Resumen

This monograph shows the conceptual development and practical application of different cases of structural design in an application for use on the website "Unibague", called Isolated1-Foundations. This application contains two modules for the analysis and design of centrally insulated square foundations and pedestals belonging to the foundation system of a building. The purpose of this tool will be to provide users with a better use of the necessary equations for the design, in addition to providing a better understanding of the information provided the possibility of minimizing errors in the calculations and the ease of obtaining a quality and safety design. Complying with the requirements stipulated in the Colombian regulation of earthquake resistant construction “NSR-10”. This application makes use of the results obtained from any numerical simulation carried out through commercial software and reported using an Excel sheet with certain characteristics. This document is composed of a series of modules that explain the algorithmic details for the design of isolated foundations and pedestals, presenting an explanation of the methodologies used for each one, in addition to a user manual that details the use of the application.
