A road designed with technical and regulatory parameters allows rural and urban areas to experience a surge in economic, social, and cultural development. Based on this criterion and the needs of the Mocha canton, this technical project aims to design the geometric layout of the road connecting the El Porvenir sector with the Pinguilí Las Lajas parish. To achieve this objective, numerous activities were carried out, including a topographic survey using GNSS equipment, a traffic study, a soil study, and the design of the pavement structure. The culmination of these activities resulted in a 3+3437.58 kilometer road that, with a design period of 20 years and considering a growth rate of 4.54%, will have a vehicular capacity of 1,342 vehicles per day. This road will have a flexible pavement with a structural layer consisting of a 20-centimeter subbase, a 15-centimeter base, and a 7.5-centimeter-thick asphalt surface course, which meets minimum regulatory requirements. Finally, after a technical and economic analysis, a budget of $ dollars was obtained, and a schedule was developed with an estimated execution time of seven months.

A road infrastructure in optimal condition is essential to ensure connectivity, safe mobility, and community development. In this context, and considering the needs of the Quisapincha parish, this project aims to develop a road maintenance plan for the road connecting the Turuloma and Galpón neighborhoods, as its condition shows considerable deterioration that affects traffic, road safety, and the socioeconomic development of the area. In addition, structural failures such as cracks and potholes increase risks for users and limit traffic flow. The development of an efficient road maintenance plan began with a comprehensive assessment of the current condition of the road. This phase included a topographic survey using RTK equipment, soil analysis to establish its physical and mechanical properties, and a traffic study. To complement this information, the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) was applied, which allowed for an objective measurement of the degree of deterioration of the road. With the information gathered, an optimal structural design for flexible pavements was developed and a reference budget was formulated, ensuring efficient and sustainable road construction. After a thorough analysis, it was determined that over the next 20 years, the road evaluated will support an average traffic volume of 1,856 (one thousand eight hundred and fifty-six) vehicles per day. Based on these conditions, the road was classified as Class II, and it was noted that the 4.4 km road is fully paved; however, there were a total of forty-nine faults. Likewise, an average CBR index value of 11.38% was determined through soil studies, classifying the subgrade as between fair and good for structural use. Based on this data, a flexible pavement with a total thickness of 45 cm was designed, distributed in 5 cm of asphalt pavement, 20 cm of granular base, and 20 cm of subbase. Finally, the reference budget yielded a total project cost of $575,467.53 (five hundred seventy-five thousand four hundred sixty-seven dollars and fiftythree cents) after a comprehensive technical study.

This technical project focuses on making a proposal for the geometric design of the road that connects the sectors called Salcahe Tiobamba, Salache grande and the PanAmerican Highway E35. The justification for this intervention lies in the absolute need for an optimal road infrastructure, designed and executed in accordance with current technical regulations, which is a critical factor for sustained socioeconomic development and operational safety. To this end, an on-site visit to the project was made in order to carry out the topographic survey with high-precision GNSS RTK equipment, a vehicle count called TPDA, and also to excavate soil samples to determine the properties in the laboratory. The geometric design of the road was also carried out following the current MTOP and NEVI 12 regulations, which give us the technical parameters of the horizontal and vertical alignment and cross-sections. Upon analyzing the results, it was possible to determine the Type III road, undulating relief and the prevailing soil along sections 1 and 2 is a silty sandy soil, whose subgrade varies between regular, good and excellent, which are favorable aspects for road design and construction. The pavement structure consists of a 20 cm subbase, a 15 cm base and a 5 cm asphalt layer. Finally, a reference budget of $412,795.24 was calculated based on a breakdown of all the activities to be carried out during the construction of the project

This Technical Project focuses on addressing the needs faced by the inhabitants of the Juigua Yacubamba, Juigua Rayoloma and Juigua La Playa communities, who are dedicated to agriculture and livestock. The main objective was to improve the road infrastructure in order to provide safe circulation, reduce travel time and promote the socioeconomic development of its inhabitants. The project was structured in three specific phases based on the objectives set. The first included field activities, such as field recognition, topographic survey, vehicle counting and the extraction of soil samples through test pits. In the second phase, the geometric design of the road was carried out, taking into consideration the parameters established by current regulations, including the horizontal and vertical design, as well as drainage works, slope and pavement structure. Finally, the third phase focused on the preparation of the reference budget using qualitative and quantitative research as a baseline. Based on the results, an existing mountainous relief was determined and a Third Class collector road was classified with a silty sandy soil which is optimal for use as a subgrade. The pavement structure design is composed of 5 cm thick asphalt, 10 cm thick class 3 base and 20 cm thick class 4 subbase. Finally, in order to know the feasibility of the work by detailing each of the items with their respective work volumes and technical specifications, a reference budget of $1,232,337.07 was estimated. This investment will improve connectivity between the communities and the urban area, promoting economic growth in the communities.

