Resumen

It has been identified that, according to the dynamics of growth in the number of students at the University of Ibagué, its facilities are showing shortcomings in terms of capacity, possibilities of use and adaptation to new technologies. If one thinks about the construction of new facilities, two fundamental points should be put on the balance: the cost that would be incurred and the possible effects on the architectural heritage and the spaces of the University. For this reason, this project seeks to generate a proposal to study the structural capacity of the classrooms module No. I of the University of Ibagué in a way that adjusts to reality and allows us to obtain relevant and useful results, we will start from the work carried out by (Evaluation of the Resistant Earthquake Vulnerability of the Building Blocks of the University of Ibagué, Andrés Felipe Enciso Rodríguez, Francisco Javier Escobar Cervera and Jorge Andrés Ortiz Peña). In addition, the provisions of the NSR-10 will be taken into account. The properties of the materials of the constituent elements of the structural system will be determined from destructive tests. Subsequently, reinforcing steel requirements will be determined and compared with what is placed according to the loads, both in use and anticipated seismic
