Este artigo estuda o Forte “La Planchada”, localizado no sul do Chile. Considerando a natureza deste monumento nacional, o estudo se concentra na análise e caracterização de seus aspectos de construção: desenho, geometria, materialidade e técnicas de construção; aspectos que fazem parte da perspectiva do poliorcetismo (ou arte militar). Do ponto de vista metodológico, utilizando recursos técnicos históricos, a reconstrução do forte em estudo culminou através de uma revisão da literatura e trabalho de campo. A arte das técnicas de poliorcética e construção, usadas pelos principais escritores do século XVII sobre fortificações e seus princípios, foram aplicadas à construção original do forte, considerando as dificuldades e as soluções de seu tempo. As características do forte original e uma análise de reparos sucessivos revelaram a existência dos três projetos diferentes ao longo de sua história.
