Abstract

Social building in Colombia has taken a remarkable importance due to the lack of housing for people who belong to one and two socioeconomic stratification. For this reason, the main objective of this internship was to work as civil engineering assistant to follow up construction activities of a tower with five levels and four apartments per floor of 54 m2 each one. The tower built was part of the stage two of the project called Ciudadela Victoria, with a total building area of 2650 m2. The project was built by the company called Arquitectura Sostenible Conexión Verde SAS, which has the main office in the city of Medellín, Antioquia. The project took place in the town of Sopetran Antioquia. Emptying of concrete walls was the construction system used in this project. The main activities conducted in the internship were: Drawing review, construction activities schedule and budgeting, supervision of activities such as location and staking using a topography commission for the verification and marking of axes and levels on the ground, earthworks that contemplated the excavation in natural terrain, Rebar bending, concrete mix on site, hydraulic, sanitary and electrical installations. The internship had an important social relevance, since a housing solution was provided to 20 families; however, the complete project solved the housing needs of 320 families. The construction of the apartment tower had a duration of three months, in which the intern had an outstanding performance in front of the assigned tasks, which will be introduced in detail in this report.
