Solución de anclajes de elementos no estructurales en la Clínica Oncológica San Diego

Abstract

In Colombia, compliance with regulations regarding the design of nonstructural elements is becoming increasingly strict. In addition to this, we must follow the requirements of the Colombian regulations of construction resistant earthquake NSR-10. In this standard we can find the necessary conditions to meet the anchorages of the non-structural elements in the correct way, we also find the normative requirements to build facades in masonry, dividing walls and breastworks, and also the correct way of anchoring these same elements, all this in order to protect people’s lives. This work is aimed at verifying the current state of the anchorages of the nonstructural elements in order to recommend the most suitable solution, following the necessary regulatory parameters to prevent such elements as masonry facades, dividing walls, glass facades, medical equipment elements and ceiling , may present a risk to the users of the building, which in this case is the San Diego oncology clinic, classified as a priority care construction that must be maintained in service in the event of disasters, earthquakes and emergency situations. In view of the above, we proceed to the development of the topics aimed at improving the current state of the non-structural elements contained in the scope of this work.
