Elaboración de una base de datos mediante la caracterización estructural de edificaciones con enfoque del riesgo sísmico en la zona 1 del Proyecto Regenerar en la ciudad de Loja

Abstract

Abstract: A population of 137 houses was analyzed, 95 are of reinforced concrete and 42 of adobe, analysis that allowed to know the constructive characteristics of the houses according to their typologies. The main objective of the research is "To obtain a micro-zoned database of the characterization of the structural failures of the buildings in zone 1 of the Regenerar Project of the city of Loja, in the seismic risk approach, useful for the study of seismic risk and hazard", the Vulnerability Index methodology proposed by Benedetti and Petrini was applied, considering also the main structural characteristics according to the taxonomy of the Global Earthquake Model (GEM). The method is based on the evaluation of eleven parameters of the most relevant structural characteristics of the building, to which a degree of vulnerability and a value of importance were assigned according to the proposed methodology. The level of seismic vulnerability of the housing typologies analyzed presented a risk probability of 51.82% low, 44.53% medium and 3.65% high.
