Item Análisis de las propiedades mecánicas de la madera de pino (Pinus Patula Schltdl. & Cham), provenientes de la provincia de Cotopaxi y su factibilidad como material estructural de acuerdo con la norma ecuatoriana de la construcción 2015 (NEC 2015)(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica, Carrera de Ingeniería Civil, 2025-02) Toaquiza Chiguano, Patricio Orlando; Ureña Aguirre, Maritza ElizabethThis study analyzes the mechanical properties of pine wood (Pinus patula Schltdl. & Cham) from the province of Cotopaxi, Ecuador, evaluating its viability as a structural material according to the Ecuadorian Construction Standard (NEC 2015). In addition to providing technical data, the aim is to promote the use of sustainable local materials in construction, so that pine wood from this region can be used as a structural material in light and sustainable constructions, standing out as an economical and ecological alternative to traditional materials. The methodology was structured in four clearly defined phases. Initially, the extraction of samples from the mentioned area was carried out. Subsequently, specimens were prepared strictly following the guidelines of ASTM D 143-94, which guaranteed the standardization of the tests. Finally, mechanical tests (tensile, compression and flexural) were carried out in specialized laboratories in order to obtain accurate and reproducible data. Additionally, the results were compared with the minimum requirements demanded by the NEC 2015, ensuring a comprehensive and rigorous approach in the evaluation. Thus, the results classify pine wood as low-strength structural. The basic and dry densities of air were 0.44 g/cm3 and 0.57 g/cm3, respectively. Thus, in tension, the modulus of elasticity (MOE) reached 12845.72 MPa, and the allowable stress 11.9 MPa. In compression, the MOE was 1834.8 MPa and the allowable stress was 13.7 MPa. In flexure, the MOE was 5519.60 MPa and the allowable stress was 11.81 MPa. For this reason, these values place it in groups “B” and “C” according to the NEC 2015, highlighting its potential for specific applications within the construction field.Item Estudio comparativo de costos, sostenibilidad y eficiencia del sistema de construcción tradicional vs el Steel Frame(Universidad Técnica de Ambato.

Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica, Carrera de Ingeniería Mecánica, 2023-09) Valencia Castillo, Rafael Alejandro; Arroba Arroba, César HernánThe issue addressed in this research stemmed from the lack of a proper design for the paramedic's seat, which hinders compliance with regulatory requirements and the assurance of service quality. The objective is to design and construct a seat that complies with the NTE INEN 2 512:2009 standard. The gathered information revealed deficiencies in the seat concerning the NTE INEN 2 512:2009 standard. For this reason, efforts were made to design a seat that meets the NTE INEN 2 512:2009 standard, and a dynamic test based on CEPE R80 was implemented to assess the seat's strength under the conditions specified by the standard. The seat was simulated using specialized software, which provided data close to reality, and these results were compared with the aforementioned standards. Regarding the manufacturing process, CNC cutting and CN folding technologies were employed, along with hydraulic bending, to enhance the seat assembly precision. As a result, a seat design was obtained that met multiple aspects of these standards. Its construction is feasible using readily available materials in the market, which would facilitate large-scale production and distribution. This advancement in the design of sturdy seats that comply with regulations represents a significant step forward in the industry, ensuring comfort and, most importantly, the safety of paramedics.Item Programación y procesamiento de datos en lenguaje de Python para la determinación de análisis de precios unitarios y presupuesto, para construcción de obras civiles(Universidad Técnica de Ambato.

Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica. Carrera de Ingeniería Civil, 2018) Granja Parra, Gustavo Patricio; Mora Mora, Miguel ÁngelIn the next research project the planning and constructive control of the Classroom Block of a Standard Millennium Educational Unit was carried out, using the BIM (Building Information Modeling) methodology, through the construction of a virtual information model and its creation process until arriving to a simulation that allows to check graphically the progress of the project according to the established schedule so that in this way a control of the progress is being carried out working at the same time with the reality, that begins in its structural phase and culminates in the finishing details phase Autodesk Revit was used to model structure, formwork, architecture, hydro-sanitary installations and electrical installations, which allowed to extract constructive drawings and obtain quantities of work both general and by sectors. The BIM model does not only generates an updated visualization of the changes in the design of the building, it also allows to carry out a virtual pre-construction, through an adequate planning to simulate its construction, associating its elements to the item that makes up the budget with its corresponding cost, reaching a level BIM 5D. To carry out the coordination between specialties and 4D / 5D simulation, the 3D model was exported to Autodesk Navisworks, selection sets were created and associated with an elaborated schedule in the MS Project. During the verification of volumes of work from structural drawings previously prepared in 2D CAD with those obtained from the BIM model, a low margin of error was found in concrete elements and metal structure, so obtaining quantities of work from the model saves time, modeling all specialties minimizes deficiencies and increases productivity in a collaborative environment.Item Diseño del alcantarillado sanitario para los sectores altos de la parroquia Quinchicoto del cantón Tisaleo, con la implementación de una metodología de construcción anexada a microsoft project(Universidad Técnica de Ambato.
