Tipología estructural de las viviendas de los barrios Paraiso, El Cortijo y los Andes de la ciudad de Tunja

Abstract

The seismic events are the cause of loss of life, injured, affected staff and state heritage, for this reason is necessary the implementation of study in order to minimize these effects and to evaluate and quantify the damage in case of occurrence thereof. Through the implementation of this project seeks to describe and analyze qualitatively the buildings present in the Paraíso, Cortijo and Andes neighborhoods of Tunja, considering this city is located in an area of intermediate seismic hazard. The characterization of the houses was made by visual inspection and a format whose variables are defined and analyzed taking into account the characteristics of the buildings. Some features that will be studied are: location of the site, population study, building age, geotechnical parameters, decking, plate configuration, use of the building and its respective structural system; this governed by the parameters of the NSR -10.
