Estudio Patológico de las Fisuras Casa de la Cultura del Municipio de Junin Cundinamarca

Abstract

In this technical report, the analysis of the injuries found in the HOUSE OF CULTURE OF JUNÍN CUNDINAMARCA is carried out, through preliminary visual observation seeking to identify and further understand the flaws present in said construction. These damages have caused a notable deterioration in architectural finishes and have significantly affected the patient, which is important to understand to appropriately mitigate. In this technical report, the analysis of the injuries found in the HOUSE OF CULTURE OF JUNÍN CUNDINAMARCA is carried out, through preliminary visual observation seeking to identify and further understand the flaws present in said construction. These damages have caused a notable deterioration in architectural finishes and have significantly affected the patient, which is important to understand to appropriately mitigate. This degree work focuses on an exhaustive pathological analysis of the House of Culture in the municipality of Junín, Cundinamarca, with the objective of identifying, diagnosing and proposing solutions for the structural lesions that the building presents. This study was motivated by the significant deterioration observed in the building, including cracks, fissures and moisture in floors, walls and roofs, which compromise its stability and functionality. The methodology used consisted of a detailed visual inspection complemented by a photographic record, documentary analysis of the structural plans and previous studies. In addition, diagnostic sheets were created that made it possible to evaluate the severity of the pathologies observed. It was identified that the main causes of the damage include geological faults typical of the region, the absence of adequate geotechnical studies, as well as adverse environmental factors such as intense rains that average between 1000 and 2000 mm annually, and strong winds that affect the integrity of the deck. The installation of controls was carried out in existing cracks in the walls of the internal and external part of the building, which cost eight samples. On the outside, level strips were installed to control the settlements of the buildings; these were tied from a control point at their station, so that they could be constantly verified by the owners or control entities. A series of technical recommendations are made where it is necessary to execute different laboratory tests that provide and complement the diagnoses evidenced in the visual inspection carried out in the House of Culture of the Municipality of Junín - Cundinamarca, in this way the concept will be strengthened. of the identified pathology and a possible intervention of the building will be generated. Currently, the building has a medium-low risk, where the integrity of the citizens is not at risk, the spaces are in use by the residents, such as the play center, meeting rooms, library, symphony, area of paint, etc.
