Abstract

The COLIBRÍ robotic observatory is being developed for observing the optical counterparts of GRBs detected by the SVOM satellite. It will be located at the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional in San Pedro Mártir, México. The project is a collaboration between France and México. For this purpose the astronomical instrument DDRAGO is under the last phase of critical design and starting its construction. The structural design techniques applied for developing DDRAGO are described. The mechanical calculations and finite element analysis of the instrument are included and translated into their respective error budget.
