This study focuses on the analysis of seismic vulnerability in confined masonry homes, using the AIS method in the El Triunfo sector, Cajamarca, analyzing the geometric, constructive, structural, foundation, environment and soil aspects. The methodology included a qualitative approach of a descriptive study and a non-experimental design, the techniques used for data collection were direct observation and field work, applying the AIS method sheet as an instrument. The results of the investigation were carried out using the ETABS software where it was verified that they do not fully comply with the E.030 and E.070 standards and the Microsoft Excel program in which it was verified that the number of walls in two directions, The quality of the mortar joints, the confined and reinforced walls and the mezzanine are the most critical aspects of the 36 homes evaluated. Therefore, the conclusion was reached that 80% represents a level of medium vulnerability with a degree that ranges between 47.78% and 66.11% and 20% presents a high vulnerability with a degree that exceeds 73.43%, which represents a considerable risk due to the probability of collapse during an earthquake.

La necesidad de viviendas de calidad en Perú es crítica, ya que aproximadamente el 74 % de la población no cuenta con condiciones de vida adecuadas. Esto se debe, en gran medida, a las prácticas de autoconstrucción y al uso de métodos tradicionales, que a menudo carecen de orientación profesional. Este estudio tiene como objetivo evaluar una vivienda multifamiliar y comparar la metodología BIM con el enfoque tradicional. El diseño en 2D, característico del método tradicional, presenta diversas deficiencias, como la falta de coordinación entre arquitectura, estructuras e instalaciones, lo que genera retrasos, sobrecostos e ineficiencias. Para abordar estas limitaciones, se empleó el software Revit 2025 en la aplicación de la metodología BIM, siguiendo el Reglamento Nacional de Edificaciones en el distrito de Breña, Lima-Perú. Con este enfoque, se logró detectar de manera anticipada inconsistencias entre los distintos planos, especialmente en las discrepancias dimensionales de algunos elementos. Esto permitió optimizar el diseño final del proyecto, garantizando una mayor precisión y eficiencia en su desarrollo.

In the design of spaces for mental health, therapeutic architecture plays a fundamental role in the perception and well-being of users. Understanding this relationship allows generating environments that promote recovery and emotional comfort. The objective of this research is to analyze the relationship between therapeutic architecture and spatial perception in the environments of the mental health center "Psiconstruye" in the district of Chimbote. The methodology adopted is a mixed approach, with a correlational scope and a design based on case studies. Case analysis and observation techniques were used, applied to the different environments of the center, using registration forms as a data collection instrument. The results showed a significantly high correlation between therapeutic architecture and spatial perception in the mental health center "Psiconstruye", which allowed to base the development of a design proposal for the optimization of a specific environment.

Concrete continues to be the most used material in civil constructions; in certain locations there are some conditions that make the use of chemical additives essential, such as accelerating additives; This additive is widely used, but its influence on resistance at ages after 28 days is unknown. Likewise, it is known that flexural resistance is a property directly related to compression resistance; However, it is unknown what correlation exists between these for a type of concrete and at different ages. This research presents the results of the study carried out to determine the correlation between the compressive and flexural strength of concrete f'c 27,46 MPa, applying accelerator additive, in the city of Cajamarca. The evaluation was carried out by calculating the correlation between the results of flexural and compression resistance of standard concrete, concrete with 2,50% accelerating additive and concrete with 4,00% accelerating additive, at 6 ages of concrete in the hardened state (3, 7, 28, 60, 90 and 180 days). To determine the correlation, 30 standard cylindrical specimens and 18 beams were made for each treatment, tested in compression and flexion at ages of 3, 7, 28, 60, 90 and 180 days, with a total of 144 specimens. From the results, the correlation was calculated, concluding that there is a correlation between both resistances, with the resistances being exponentially greater over time.

Neuroarchitecture, as an interdisciplinary approach, studies the relationship between the built environment and the cognitive, emotional and behavioural processes of its users. In the educational context, the architectural quality of spaces directly influences well-being, concentration and learning. This study analyses this relationship at the Cristo Jesús School, Nuevo Chimbote, using a mixed approach. From a qualitative perspective, observation sheets are used to assess spatial conditions and interviews to identify deficiencies in educational design. At a quantitative level, the chi-square statistical test allows significant correlations to be established between Neuroarchitecture and architectural quality. The research, with a correlational scope and based on a case study, uses observation and survey techniques. The results show that the relationship between Neuroarchitecture and architectural quality is significant, highlighting the importance of optimising educational spaces to improve the user experience. This emphasizes the need to incorporate design strategies that favor comfort and academic performance, promoting more stimulating and functional environments for students and teachers.

The purpose of this study is to analyse the influence of biophilic architecture on the comfort of paediatric inpatients in a type III hospital. The research approach is mixed, with a quasi-experimental design. The data collection instrument is based on observation sheets and pre- and post-design questionnaires to get the perspective of the participants as well as a preference survey to include certain features in the design of a prototype paediatric inpatient room.
