STRUCTURES AND PROBLEMS WHICH AFFECT THEIR STABILITY

PROBLEMAS EN ESTRUCTURAS QUE AFECTAN SU ESTABILIDAD

This experience has been obtained on more than one hundred cases studied, where the structures show different problems that are dangerous for their stability. A classification of the causes has been done. It has been proved that the difficulties mentioned have no relationship with the design or with the calculations, the problems were caused by the wrong use of the materials and the carelessness in the construction. The techniques that were employed in the determination of the structural failures have been detailed in this work. /TRRL/
