Diseño estructural de una cubierta metálica para una cancha de uso múltiple ubicada en el barrio San Martin de Porres

Abstract

This project proposes development of a metal roof model, located in a strategic zone of the “San Martin de Porres” neighborhood for the benefit of the community. To develop the project was used the Ecuadorian Construction Standards (NEC-15) standards necessaries for the design of a steel structure using a specialized program (SAP2000) additionally we use American standards (ASCE/SEI 7-16) used to verify the service limit states and drifts, during the development of the project calculation examples are detailed for the selection of an appropriate profile for the structure. A waterfall-type methodology was used to obtain information applied to the development of metallic structures, thereby obtaining the ideal geometric elements for the type of loads to which the structure is subjected, fulfilling the specifications described in the Ecuadorian Standard. The comparison was made between different types ofstandards, mostly American and the Ecuadorian Standard, which allows us to identify what types of guidelines present in any of the standards can be useful for the design of metal structures other than buildings. Finally, a schedule of activities is prepared based on the budget, as well as the material and human resources, considering that alteration in any of the requirements will have an impact to prepare a schedule of activities and may delay the work.
