Vegetation is widely used for bioclimatic purposes because it provides shade to the architectural envelope and helpsin glare reduction and interior heat gain. It also plays a role in the building-environment energy exchange. Thus, the objective of this work is to devise a Bioclimatic Vegetation Tool in order to know the degree of efficiency of each species. For its scope, we defined the influential variables of vegetation in bioclimatism, based on a theoretical and bibliographical study. Then, we designed the template using the Excel software and we applied it to three typical species of the San Juan province, Argentina. The results show these species obtained an "acceptable" rating, the poplar reaching the highest score, followed by the eucalyptus and blackberry. We conclude that the application of the tool highlights the benefits generated by vegetation from the bioclimatic aspect.Key Words
