Ítem Acceso Abierto Caracterización de unidades de mampostería más comunes en la ciudad de Azogues(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2021) Cantos Torres, Carla Alexandra; Crespo Crespo, Jorge Efraín; 0301670014; ., .The structural behavior of masonry has been the subject of analytical and experimental, giving rise to techniques developed for their use, and establishment of standards of quality that determine the design and construction processes. In Ecuador the trend cultural is the construction of houses with masonry that are part of elements structural and non-structural, whose execution is mainly due to processes of self-construction, without quality control. Of the seismic events that occurred, it has been evidenced weaknesses in these elements, without guaranteeing structural stability. Despite having developed new manufacturing techniques for partitions and walls, the masonry is the main material for the construction of houses, being necessary know their properties, determining the degree of vulnerability they present before the action of the loads they support. The objective of the present work is to investigate the physical-mechanical characteristics of the masonry units commonly used in Azogues, determining the degree of compliance with the specifications established in the INEN Ecuadorian Technical Standard, and the Ecuadorian Construction Standard NEC15. The compressive strength of the masonry units was evaluated, since it is the main characteristic that influences the structural behavior of the system, physical tests to determine absorption, density and volume of solids, necessary for evaluate the quality of the product and its vulnerability to the action of agents that cause its premature deterioration. The behavior of these units of masonry, and its respective analysis.
