Diagnostico Patologico y Popuesta de Rehabilitacion de una Vivienda Unifamiliar en Sogamoso, Boyaca

Abstract

This study focuses on the pathological evaluation and rehabilitation of a single-family house located in Sogamoso, Boyacá, which presents several structural damages that compromise its safety and functionality. The building, composed of a mixed system of load-bearing walls and reinforced concrete frames, shows deterioration derived from its exposure to environmental conditions and the lack of preventive maintenance. The investigation was developed through a systematic approach that included detailed inspections and technical analysis to identify pathologies and their underlying causes. Based on the results, specific intervention strategies were designed, focused on mitigating the damage and restoring the functionality of the house. Among the proposed solutions were the repair of cracks in the walls by means of specialized mortar injection techniques, the stabilization of foundations through structural reinforcements and the implementation of confinement elements in critical areas to improve the building's resistance to dynamic loads and seismic events. This work not only solves a particular case, but also offers a practical approach for the diagnosis and intervention of similar buildings, integrating technical data and solutions adapted to the local context.
