Cuando trabajas en un proyecto o vas a levantar un muro ya sea de tabique rojo, block, surge una pregunta que es clave:
¿A cuánto se deben de colocar los castillos para que el muro no se caiga?
La respuesta puede ser simple pero hay más de lo que parece, Quédate y sigue leyendo.
Las normas técnicas complementarias vigentes al momento de escribir este artículo (estamos en el año 2025) especifican que la separación no debe ser mayor a 4.0 metros ni a 1.5 veces la altura. Aunque considero que es mejor colocarlos a una distancia no mayor a 3.0 metros.
❗¿Quieres evitar errores por no saber dónde colocar los castillos?
Este paquete de planos estructurales ya tiene resuelto eso por ti: castillos colocados cada 3 m conforme a norma, con dalas y muros confinados.
¿Por qué es importante la separación entre castillos?
Por las siguientes razones:
En el muro, son los que resisten los empujes laterales como los debidos a sismo y viento.
Previenen que en el muro se presente el pandeo
Se conectan a trabes, dalas y a la misma cimentación para formar un sistema estructural confiable
Si pones los castillos demasiado separados:
El muro puede ser inestable
Por lo mismo se pueden generar en el grietas
Puede colapsar ante un evento sísmico.
Errores comunes que debes evitar
❌ “Solo poner castillos en las esquinas”
Esto es muy peligroso, el muro se puede fracturar.
❌ “Mi barda mide 10 metros y no le puse castillos”
Puede desplomarse o tirarla un sismo
❌ “Con malla electrosoldada ya no necesito más castillos”
La malla no sustituye a los castillos, serviría en todo caso para controlar pequeñas fisuras, no para soportar cargas o sismos.
🧱 Lo que está en el reglamento es claro… pero en la obra, todo se complica si el plano no lo muestra.
Por eso diseñamos este paquete de 2 planos donde ya está todo colocado como debe ser:
Castillos con la separación adecuada, además de las dalas sobre una estructura real.
Recomendación profesional
Aunque hay reglas prácticas, la mejor decisión siempre será con base en un cuidadoso diseño estructural.
El costo de poner la cantidad adecuada de castillos es mucho menor que el de reconstruir un muro dañado.
Si vas a construir una barda o un muro largo, cuando menos consulta a un arquitecto o ingeniero civil.
Un buen diseño te ahorrará reparaciones, multas por parte de las autoridades y accidentes.
Ahora ya sabes que separacion debe tener un castillos de otro.
