Análisis y diseño de una Nave Industrial y sus respectivas Fosas dentro del taller “Chiriyacu” para Ferrocarriles del Ecuador Empresa Pública F.E.E.P

Abstract

Within Chiriyacu’s workshop belonging to Ecuador’s Railway, it is necessary to extend the existing industrial building where maintenance activities are performed in a confined space and locomotives are exposed to climate change. The configuration of the new industrial building will support a 30-ton bridge crane being the principal aspect in the design. The structural design was based on several regulations like; LRFD method, AISI / SEI7-10, NEC2014, which were considered in the pre-design of main elements and the final design using Sap2000 and RamConnection program. It was not possible to design and simulate the structure as a whole because the length is greater than span, the solution was to divide it into modules taking a third as a part of study and the pseudostatic seismic analysis was possible, obtaining structural analogues profiles to existing structures in the region. The structural drawings were generated in AutoCAD Structural Detailing. Furthermore the profiles suitable for pits shall withstand the heaviest machine following the same procedure of the structure designed. Geotechnical and foundation engineering study would not be performed because are outside the field of study.
