Technical and economic study of striking and clearing operations in buildings under construction. Case study in Bogotá, Colombia

Abstract

[EN] This paper evaluates the economic benefits of shorter construction times that can be attained by applying the New Simplified Procedure (NSP) in multi-storey buildings. The reference building was a multi-storey residential reinforced concrete framework structure with one-way slabs located in Bogotá, Colombia. The study was divided into different phases including the characterization of the components, a study of the different methods to determine load transmissions between slabs and shores, and a review of the cost of renting shoring and formwork materials and labor costs for the building under study. After applying the procedure, an economic assessment was carried out on the execution times obtained in each of the operations studied. The analysis of the construction process of the building structure using the NSP showed that considerable savings can be achieved in construction times without any risk for the integrity of the structure.

4.2. S udy o imes
The execu ion imes o he di e en al e na i es s udied
we e ob ained om he analysis o he load ansmissions
(Table 7) and hey ag ee wi h he s iking imes p oposed in
Cala e a [17].
4.3. S udy o cos s
The esul s o he s iking ime calcula ions we e used o
de e mine he execu ion cos s, which we e hen compa ed
wi h he ac ual cos s in ol ed in he cons uc ion o he
p ojec used o he case s udy. The di e en esul s o each
cons uc ion p ocess and he economic a iables analyzed
can be seen in Table 8. Nega i e alues signi y sa ings and
posi i e alues signi y excess cos s.
5. Analysis o he esul s
The beha io o loads on one-way slabs and sho es in a
conc e e ame s uc u e was analyzed o a se ies o
cons uc ion p ocesses. Also analyzed we e he imes
equi ed o each o he cons uc ion p ocesses s udied and
an assessmen was made o hei economic cos s using he
ac ual cos s o building an eigh -s o ey block as a e e ence.
The slab design load was no exceeded in any o he
p ocesses showing ha all o hem a e iable. Acco ding o
he subsequen analysis, he bes beha io was ob ained by
he SCS p ocess. In his echnique, a e clea ing, only 50%
o he sho ing was equi ed o suppo he loads be ween he
slabs.
Cons uc ion cycles play an impo an ole, as building
imes can be educed when he sho ing assembly p ocess is
op imized. F om he esul s ob ained in he building imes, i
can be concluded ha as e execu ion imes a e no always
achie ed by using mo e sho es. In ac , he bes esul s a e
ob ained by an SCS p ocess wi h wo consecu i ely sho ed
loo s.
The esul s om using only one se o sho es indica e ha
his sys em is no ad isable due o he long execu ion imes
equi ed, which we e he same in all he cons uc ion
p ocesses.
As ega ds cos s, he bigges sa ings (app oxima ely
30%) a e ob ained by implemen ing SCS wi h wo se s o
sho es, since as e imes a e ob ained wi h sa ings in bo h
equipmen and labo cos s.
6. Conclusions
Using he New Simpli ied P ocedu e [10] o calcula e
sho e/slab loads p o ides de elope s wi h a ool ha
gua an ees co ec building p ac ice wi hou exceeding he
pe mi ed loads on slabs du ing his cons uc ion s age.
Secondly, calcula ing s iking imes by Cala e a’s me hod,
as alida ed by Fe nandez [17], aids in planning conc e e
ame p ojec s wi hou any isks o sa e y. This sys em allows
loads o be analyzed in o de o es ablish he minimum ime
equi emen s o gua an ee he s abili y o he slabs.
The cos analysis o hese wo me hods showed ha
conside able sa ings can be made o e he adi ional
me hods used o his ype o p ojec , achie ing sa ings
be ween 6 and 33% in equipmen and labo cos s.
