Revisión estructural de un bloque de la Unidad Educativa Santa Mariana de Jesús parte 1.

Abstract

This is the first part of an investigation that contains like object, generate a process for structural review of one typical ancient edification in Guayaquil city. In this part we propose to use specialize equipment to realize structural and not structural surveys, with the purpose to obtain enough information for proper analysis, without affect structural during the process; this like a first step of a rehabilitation structural studio. It’s also include an simplified process for structural review that’s going to compared with more complex methodologies in the next investigation part following the ASCE/SEI 41-13 and NEC-15 codes. It propose two elastic-lineal types with masonry and without it, then we realize a spectrum modal and deformations conditions are verified with another’s rules. Of the structural model results with masonry and based on the research of other authors, it is concluded that in the first floor it’s going to lost the masonry stiffness. Therefore for a rare earthquake it’s similar to the model with masonry on upper floors and not on the first floor, so a third model was made to review this condition. It is concluded that the soft floor condition is very probably to occur.
