    Diagnóstico y estudio de alternativas para el manejo de las aguas residuales domésticas en la Vereda Kasiano Chak, en el Resguardo Indígena de Guambia - Departamento del Cauca
    (Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Morales Muelas, Carlos Andrés; García Ubaque , César Augusto; García Ubaque, César Augusto [0000-0002-6959-6610]
    The Indigenous peoples of Colombia face major environmental challenges due to the inadequate management of domestic wastewater, which affects both their natural environment and their systems of knowledge. In the case of the Guambía Reserve, located in Silvia, Cauca, the lack of land-use planning, housing built without technical assistance, and the absence of environmental education exacerbate sanitation and public health problems. This situation reflects a debt on the part of the State, which lacks updated data on sanitation coverage in Indigenous territories, thereby failing to comply with the recommendations of international organizations. Therefore, it is necessary to implement public policies with a differential approach that integrate ancestral knowledge with modern techniques, strengthening the capacities of the cabildo and the community to manage their resources sustainably and in harmony with nature.

    Manual para la interpretación de pruebas de esfuerzo en cimentaciones profundas.
    (Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Guerrero Niño, María Paula; Clavijo Rincón, Andrés Horacio
    Quality control in deep foundations is a fundamental aspect for ensuring the safety and durability of structures. In this context, Pile Integrity Testing (PIT) and Dynamic Load Testing (DLT) are consolidated as essential tools for verifying and validating pile performance. The non-destructive PIT test, based on wave propagation, allows for the identification of anomalies in the cross and longitudinal sections of piles, ensuring their structural continuity. The DLT test, for its part, evaluates pile bearing capacity by analyzing force and velocity signals, complemented by numerical modeling that breaks down the contribution of the shaft and tip. This paper presents the theoretical foundations, the field execution methodology, and the criteria for interpreting the results of both tests, in accordance with ASTM standards and national regulations (NSR-10). In addition, the main actions to consider when rejecting piles and alternative reinforcement or redesign options are presented. This study seeks to contribute to the professional practice of civil engineering by providing a technical approach that strengthens the understanding and correct application of these tests in deep foundation projects.

    Análisis de patologías estructurales en columnas y los ensayos aplicables en los laboratorios de Cemex
    (Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Camacho Maldonado, Jhonatan David; Clavijo Rincón, Andrés Horacio
    The inspection of concrete columns is essential to ensure the structural safety and durability of buildings. Early detection of structural issues allows for the identification of deficiencies before they develop into critical failures, thereby ensuring the integrity of the structure. Preventing accidents and material damage is another key aspect, as the failure of a column can lead to collapses that endanger occupants' lives and cause significant economic losses. The durability and functionality of concrete structures largely depend on the integrity of their load-bearing elements, with columns being particularly important. However, various factors can compromise their performance, giving rise to what is known as concrete pathologies. Our own technical preparation as engineers and technologists is the best path to minimizing defects and failures in construction. Since concrete pathologies are wide-ranging, this study will focus specifically on all structural pathologies affecting columns, the treatments applied to them, and the research conducted.

    Ladrillos de concreto con agregado grueso reciclado y limadura de hierro
    (Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Castañeda Padilla, Daniel Felipe; Abril Montoya, Michael Steven; Lopez Palomino , Paulo Marcelo
    This monograph analyzes the production and evaluation of concrete bricks made from coarse recycled aggregate (RCA) sourced from construction and demolition waste, combined with iron filings, in order to assess their structural viability and environmental sustainability. Several mixtures with varying percentages of iron filings were designed and tested, following an experimental methodology aligned with national (NTC) and international (ASTM) standards, supported by previous research on alternative concrete materials. The samples were tested for physical and mechanical properties, including compressive strength, water absorption, and apparent density. Results showed that using RCA alone significantly reduced the material's strength, whereas the progressive addition of iron filings considerably improved its performance. A maximum compressive strength of 32.03 MPa was achieved with 7.5% iron filings, surpassing conventional concrete brick standards. This study demonstrates the technical and environmental feasibility of producing masonry units by reusing solid waste, reducing the ecological footprint of construction practices, and supporting the Sustainable Development Goals.

    Evaluación de las afectaciones en el hábitat por fenómenos naturales en zonas de conflicto armado y su incidencia en la sustentabilidad del territorio
    (Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Páez Gamboa, Mary Estrella; Pineda Jaimes, Jorge Arturo; Pineda Jaimes Jorge Arturo [0000-0002-0953-9745]
    This work arises from the research project "Narratives of truth, memory, and restorative justice for peacebuilding with an intersectional gender perspective," endorsed by the Office of Research (ODI) under SICIUD code 4-160-670-23 in Call 01 of 2023. This document describes the use of a multicriteria analysis methodology as a tool for evaluating natural factors that translate into flood and landslide threats in regions of the country impacted by the armed conflict. This evaluation focuses on the following municipalities: Florencia and La Montañita (Caquetá), Vistahermosa (Meta), and Valencia (Córdoba). To evaluate threats within the framework of DRR, a multicriteria analysis tool was implemented, establishing evaluation criteria and defining ratings for the variables that constitute the threat posed by the phenomena studied. The implementation of this methodology made it possible to establish the hazard levels associated with flooding and landslides in the aforementioned municipalities. This result was achieved through several stages of work, which included data collection and characterization of the physical environment. This methodology allowed for the identification, classification, and ranking of the areas with the highest hazard levels within the selected municipalities, establishing differentiated hazard maps for flooding and landslides. These results not only contribute to the spatial understanding of risk in vulnerable rural areas, but also constitute a basis for technical support in territorial planning processes, the development of land use planning instruments, and the design of adaptation strategies to the effects of climate change.

