Análisis, diseño y proceso constructivo de un puente de hasta 15m

Abstract

Analysis and design of a bridge construction process up to 15m main objective seeks to take into account the conditions and variables that interfere when developing a structure of this type. Within these variables geological, geotechnical, hydrological, hydraulic and structural are highlighted. This was carried out through the collection and analysis of data, whether taken previously by the team in field or taken by the investigator. From the data the different conditions are obtained to which the construction of a bridge is subjected. It also includes an analysis of how each of these variables interferes with the development of the work, both in design and construction. The previous is subjected to the standards and specifications laid mainly in the “Código de Cimentaciones de Costa Rica”, “Código Sismico de Costa Rica”, specifically the LRFD method for the design of bridges, this in order to present a valid and acceptable procedure for later applications, supported with valid and applicable in many other cases. The results are within acceptable ranges according to the rules, giving the design values that conform to reality and normality when speaking of bridges that are not only up to 15 meters, but to even greater lengths to reach even the 30 meters. The use of this information does provide a general procedure and descriptive steps to design a bridge design also emphasize the regulation of each process through the aforementioned regulations.
