Analysis of the stresses obtained in adobe walls without reinforcement against lateral loads obtained through modeling in SAP 2000

Abstract When talking about the techniques of collection, elaboration and construction adobe in general constructions with earth, there is always a great variety techniques, composition blocks that vary according to region culture [1], which generates uncertainty, causes that, at present, although we have decree 2113 2019, do not clarity as method characteristics universally valid accepted our country. It for this reason work show modelling series type walls by means SAP 2000 program applying static linear analysis finite elements an stresses service limit states given different are determined, showed percentage failure 40% under methodology, threshold it was determined element can be functionality, exceeding value denoted will lose its functionality without entering into risk collapse until reaching 50%. Finally, models obtained appropriate effort analyses design recommendations criteria results obtained, leaving possibility performing experimental phase develop analogy those raised models.
