ABSTRACT

Las metodologías para estimar la pérdida máxima probable (PML) se componen de dos partes, el modelo de daño y el costo de reparación o reemplazo. Este trabajo se enfoca en la segunda parte y tiene como objetivo determinar estos costos para Puerto Rico. Se hizo una encuesta entre contratistas, diseñadores y propietarios y se obtuvieron costos por pie cuadrado, costos por unidades de servicio, costos por parámetros, costo por componentes, salarios de mano de obra y la distribución de la misma en un proyecto. La información se clasificó de acuerdo al tipo de edificio, al uso, al tipo de estructura y al nivel de calidad, entre otros. Se obtuvieron medidas de tendencia central, percentilas y el coeficiente de variación de la información clasificada y se comparó con las publicaciones Building Construction Cost Data, National Building Cost Manual y Bids Cost Index. Se desarrolló un índice de costo para actualizar los resultados obtenidos de forma rápida y así poder usar éstos en el futuro. Se usaron los componentes: mano de obra y materiales. El primero se decidió representar mediante: obrero no diestro, carpintero, varillero y albañil, mientras que para materiales se usó: hormigón, varilla de acero, cerámica de piso y cemento para empañete. Se estableció que el costo de reconstrucción resulta del costo de construcción multiplicado por un factor. Se tuvo en cuenta que en un proceso de reconstrucción se pueden tener dos alternativas: reparar la estructura dañada o reemplazarla con una nueva. Por consiguiente, se usaron dos factores, uno de reparación y uno de reemplazo. (AU)

ABSTRACT

El objetivo de este trabajo es compartir las experiencias y reflexiones derivadas del proceso, sin duda apasionante y largo, de rehabilitación de un edificio de cien años de antigüedad, que está y ha estado en uso prácticamente al 100 por ciento de sus posibilidades a lo largo de su vida. Una primera constatación es que la rehabilitación del edificio es un proceso que se extiende a lo largo de la vida útil del mismo, con etapas de agitación y transformaciones profundas, acompañadas de otras en las que la actividad es más tranquila, así pues cada una de las etapas de rehabilitación no tiene sentido aislada en sí misma si no se considera encuadrada en el proceso de vida útil del edificio. Es con esta perspectiva desde la que se abordan las consideraciones que a continuación se exponen acerca de los roles de "ingeniería" y "mantenimiento" (AU)

ABSTRACT

The experience gained in after - earthquake reconstruction in Maharashtra State of India is described herein. The items mainly presented are: the total rehabilitation program involving relocation of villages and reconstruction in-situ, damage assessment methodology and retrofitting and construction technology options. Some issues are also discussed: relocation versus ins-situ construction, appropiateness of technology to be adopted, and role of NGO's and voluntary agencies and coordination with the governmental efforts. Lessons aredrawn towards suitable time frame and reconstruction approach for developing countries such as India especially for the disastrous damage in rural areas. (AU)

ABSTRACT

The generally poor perfomance of earthen buildings in earthquakes is addressed but the position is taken that much of this damage could be prevented white still using, to a large exten, local materials and construction practices They do have to bring to bear reasonable compliance with certain laws of nature and of earthquake engineering. The major contributors to damage and collapse are listed as well as the major contributors to damage and collapse are listed as well as the major ways to prevent collapse (AU)

ABSTRACT

Classification of different low-cost construction systems used in Greece is attempted. Problems and possibilities of design, construction seismic behavior and repair of rural structures in Greece, with either traditional or recent low-cost construction systems are presented, with emphasis on observations and conclusions from recent destructive earthquakes (Volvi 1978, Magnissia 1980, Alkyonides 1981) need for practical design, construction and repair recommendations, easily available to rural population is stressed (AU)

ABSTRACT

In order to evaluate the efficiency of three strengthening methods for adobe houses, five 1:2.5 scale models were tested in a shaking table under the effect of the accelerograms of three major actual earthquakes. Mechanical properties of adobe masonry and structural behavior of adobe walls were also studied. The main objective of the reinforcement was to avoid separation of the walls in the corners and their subsequent overturning. Test results indicated that the seismic intensity that can be withstood without major damage is increased at least twice by any of the strengthening methods studies, the most efficient being the welded mesh reinforcement (AU)

ABSTRACT

En el Perú la geografía y el clima condicionaron la preferencia por la utilización de la tierra para las edificaciones. La presencia de una corriente marina de agua fría cambia el clima de la costa y la hace arida y sin lluvias. La presencia contínua de terremotos por la influencia del cintirón sísmico del Pacífico, obligo a interesantes soluciones estructurales en las construcciones. En 1975 se inició en la zona de Cuso y Puno un importante proyecto para restaurar monumentos arqueológicos y coloniales, dentro de un plan basado en el turismo cultural. Se desarrollarón técnicas adecuadas para restaurar científicamete las edificaciones de adobe las que se describen en el trabajo del cual se ha hecho el presente resumen (AU)

ABSTRACT

Scientifically stabilizing soil with cementitious materials establishes its permanence for building. Reinforcing it with bamboo or small steel strands and mortar provides it with structural resistance to cataclismic hurricane or earthquake conditions. Training people to manufacture parts and build complete walls, floors, footingd, sub-floors, columns and lintels, using reinforced and stabilized soil-cement block and rammed materials, through simple systems planning results in a mini-mobile industry for minimum cost structures development (AU)
