peru ranks third in Latin America as the country with the highest housing deficit. After Nicaragua and Bolivia [2].

The housing deficit in the face of a low supply leads to an increase in the price of houses. According to the Peruvian Chamber of Construction (CAPECO), in recent years there has been an increase in the average price of departments in Lima and Callao. The price per square meter (m<sup>2</sup> ) during 2015 was 4,623 soles and increased by 5.5% for 2016; by zone, the largest hike was presented in Lima Modern that went from 4,794 soles per m<sup>2</sup> in 2015 to 5,187 soles per m<sup>2</sup> in 2016. The high prices make it unattainable to obtain a house for everyone. Additionally, the high informality in construction in low-income districts increases the housing deficit [3].

The need for housing is critical in certain geographic spaces where telluric and catastrophic events occurred. Thus, the mayor of the Provincial Municipality of Ica-Peru, in August 2017 pronounced on the insufficient reconstruction of Pisco and states that after 10 years "*little or nothing has been done*" to rebuild the city that was later devastated of the catastrophe. "*There are families that still live on mats and plastics*." The earthquake of 7.9 degrees, left 595 dead, about 2,291 injured, 76 thousand houses destroyed and 431 thousand people affected [4].

Also, after two years of the earthquake that occurred in Colca (Caylloma – Arequipa – Peru) families from Ichupampa continue to live in plastic modules, the reconstruction did not reach 15% of the houses affected by the earthquake of August 14, 2016. Of the 410 houses, only six were left intact, 234 were found collapsed and the rest suffered several cracks and fissures. The only church in the town was destroyed like the initial school. Two years have passed since the tragedy and the streets express that the earthquake had occurred last week. According to the Commerce of August 15, 2018, only 132 were qualified to be rebuilt and each house will be served with the S/43,348 bond and to date, only one house has been rebuilt [5].
