Abstract

En las últimas décadas las estructuras recíprocas han encontrado una nueva utilidad vinculada a la ejecución de obras temporales y reciclables en línea con las tendencias actuales en arquitectura sostenible. El objetivo de este trabajo consiste en analizar el comportamiento de puentes de madera con estructura recíproca. Se realizó un modelo numérico y se compararon las respuestas estructurales del puente tradicional chino y el puente desmontable de Leonardo. El modelo se verificó midiendo la deformación de un puente real construido en taller. Además del comportamiento mecánico se estudió el mecanismo de transmisión de cargas, la influencia del rozamiento, la estabilidad lateral y la robustez. El puente chino trabaja fundamentalmente a compresión, acercándose más al comportamiento de un arco funicular, y transmitiendo una carga horizontal en los apoyos del orden de tres veces mayor que el puente de Leonardo, que trabaja fundamentalmente a flexión y con niveles de agotamiento y deformación mayores.
