Diseño y construcción de la cimentación de un puente metálico colgante para el sitio lodana en la facultad de ingeniería agrícola de la Universidad Técnica de Manabí

Abstract

The present degree work “DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF THE FOUNDATION OF A METAL HANGING BRIDGE FOR THE LODANA SITE AT THE FACULTY OF AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERING OF THE TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY OF MANABÍ” has been carried out with the final purpose of delivering a structural proposal to the beneficiary institution such as the Technical University of Manabí, so that the foundation of the bridge can be built at the Faculty of Agricultural Engineering, taking into account the current construction standards and allowing the completion of the project to be safe and economical. The structural analysis complies with the current regulations of the American Concrete Institute ACI-318S-11 and the Ecuadorian Construction Standard NEC-13, in addition to taking references from engineering text for the development of the project in the most appropriate way. In its development, several computer tools were used, such as software applied to civil engineering such as Auto Cad 2014, Microsoft Excel for the respective calculations, without neglecting the engineering design criteria. At the end, the structural plan is presented so that it generates a good project, including the respective budget and unit price analysis.
