Diseño basado en desempeño (pushover) de edificio destinado a parqueadero vertical ubicado en la ciudad de Machala.

Abstract

This project is focused on the design of a building intended for vertical parking located in the city of Machala, through the application of the “PUSHOVER” performance design philosophy, where it is expected to achieve a state of “Immediate Occupancy” in order to protect the life of the building occupants, as well as the material goods inside the building. For the development of the research, advanced structural analysis software was used along with the normative codes NEC 2015, FEMA 356, ASCE 41-13, ASCE 7-16 and VISION 2000, in addition to the normative construction criteria proposed by ACI 318, in order to guarantee the correct operation of all the structural elements that are part of the project. As a final result, the capacity curve of the structure was obtained where the performance objective of “Immediate Occupancy” is guaranteed. In addition, the results obtained in a general way were compared with the moment-curvature diagrams of 3 beams located in different loading zones of the project in order to know at a local level what happens in the structural elements at the moment of applying lateral forces. Finally, a structural project capable of reaching an “Immediate Occupancy” performance objective is presented, complying with all the requested requirements of admissible deformations, adequate rotations, drift levels within the safety limits and a ductile system capable of resisting the design earthquake without material damage to the project.
