Comparacion del diseño estructural de la biblioteca general de la Universidad Técnica de Manabí entre la norma ecuatoriana de construcción (nec–11) y el código colombiano de la construcción (nsr 98)

Abstract

The present Thesis Entitled "Comparison of Structural Design of the General Library of the Technical University of Manabí between Construction Reporting Standard (NEC-11) and the Colombian Code of Construction (NSR 98)", was elaborated in order to compare two different building standards in force applied to the same structure to observe the structural behavior corroborating that resists both solicitations of loading and taking into account the need to ensure safety and quality in the designed structure. The General Library structure was analyzed with the aid of SAP2000 program, based on the design criteria and recommendations made in the earthquake resistant design codes. This document is structured of important parts like introduction where is detailed of general way the project and describes some basic concepts for the development of this work, materials and methods in which you specify the process followed for the structural design of General Library, results which detail the plans for every structural elements, and parameters used for seismic analysis and finally conclusions and recommendations. The application of calculation techniques linked to the field of Civil Engineering facilitated the process, but the decisions made as part of the final design are those of the authors.
