Estudio de la vulnerabilidad física de las edificaciones ubicadas en la colina San Bartolo del cantón Guaranda frente a la ocurrencia de deslizamiento, en el periodo septiembre - diciembre 2024.

The research project entitled “Study of the physical vulnerability of the buildings located in the ‘San Bartolo’ hill of Guaranda canton to the occurrence of landslides, in the period September - December 2024”, was based on qualitative and quantitative methodologies, adopting a cross-sectional, mixed, descriptive and field approach, its main objective is to assess the physical vulnerability of buildings to landslide hazards. In order to analyze landslide susceptibility, the importance of applying the SHALSTAB Module methodology, based on Mohr-Coulomb's law, was emphasized, in which it was fundamental to consider factors such as contour lines, slope, accumulation zones and the q/T of stable and unstable zones for the development of the landslide susceptibility map, Of the 30 hectares of the San Bartolo hill, 57% is a stable zone, while 20% (i.e. 7 hectares) is categorized as a very high landslide susceptibility zone, indicating that the population is located in areas that are highly susceptible to landslides. To determine the level of physical vulnerability of the buildings, the methodology of the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) was used, which had as reference the houses exposed to areas susceptible to landslides, that is, approximately 19 houses, obtaining as results 17 houses with a high vulnerability level and 2 houses with very high vulnerability, this could be due to the fact that most of these buildings are located in landslide risk areas, thus corroborating the information obtained. Based on these findings, mitigation measures were designed, both structural and non-structural, in order to reduce the risk. These actions are aimed at the competent authorities, allowing them to make quick decisions based on principles of sustainable development, slope stabilization and construction of resilient buildings, in order to minimize material and economic damage and, in the worst cases, the loss of human lives
