This work presents a study developed to determine the resistance indices of multifamily buildings type INFONAVIT in the port of Acapulco, Guerrero. Furthermore, lateral capacity curves of the vertical elements are obtained and compared with the loads produced by the earthquake. The development of specialized software and the execution of interactive analyzes allowed the definition of economic protection and rehabilitation strategies for the most critical walls in each of the buildings studied in order to establish a rehabilitation and rehabilitation program that increases the safety factor in them. It is advisable to propose measures that provide greater structural security. Regarding models A and B, the result is a little favorable and effective solutions must be sought that impose an adequate resistance to seismic stress on the set of existing walls. The study analyzes the structural behavior of multifamily buildings of social interest in Guerrero, particularly in Acapulco, in the face of the region's high seismic risk. Three architectural models (A, B and C) were evaluated using dynamic analyzes and resistance calculations, identifying deficiencies in load-bearing walls and concrete elements. The results show significant vulnerabilities, especially in models A and B, while model C presents better performance. Economic and technical recovery strategies are proposed, such as the addition of concrete walls and improvements in flexural compression, to increase structural safety and mitigate damage.
