Estudio patológico pediátrico Paris Campestre, Bello-Antioquia

Abstract

This study presents the pathological assessment of Stage 1 of the París Campestre residential project, located in Bello, Antioquia, Colombia, with the aim of identifying the technical causes associated with the distress observed in a retaining wall after approximately four years of service. The methodology involved a detailed visual inspection, as well as the review and systematization of the available technical information, in order to conduct an analysis in accordance with the provisions of the Colombian Seismic-Resistant Building Code (NSR-10) (Congreso de la República de Colombia, 2010). The findings indicate that internal erosion processes are associated with deficiencies in water management and drainage control, as well as with potential differential settlements, resulting in functional impairments in structural and retaining elements. Finally, this study establishes a technical diagnosis and proposes intervention guidelines aimed at slope stabilization, optimization of the drainage system, mitigation of internal erosion, and control of deformations, with the objective of restoring the structural safety and durability conditions of the project in accordance with current Colombian regulations.
