Design Alternative of a Portico System for the Municipal Palace of the Mayor's Office of Acacias Meta, in the central zone of the urban area

Acacias, a key municipality in Meta, suffered a serious impact on May 2, 2021, when a fire that occurred during a social protest destroyed the mayor's office, causing great material damage and affecting the functionality of the offices. Currently, the offices are dispersed, making it difficult for the community to carry out administrative procedures. Therefore, the objective of this degree work is to design a new building for the mayor's office that unifies all the offices in a single location. To do this, the methodology used is a quantitative approach, including all the calculations required for the structural design of the building. The work was carried out in 5 phases: Research and bibliographic review, preliminary design, analysis and technical evaluation, estimation of the cost of the structure (without finishes) and finally the final delivery. The final results obtained from this work include topographic survey activities, preparation of architectural plans, structural report and budget of the work. Likewise, quantity reports, general budget and structural designs were prepared. In conclusion, the unification of the offices in a single location will resolve the current difficulties for citizens, which will improve administrative efficiency and optimize the use of resources.
