Functional Evaluation of Rural Housing Based on a Seismically Optimized Proposal With Respect to the E-080 Standard, Shaullo Chico Baños Del Inca.

Abstract

The purpose of the research carried out is to evaluate the functional state of the houses built with adobe in the Shaullo Chico Village Center, Baños del Inca, Cajamarca, and to quantify the main internal and external deficiencies that may influence their behavior in the event of a seismic event. The methodology used is framed in a non-experimental descriptive approach, applied study design and the sample consisted of 20 houses built with adobe, for which a non-probabilistic sampling was used. Data collection was carried out through detailed observations of each household, and then the Shapiro-Wilk test was applied in the processing of the information. It is important to note that the registered homes were built by the inhabitants of the area themselves, who lacked exhaustive knowledge of building regulations and did not have technical advice during the design and construction process. The processed results reveal the deficiencies identified in the selected homes. Five percent (5%) of the houses showed a deficient condition, characterized by the absence of over foundation in accordance with the E-080 standard, as well as problems of settlement, deformation and cracking in the walls. On the contrary, 95% of the houses presented a regular state, in which some failures and cracks were observed that did not compromise the structural integrity. In particular, the houses in poor condition showed a lack of knowledge in the execution of the construction as established in the E-080 regulation. In conclusion, this study indicates that most of the dwellings in Shaullo Chico, Baños del Inca, Cajamarca, exhibit a functional state classified as regular, with certain deficiencies that do not seriously compromise their structural system.
