    Estudio de peligro sísmico determinista para las estructuras de Ambato sector la Universal ubicado entre las calles Bolivariana, Hipócrates, Jenofonte, Horacio, Real Audiencia y Pitágoras
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica. Carrera de Ingeniería Civil, 2019) Guamani Aguayo, Holger Fabricio; Ureña Aguirre, Maritza Elizabeth
    The present experimental work has been made with the purpose to evaluate the seismic danger existing at the area “La Universal” from Ambato city, through the method deterministic seismic danger. For the develop of the investigation the tectonic regime was define based on the area in analysis, was selected faults nearest and active to the study area, also was made the Standard Penetration Test (SPT), this test was done on five points of the area with the purpose to get kind of existing soil and through this information it was calculated the cutting wave speed (Vs30) to determinate the soil profile with the table provides by NEC-2015. Similarly, through the method of Wells- Coppersmith was calculate the Magnitude of the Moment Weight (Mw) for all failure selected, and through prediction equations of soil movement, we proceeded to calculate acceleration spectra for each fault, using an envelope, from that was determined a specific spectrum for the area, the same that is compared with NEC-2015. The determine spectrum generates greater accelerations with regard stablished spectrum in the NEC-2015 in a period 0.15 to 0.4 seconds, that established that structures will be affected, It determines that the spectrum influences to the structures that are in the area, through the investigation, was determined that structures under five floors, have more seismic threat.
