This paper compares a traditional Colombian structural design to the same structure with viscous-type energy dampers, considering both structural behavior and construction costs. To this effect, a building was designed: first, in accordance with the Colombian Seismic-Resistant Construction Regulations (NSR-10); and then according to the recommendations of American Society of Civil Engineers with regard to damping systems. Finally, the quantities and construction costs were calculated. As a result, an unconventional structure was obtained which was more expensive than a traditionally designed building. Still, said structure had less cross-sections, stresses, and displacements. The above demonstrates that, while the initial cost of this method may be higher, the extra cost can be offset when an earthquake occurs, as the building has better earthquake resistance.
Este trabajo compara un diseño estructural convencional colombiano frente a la misma estructura con disipadores de energía de tipo viscoso, considerando tanto el comportamiento estructural como el costo de construcción. Para ello se diseñó una edificación: en primera instancia, bajo los parámetros del Reglamento Colombiano de Construcción Sismorresistente (NSR-10); y luego cumpliendo con las recomendaciones de la American Society of Civil Engineering con respecto a sistemas de disipación. Por último, se calcularon las cantidades y los costos de construcción. Como resultado, se obtuvo una estructura más costosa que una edificación diseñada convencionalmente. De todas maneras, dicha estructura tenía menos secciones transversales, esfuerzos y desplazamientos. Lo anterior evidenció que, aunque el costo inicial de este método es más alto, el costo adicional puede ser compensado en el momento en que se presenta un sismo, pues la edificación es más sismorresistente.
