Abstract

This research was carried out with the purpose of making known the structural characteristics of the most common construction systems in Peru: MDL, Aporticados, Masonry and Dual to determine which is the system that presents better seismic behavior and its impact on the cost; from the documentary review performed in our thesis "Characterization of the Structural Response of the Systems Walls Of Limited Ductility, Aporticado, Masonry and Dual and its Incidence on the Cost in Multifamily Buildings, Cajamarca 2021", where, the structural variables were analyzed: maximum interstory displacement, basal shear, maximum drift, dynamic shear, shear at the base, fundamental period of the structure, spectral acceleration, and cost by means of data compilation formats, which were subsequently compared by means of percentage of variation of the aforementioned parameters. The results yielded structural and economic comparisons by parameter for each system and heights considered, where low buildings were taken as 1, 2 and 3 stories, medium buildings as 5 stories, and tall buildings as 7, 8, 9 and 10 stories.
