1. CONFINED MASONRY
1.1 WHAT IS CONFINED MASONRY?
Confined masonry is the construction technique normally used for building
a home. This type of construction uses baked clay bricks, tie
columns, beams, etc.
In this type of housing, the brick wall is built first, then the concrete is
poured for the supporting columns and, finally, the roof is built together
with the beams.

1.2 WHY IS CONFINED MASONRY IMPORTANT?
Homes of this type are the most popular constructions in urban areas of our country and this trend continues today.
On the other hand, if you are in charge of a work of this type, you must take into account three factors:
a. Structural design.
b. Control of construction processes.
c. Quality control of materials.
Is It is important to consider these three factors, so that
For a home to successfully withstand the effects of an earthquake, it must have a solid, strong and resistant structure.
An earthquake will cause damage to a home if it lacks structural design or was poorly built. The house may even collapse, causing
significant material losses, serious injuries to its occupants and even the death of some of them.

2. REINFORCED MASONRY
1.1 WHAT IS REINFORCED MASONRY?
It is made up of ceramic bricks joined by mortar and includes reinforcing steel bars,
in a horizontal direction every 5 and 7 rows of bricks, and in a vertical direction
taking advantage of the vertical gaps in the bricks.
This type of structural masonry is designed to resist various tensile stresses and/or
transmit loads through it.

2. REINFORCED MASONRY
In this case, the bricks used are machined, since they have a
structural design that facilitates the insertion of the tensioners and thus
guarantees great flexibility to the different structures that are made using
this type of masonry.

REINFORCED MASONRY is reinforced with a steel frame that is incorporated so that both materials can withstand the
stresses together. On the other hand, MASONRY
CONFINED has as reinforcements a set of vertical elements (columns) and horizontal elements
(beams), called confinements, whose function is to provide ductility to the wall.

LIGHTENED SLAB
Roofs are a very important element in the construction of
a house. It is the structural element of the house that is
responsible for giving a resistant cover to our project by
joining beams, walls and castles which together transmit
the loads to its foundations.
Lightweight slabs basically fulfill three functions:
> Transmit the weight of the finishes,
your own weight, the weight of the furniture, the weight of the people, etc. to the
walls or beams.
> Transmit the forces produced by earthquakes to the walls.
> Join the other structural elements (columns, beams and walls) so that the
entire structure works together, as if it were a single unit.

REINFORCED SLAB
Flat surface, whether horizontal or inclined, that, in addition to having concrete in its composition, requires reinforcing steel to give
elasticity to its structure. Reinforcement is usually done with steel rods whose diameter, distribution and measurements respond to the
structural calculation.

3. PORTAL SYSTEM
It is based on the use of columns, slabs and dividing walls made of
brick. Pouring: the walls are the ones that support the entire
weight of the building, therefore the length of the wall is all
concrete.
In this system, the structure is raised and then the spaces are
closed with bricks.

3. PORTAL SYSTEM
ADVANTAGES.
> The portal frame system has the advantage of allowing any
modifications that may be made to the interior of the house, since
the walls, not supporting weight, have the possibility of changing.
> Relatively simple construction process and one with a lot of
experience.
> The portico system has the versatility that is achieved in spaces
and that implies the use of brick.

CONCLUSIONS
• A structural system is a configuration of elements within the structure that, individually, can support a
certain type of load, and together guarantee the strength and behavior desired in the structure.
• The essence of the confined system is to first build a wall of bricks or blocks.
• In the portico system, the structure is first raised and then the spaces are closed with bricks.
