Item Evaluación del estado de las vías urbanas de la ciudad de Latacunga(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica, Carrera de Ingeniería Civil, 2021-09) Tirado Tulcan, Galy Galiano; Aldás Sánchez, Milton RodrigoThe degree work is an evaluation model for roads in the urban area of the city of Latacunga, by means of a visual inspection for pavements, transversal elements and signaling. Flexible pavements were evaluated using visual inspection manuals proposed by the National Roads Institute INVIAS, where the pathologies present in the roads were collected according to their type, degree of severity and extension in stretches of about one hundred meters. For articulated pavements, an inventory of damages and the calculation of the pavement condition index were carried out. For flexible pavements, the possible interventions to be carried out were established based on what was proposed by the MTOP regulations in relation to the type and severity of the failures obtained in the visual inspection. Likewise, solutions were established according to the type and severity for each failure in the articulated pavements. Cross section diagrams were made for each road evaluated, by taking data in the field for subsequent analysis and verification of distances established by AASHTO, referring to the type of road and zone. The vertical and horizontal signs were evaluated visually to define their condition, in addition to the data collection of the design dimensions and location on the road for verification with the provisions of the INEN 2015 regulations.Keywords: Roads, evaluation, signaling, pavements.
