This presentation uses a large number of pictures and

Most photographs where taken personally or by members
of his company however, others have been obtained from

After the 2010 Chilean Earthquake
some things have to be revised:
• After the 1985 Chilean Earthquake it was
thought:
Concrete Design Code
• Limit slenderness of the shear walls
• Limit the compression in shear walls
• Confinement of boundary elements
• Confinement at longitudinal splices
The typical structural wall in a Chilean building
need not have boundary elements or special
transverse reinforcement.
The good performance of the majority of these
buildings during the March 3, 1985 earthquake
suggests that bearing walls with limited
detailing may be an effective construction form
for earthquake resistance
Earthquake Loading
• Revise the design spectrum
• Revise the soil amplification effects
• Define displacements and rotational demands
Construction Failures
Reinforcement detailing
De most frequent encountered problems
were:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
• Reinforcement detailing (Missing
confinement reinforcement)
Bad construction joints
Lack of concrete continuity
•
•
• Excess reinforcement cover, reducing
the lever arm
• Movement joints
• Low strength concrete

Some phrases about Constructors
• Drawings must be very detailed to avoid
constructors to think o interpret
(design office).
• Information for in situ engineers must be very
concise and simple and a maximum of 2 pages
extension because they don’t read.
(visiting engineer of a construction company).
• Constructors don´t have the capacity nor the
knowledge allowing them to place in doubt
structural design drawings
(owner of a construction company).
Drawings are a window
through which the knowledge
is seen (or measured)
Carlos Videla © 2010
• In situ professionals don´t like to write to register
anything (all the previous).

Construction Engineering =
Rule of Thumb?
More phrases
• Constructors are only worried about administrative
duties like acquisitions, quotations, budgets,
programming; they don´t care about the execution
of the work in-situ and rely on the work of the
technical labor
(me).
Casting mas
concrete
• The main work of the ITO is adminsitration of
the contract: approve payment, check
productivity, evaluate time, etc.; they don´t
verify the quality of the construction
(structural engineers).

Concrete- testing company says NYC results

were not faked
August 5, 2011
American Standard Testing and Consulting Laboratories denies allegations
that it falsified thousands of test results on several New York City projects,
including a La Guardia Airport control tower and the new Yankee Stadium.
Company President Alan Fortich and five staff members Thursday pleaded
not guilty to racketeering and other charges. The company's defense
attorney, Richard Leff, said the concrete strength tests were done correctly.
