Implementación de una sala de dibujo por computadoras para la carrera de ingeniería civil, mediante la dotación de un software para el cálculo de canales abiertos

Abstract

The computer-drawing room becomes an effective tool for civil engineering degree that it is equipped with advanced computer technology, audio visual equipment, comfortable furniture and an air-conditioned environment. The computer programs incorporate the calculation, design and drafting of engineering components, one of the programs that come with this computer equipment is a fundamental part of our thesis is HCanales software. Thanks to the mentioned program, the main objective of this work is to implement a computerdrawing room for the Civil Engineering through the provision of the software, which will allow new materials joined to the interactive world of calculation and design such as the hydraulics, so the students can analyze the theoretical content required to operate the software Hcanales, prepare the science-technology for the design of open channels and accelerate the resolution of problems that arise frequently. This knowledge will be reflected in future civil engineers to provide good solutions to the problems of the hydraulic sector. The room provides a pleasant and improving teaching conditions of teaching and learning, benefiting students and faculty of Civil Engineering and indirectly to the “Universidad Técnica de Manabí” on their way to accreditation as a center of excellence for higher studies.