Social development and road safety are closely related to the quality and functionality of the road infrastructure, which must meet the appropriate technical requirements. This technical project focuses on addressing the challenges associated with the growth of vehicular flow on the Pillaro road, proposing a comprehensive solution based on the optimization of its geometric design. The main objective is to improve traffic conditions and reduce travel times for tourists using this route, thus contributing to the tourism and economic development of the region. In order to meet this objective, fundamental activities were carried out, such as a topographic survey using a high-precision GNSS system, an exhaustive analysis of vehicular traffic, and soil studies carried out in accordance with current regulations. These analyses were essential to determine the physical and mechanical characteristics of the terrain, crucial elements in the formulation of the design proposal. The optimization proposal includes both the geometric redesign of the road and the structural calculation of the pavement, incorporating these elements in an estimated budget and an execution schedule. A total road length of 4.875 km was established, along with a projected annual average daily traffic (ADAT) of 7805 vehicles/day for a design period of 20 years. This projection allowed the road to be classified as a Class 1 arterial road, in compliance with current regulations. As a result, the soil studies revealed a design CBR of 20.31 percent, qualifying the material as highly suitable for use as subgrade. Based on these results, the optimum thicknesses for the different layers of the road were determined: 7.5 cm for the asphalt layer, 15 cm for the base and 20 cm for the subbase, thus guaranteeing the durability and functionality of the road. In addition, a detailed economic analysis was carried out, estimating an execution budget of $1,467,274.83. This investment is intended to improve connectivity between the communities and the urban area, promoting economic development in the region.

A road infrastructure designed in accordance with current technical standards is crucial for promoting socioeconomic improvement of territorial connectivity and guaranteeing the safety of users. In this context, the objective of this study is formulating a comprehensive proposal of road maintenance of the road that connects the Danzapamba and San José de Barba La Y neighborhoods. This initiative arises due to the current structural and functional deficiencies pf the road, which compromise significantly improving road safety, vehicle mobility and pedestrian protection. For this purpose, a topographic survey was conducted using RTK equipment and drone. Additionally, vehicle counts were carried out over seven days a week and 24 hours a day. Subsequently, a visual inspection of existing failures was performed using the PCI (Pavement Condition Index) method, where each of the existing failures in the pavement were evaluated. Based on this information a maintenance proposal was developed along with the preparation of the referential budget. The results an TPDA of 3001 vehicles/day and a projected TPDAf of 6792 vehicles/day a 20-year period. Along the 5 km stretch, a total of 44 failures were indefinitely, predominantly longitudinal and transverse cracks, likewise, through laboratory tests, it was determined that the soil is a silty sand through the SUCS classification and granular material of group A-2-4 in the AASTHO classification. For the pavement design, a structural layer with a total thickness of 45 cm was calculated, leading to a referential budget of $685.945,65.

The eastern region, due to its geographic location in particular, has characteristics that make the road infrastructure susceptible to natural risks such as landslides, settlements, collapses and ground instabilities. These conditions directly affect mobility, generating incidences in the economic and social activities that depend on these road systems; therefore, in this experimental research project, a structural evaluation of the pavement is carried out, through studies of: soils, hydrography and the identification of geological faults, in order to mitigate the risk of accidents caused by the high rainfall characteristic of the eastern area under study. The investigation began with a visual recognition of the study point, observing the geography and topography of the analysis area. During this stage, the presence of a settlement on the roadway could be seen, so the georeferenced topographic survey was carried out, allowing a specific assessment of the relief and shape of the terrain. Likewise, samples were taken for the study of soils by means of test pits, finding a greater presence of coarse material. These samples were later transported to the laboratory where the corresponding tests were carried out to determine the physical and mechanical properties of the collected soil. The presence of geological faults in the road network was also identified. Likewise, the hydrography of the study area was analyzed. As a result of the evaluation, it was concluded that the settlement detected in the roadway is mainly caused by the infiltration of water into the road network between the aforementioned abscissas. For this reason, a channeling system for surface and infiltrated water was designed as part of the solution to the problem, which includes the use of alternative solutions such as the French drain.

The present technical project of a road nature originates in response to the vehicular growth experienced by the Mocha-Pinguilí road, which has a direct impact on the geometric layout of the road. Currently, vehicles have difficulties when taking curves that do not have an adequate radius for efficient mobility. Likewise, as this is a commercial route, heavy truck traffic is common, so the current roadway width and pavement structure do not satisfy the growth of vehicles. This project began with a topographic survey using RTK equipment, followed by a traffic study using the 30th hour method. The soil study involved taking samples of the subgrade every 500 meters to analyze its characteristics and properties in the laboratory by means of moisture content, granulometry, Atterberg limits, modified Proctor type B and CBR tests. The geometric layout was made using the Ecuadorian standard MOP-2003, and some suggestions were taken from the standards: Peruvian DG-2018 and AASHTO-2018. The pavement design was developed according to the AASHTO-93 methodology and finally the project's referential budget was made. As a result, an undulating-mountainous relief was determined; the traffic study established a TPDAf of 2,762 vehicles/day and a number of equivalent axles of 1,716,466. A design CBR of 17.72% was determined. The geometric design established a 4-lane roadway and a reference budget of 2'153,849.70

This research project is based on the lack of conservation management of the old PanAmerican Highway E35 in the Lasso sector; the road has different anomalies in the pavement, which, if not maintained in a timely manner, would cause inconveniences to the population of the sector. In the study of the structure of the wearing course, a georeferenced survey of the road was carried out with the help of GNSS RTK HI-TARGET V30 equipment, a volumetric traffic count, evaluation of the physical components present on the road, field and laboratory tests to determine the pavement structure and soil composition, and a visual inspection to determine the level of damage to the wearing course and its structural behavior. These analyses made it possible to determine the traffic performance of the road, classifying it as an RI - RII (2) Arterial Corridor. The average CBR was also calculated at 66.6 percent, which classifies it as good, suitable for base use. The soil composition shows a high content of poorly graded sands, a wearing course that is rated as good with an average PCI (Pavement Condition Index) score of 64.65 points. The Benkelman beam shows Type I deflections, which correspond to adequate structural behavior. As a result, a conservation plan for the road is proposed based on the current damages evaluated in the structure of the wearing course, offering solutions for a correct rehabilitation, conservation and maintenance of the road.
