Construction and foundation of anti-seismic houses

Introduction

The use of hard materials which dissipate the energy of the earthquake, obviously a solid structure that offers absolute rigidity, fixing to the ground, avoiding accidents such as detachment of facades, windows and partitions, a weight that is not higher together with good foundations that will provide stability.

Background

Earthquakes cause catastrophes that, to a large extent, could be avoided by applying anti-earthquake or earthquake-resistant building criteria.1. Height Obviously the height of the building is one of the essential factors in resistance to earthquakes. 2. Simetría Un edificio es simétrico respecto a dos ejes en planta si su geometría es idéntica en cualquiera de los lados de los ejes.

Situated problem

An earthquake can cause injury or even loss of life, damage to roads and bridges, general property damage, and collapse or destabilization of buildings. It can also be the source of illness, lack of basic needs, and higher insurance premiums.

Solution Product

Foundation The foundation is key in the flexibility and endurance of an anti-seismic house. Each floor has a specific foundation both in depth, shape and size, so a study of the land prior to the construction of the property is essential.

Distribution of doors and windows The symmetrical distribution of the opening elements of the houses are essential to increase the resistance of the building to collapse, as well as a size commensurate with the rest of the structure, not exceeding more than half of the wall.

Mass distribution The specialists recommend the uniform distribution of the masses that make up an anti-seismic house both in plan and in height, changing depending on the different areas and heights based on rigidity.
