A argamassa armada passou a ser utilizada na construção de reservatórios de água e piscinas no início da década de 60. Apesar do sucesso de várias aplicações, até hoje a tecnologia tem se fundamentado em bases empíricas, sem o estabelecimento de metodologias que permitam a elaboração de projetos, melhorias no método de construção e uma melhor avaliação dos riscos e da confiabilidade do sistema construtivo. O presente trabalho pretende contribuir para aumentar o conhecimento acerca do comportamento estrutural da membrana de argamassa armada em piscinas e reservatórios. Foram realizadas simulações numéricas por computador com o intuito de se investigar o comportamento da membrana quando submetidas à ação da água, de recalques e de variações de temperatura. A influência das dimensões da estrutura e da resistência da argamassa também foram analisadas. São discutidos estes e outros aspectos relacionados à fase de projeto. O trabalho apresenta ainda comentários sobre cada etapa de construção, bem como alguns cuidados necessários para a garantia de um material de boa qualidade. Tendo em vista a obtenção de uma estrutura durável e com bom desempenho, é preciso que cada equipe de trabalho tenha um palavra de ordem: aos projetistas, detalhamento; aos construtores, controle; à mão-de-obra, conscientização. / Ferrocement application in water tanks and swimming pools have started at the early 60\'s. Even though various applications had been succeed, until nowadays the techonology is essentially based on practical experience. There are no established methodologies which permit rational design, construction method improvement and a better assessment of the risks and reliability of the construction system. This work intend to contribute to the knowledge about the structural behavior of the ferrocement folded plate swimming pools and water tanks. Computer numerical simulations were made to investigate the membrane behavior under water loading, settlement and temperature variations. The influence of structure dimensions and mortar strength were also studied. These and others aspects related with the design method are discussed. The thesis also presents some comments about each construction stage as well as some cares needed to guarantee a good quality material. Looking for a durable and good performance structure, the order word to the designer is detailing, to the constructor is control and to the staff is awareness.

Esta investigación busca evaluar la Interacción entre el Suelo y la Estructura (ISE) en reservorios elevados tipo INTZE de tres diferentes capacidades, cimentados en diferentes tipos de suelos, ubicados en la zona con más peligro sísmico en el Perú. Para esto se planteó realizar una muestra de 27 configuraciones estructurales, con variaciones de altura y diámetro del fuste, y diámetro de losa de cimentación, las cuales están cimentadas en cuatro tipos de suelos de acuerdo con la norma Sismorresistente E.030-16. Se evaluará la influencia de la carga sísmica, mediante un análisis dinámico espectral definido por los lineamientos de las normas nacionales E.030-16 y complementariamente por códigos y estándares internacionales como el ACI 350.3-06. Para el dimensionamiento de los reservorios se aplicó el criterio de Otto Intze, análisis estático de esfuerzos y criterios del código ACI 350.3-06 y ACI 307-48. Estos reservorios fueron modelados en el software SAP2000, contando con 216 simulaciones en total. Se aplicó el modelo de Housner (1963) para la Interacción Fluido-Estructura y para la ISE se aplicó el modelo recomendado por el código FEMA P-750. Para analizar los resultados de interés, como las fuerzas internas en el fuste, la cortante basal, momento de volteo, desplazamientos y periodos, se aplicó la prueba de normalidad de Shapiro Wilk para la variación porcentual que se genera al evaluar la ISE, con el fin de determinar intervalos de variación con una probabilidad del 95%. Además, se aplicó la prueba de independencia Chi-Cuadrado para determinar cuantitativamente si la ISE influye en la reducción de las respuestas de interés. Se concluye de la prueba de independencia que, para un nivel de significancia de 15% la ISE influye en la reducción de la fuerza cortante basal y momento de volteo. Así mismo, para un nivel de significancia de 5% la ISE influye en la reducción de las fuerzas internas locales de fuste. / This research seeks to evaluate the soil structure interaction (SSI) in elevated water tanks of three different capacities, founded on different types of soil, all located in the most seismic hazard zone in Peru. Twenty-seven models were evaluated, all with different structural adjustments, including