    Evaluación funcional y estructural del pavimento de la vía Manuelita Saenz desde la intersección con la av. Quiz Quiz hasta la intersección con la av. José Peralta

    The purpose of this technical project is to carry out the evaluation of the operation and structural conditions of the pavement of one of the main collector roads located south of the city of Ambato. The thesis began with the determination of the TPDA through a traffic analysis through the realization of counts and categorization of the vehicles that circulate on the road. For the functional evaluation of the pavement, the PCI (Pavement Condition Index) method was used, which is based on a visual classification of the faults of the tread layer of the pavements for their respective assessment quantitatively according to the level of damage that has the same. To complement the above information, the measurement of deflections in the pavement was carried out through the Benkelman beam to verify compliance with the admissible deformations. Additionally, a soil study investigation was carried out, it was discovered that the properties of the particle layer of the pavement structure complied with the specifications proposed by MTOP. Finally, in the study of asphalt concrete, the percentage of bitumen of several samples taken from two sections of the track was obtained. It was determined that in the old asphalt concrete the percentage of asphalt is lower than the optimum while the repaved section meets the required specifications Finally, this thesis is concluded with a budget of the most deteriorated sections.