    Estado del arte. Propiedades mecánicas y sostenibilidad de la Guadua Angustifolia Kunth como material de construcción
    (Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Cañate Rivero, Juliana; López Palomino, Paulo Marcelo
    This monograph provides a state-of-the-art review on the mechanical properties and sustainability of Guadua Angustifolia Kunth as an alternative construction material. Its mechanical characteristics were compared with traditional materials like concrete and steel, and its positive environmental impact in construction processes was analyzed. The descriptive methodology involved a comprehensive literature review (studies, books, articles, and theses) at both national and international levels. Findings indicate that guadua exhibits remarkable mechanical behavior, with high flexural and tensile strength, and excellent energy dissipation capacity, making it a safe option for earthquake-resistant structures. Furthermore, its rapid growth, contribution to erosion control, and significant CO2 absorption position it as a sustainable alternative. Although its implementation faces challenges such as low industrialization, the need for skilled labor, and lack of regulation, the study concludes that guadua is a strategic resource for sustainable construction, ecosystem restoration, and local socioeconomic development, particularly in tropical regions. Its capacity to complement conventional materials is highlighted, as well as the importance of training programs to overcome adoption barriers.

    Estado del arte de los nanobots (mems) para la salud estructural del concreto en Colombia
    (Universidad Francisco José de Caldas) González López, Nicolas Alejandro; Mena Serna, Milton
    Construction plays a crucial role in Colombia's economy, serving as a key driver for infrastructure development and social well-being. However, the industry faces significant challenges related to the quality and durability of concrete structures, essential elements for ensuring the long-term safety and functionality of buildings. In this context, accurate methods for monitoring the internal conditions of concrete during setting and throughout its service life are essential. Traditionally, assessment approaches have relied on external measurements, which do not provide reliable information on critical internal parameters such as temperature and humidity. This limitation can cause defects in the setting process and lead to premature pathologies, such as corrosion, that compromise structural integrity. The humid tropical climate of various regions of Colombia, characterized by high temperatures and constant rainfall, intensifies the risks derived from extreme variations in temperature and humidity within the concrete. These adverse weather conditions can negatively affect concrete performance, making the implementation of more accurate and effective internal monitoring systems even more urgent. In recent years, major infrastructure projects have been undertaken in Colombia, such as hydroelectric plants, dams, and bridges, requiring continuous monitoring to ensure their long-term structural performance. Given this scenario, this research proposal explores the use of nanobots, specifically microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), as an innovative solution for nondestructive monitoring of internal concrete conditions. MEMS are state-of-the-art nanobot (MEMS) devices for the structural health of concrete in Colombia. Miniaturized devices integrate micrometer-scale mechanical and electronic components, allowing their insertion into the concrete mix without affecting its properties. These nanodevices enable real-time data collection on critical variables such as temperature and humidity, providing continuous assessment of concrete condition and facilitating informed decision-making during the construction process. Nanotechnology, and more specifically the development of nanosensors, has represented a significant advance in the monitoring capacity of concrete structures. Previous research has demonstrated the feasibility of using MEMS sensors to measure essential variables within cementitious matrices, enabling precise and continuous measurements. This approach not only improves building quality but also optimizes construction processes, ensuring safer and more durable buildings.

    Estado del arte sobre el método del túnel de viento en Colombia para medir su fiabilidad
    (Universidad Francisco Jose de Caldas) Orjuela Gaitan, Michael Esteban; Mena Serna, Milton
    The measurement of wind loads on structures is a fundamental part for the design resistant to adverse effects, the NSR-10 in title B (Loads) presents 3 models for this analysis through the simplified procedure, analytical procedure and wind tunnel; The wind tunnel procedure is used when the results of the previous methods are not sufficient to determine the stability of the structure, to supply this problem the structure is modeled to scale to subject it to stability tests and estimation of forces simulating wind conditions as close to reality as possible. Many of the investigations for load problems have been done through the wind tunnel procedure, at the time and one of the most famous is the fall of the Tacoma Narros Bridge (USA, 1940) part by which research of this type of forces were encouraged, in that investigation through a conventional wind tunnel and over the years in different projects its fall is adjusted by the Resonance effect (determined by the Natural frequency of the structure), in recent research from the University of the Basque Country. In Spain, it was concluded that its fall was actually due to an effect called fluttering due to combined suction and pressure forces. This leads us to question the veracity of the results of other investigations and leads us to our main problem.

    In this document we will have the development of DECRIPD (version 1.0) in an Android programming language to detect triggering factors, geological, geomorphological, hydrological aspects, vegetation cover, anthropic activities, among others, that can generate mass movements. The above is developed from the systematic collection of information in the field, with the use of photographs and other direct measurements, contrasting with secondary information collected in the official cartography of state institutions such as the Colombian Geological Service, the IDEAM, the Regional Autonomous Corporations, among others. For this application prototype it is important to acquire examples through photographs and locations, generating patterns of distinction, the cases presented in different places in Colombia in which the environment presents abnormalities were used as a guide. The prototype can make a preliminary diagnosis and provide information about the phenomenon that is presented. For this, the application must be provided with the entire conceptual framework that covers the various mass movements, thus guiding it to have an automatic response to an image provided along with its location. Thus, an application prototype was obtained that can systematically evaluate susceptibility factors to mass movements so that interested communities can use it to help and serve as education of basic concepts associated with risk management for mass movements.