variations in the capacity, height, and diameter of the foundation slab, which are founded on four types of soil, according to the Peruvian Code for Earthquake Resistant Design E.030-16. We are going to analyze the seismic load influence through a spectral dynamic analysis, according to the Peruvian Code E.030-16, and the ACI 350.3-06 code for elevated tanks. For the sizing of the elevated tanks, the Otto Intze criterion, the static stress analysis, the ACI 350.3-06 and the ACI 307-48 code were applied. These elevated water tanks were modeled in the SAP2000 software, with 216 simulations. The Housner model (1963) was applied for the Fluid Structure Interaction, and for the Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI), we applied the model recommended by the FEMA P-750 code. To analyze the results of interest, such as internal forces in the shaft, base shear, rocking moment, displacements and periods, we applied the Shapiro Wilk normality test for the percentage variation that is generated when we evaluate the SSI, in order to determinate variations intervals with a probability of 95%. Also, we applied the Chi-Square test of independence to determinate, quantitatively, if the results are influenced by the SSI. We concluded, from the independence test that, for a significance level of 15%, the SSI influences the reduction of the basal shear force and the rocking moment. Likewise, for a significance of 5%, the SSI influences the reduction of the internal shaft forces. / Tesis

En la presente tesis se ha desarrollado la evaluación estructural de cinco reservorios circulares del tipo apoyado, construidos entre los años 1977 y 1997, ubicados en zonas de alto riesgo sísmico en Lima Metropolitana y ubicados en suelos medianamente rígidos, con el objetivo de evidenciar si estas estructuras continúan conservando un diseño sísmico adecuado en base a los requerimientos sísmicos actuales, y por ende si serán capaces de resistir un evento sísmico severo y continuar con el servicio. Para poder modelar y determinar la respuesta de los se reservorios se empleó el modelo equivalente de Housner, obteniendo así la masa impulsiva y convectiva, modelado en el programa SAP2000 con ayuda de las normas ACI 350.3-06 y E.030. En cuanto a la determinación de las fuerzas resistentes, para poder realizar la evaluación estructural correspondiente, se utilizó la norma peruana E.060-2009 Concreto Armado, con la cual se obtuvo dichas fuerzas y se realizaron las verificaciones estructurales. Con respecto a los resultados de las verificaciones realizadas, se observó que los reservorios en estudio no mantienen un diseño estructural adecuado en cuanto a las solicitaciones sísmicas actuales. Estas deficiencias se plasman en déficit de refuerzo horizontal por corte en muros, cuantía mínima vertical por corte en muros, refuerzo en la base del muro por momento tangencial, armadura requerida en la viga collarín, y refuerzo en el extremo de la cúpula por tracción radial; por lo que estas estructuras, ante la presencia de un evento sísmico severo, se encuentran expuestas a presentar fallas estructurales. / In the present thesis has been carried out the structural assessment of five round ground concrete tanks, built between 1977 and 1997, and located in high seismic risk areas in Lima Metropolitana in moderately rigid soils, with the objective of demonstrating if these structures still preserve an adequate structural design base on the current standards and consequently, if they will be able to withstand a severe seismic event and, hence, continue with their service. In order to model and determine the response of the tanks, the Housner’s rigid equivalent model was used, obtaining this way the impulsive and convective masses, which were modeled in the software SAP2000 with the ACI 350.3-06 standard and the E.030 Peruvian standard. Regarding on the determination of the resistant forces, in order to carry out the corresponding structural evaluation, the Peruvian standard “Concreto Armado E.060” was utilized. With regard to the results of the verifications carried out, it was observed that the reservoirs under study do not maintain an adequate structural design in terms of the current seismic solicitations. These deficiencies are reflected in horizontal reinforcement deficit by shear force on the walls, minimum amount of vertical rebar by shear on the walls, reinforcement in the base of the wall by tangential bending moment, rebar required in the beam by radial tensile force, and rebar in the end of the dome by radial traction; so these structures, in the presence of a severe seismic event, are exposed to structural failures. / Tesis
