    Estudio de vulnerabilidad sísmica, rehabilitación y evaluación del índice de daño de una edificación perteneciente al patrimonio central edificado en la ciudad de Cuenca-Ecuador.
    (2017) Arteaga Mora, Pio Antonio; Vázquez López, Benigno Alfredo
    The evaluation of the seismic vulnerability of the buildings belonging to the city of Cuenca - Ecuador has been approached in a global way, and their analyzes have been placed in integrated maps of structural damage, with the intention of taking actions capable of mitigating the seismic danger to the which are exposed. In an already consolidated urban area with a high seismic hazard, the only way to mitigate the seismic hazard is to construct buildings with earthquake resistant structural elements and in the buildings built before the promulgation of the first building code that established already resistant earthquake design, year of 1977, need a structural reinforcement due to their unacceptable seismic resistance. In this sense, a large part of the patrimonial buildings of the historical center of the city have to be reinforced, but their character of heritage buildings limits this action, for example for an architectural rehabilitation one has to respect the architectural typology, the fundamental morphological characteristics, materiality and Integration with their environment. (GADMCC., 2010) Thus, the present work analyzes in particular the seismic vulnerability of a patrimonial building located in the historical center of the City of Cuenca - Ecuador, values the damage index in the presence of a quake of design as established by the “Norma Ecuatoriana de la Construcción” NEC (2015) and proposes an alternative structural reinforcement for its adobe walls and walls, without this method or its materials being counterposed with its equity value or its value of origin.
