Abstract

Currently it is very common to find concrete structures that do not have a design and construction process based on Ecuadorian construction regulations, so it is necessary to carry out an analysis of structural behavior to determine stresses and deformations that are generated in the structure. when subjected to states of charge. In Ecuador, reinforced concrete constructions present difficulties when they are under high load actions, for which it is of great importance to carry out a non-linear analysis. This is because several structures are located in one of the highly seismic zones; In addition, it is necessary to apply the seismic design method that will describe both the behavior and the interaction of buildings subjected to seismic loads. The non-linear analysis requires previous knowledge of the structure since its geometry and the balanced amount must be known to generate checks after dimensioning. Therefore, for concrete constructions, the Ecuadorian Construction Regulations must be used. For reinforced concrete constructions, various analysis methods are used, which will help to have knowledge of the behavior of the structure under loads; such as through static and dynamic analysis, within an elastic and inelastic range, which will allow the evaluation of structures that are capable of withstanding earthquakes without presenting damage, thus avoiding the collapse of the designed structure. Therefore, adequate designs must be carried out based on the Ecuadorian Construction Regulations that will avoid future accidents in reinforced concrete structures since they are the most common in Ecuador. The objective of this project is to carry out an analysis of the non-linear behavior of a 4-story reinforced concrete structure using the NEC 2000 and NEC 2015 standards to determine the real behavior of the building, starting with a pre-design of each of the structural elements that make up the structure, as well as modeling in a computational package to verify the results obtained.
