More DescriptionThis is the Spanish version of Modeling of Prototype Buildings, which summarizes the methodology and presents the conclusions of the modeling phase carried out by TecMinho, University of Minho, Portugal, as part of the Seismic Retrofitting Project (SRP).Between 2015 and 2017, TechMinho studied four prototypes of historic earthen architecture in Peru in their current conditions and in retrofitted configurations. Modeling of Prototype Buildings presents the results of this effort, offering advanced numerical modeling approaches for historic adobe structures.The report includes 3D numerical models of the structures, the characterization of the material properties, and the damage comparison, which are based on the visual inspection of the four SRP buildings and the testing program performed by the SRP partner Escuela de Ciencias de Ingeniería of the Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú (PUCP).This publication is the one in a series from the Seismic Retrofitting Project intended to provide professionals and researchers in the field of structural engineering with a methodology for the assessment of historic earthen structures using advanced numerical modeling techniques. Additional reports in the modeling phase are Recommendations for Advanced Modeling of Historic Earthen Sites and the forthcoming Simplified Calculations for the Structural Analysis of Earthen Historic Sites.
