Diseño de vivienda bifamiliar de 3 plantas en hormigón armado para personal militar en la Base Naval de Jambelí

Abstract

CONDITION FOR PUBLICATION OF PROJECT. The project consists of the comprehensive design of a three-story reinforced concrete duplex intended to meet the housing needs of married military personnel at the Jambelí Naval Base in Machala, addressing the lack of residential infrastructure and proposing a solution that can be replicated in other naval bases along the Ecuadorian coast. For its development, site conditions were analyzed, construction alternatives were evaluated, and national and international standards such as the Ecuadorian Construction Standard (NEC) and ACI 318 were applied, integrating the structural, plumbing, and electrical systems. The structural design includes 30×30 cm columns with 1.5 % reinforcement, main beams of 25×30 cm, secondary beams of 25×25 cm, 20 cm one-way hollow-core slabs for floors, and a two-way solid slab covering the stairwell. In the plumbing system, pipes ranging from ½” to 4” were sized to ensure potable water supply and sewage disposal. The results demonstrate that the proposal is technically and functionally feasible, resistant to saline exposure, and represents a replicable alternative to improve the quality of life of military personnel and their families.
