    Drinking water is essential for sustainability in urban and rural areas. For this reason, a proposal was developed to optimize the drinking water supply system in the Chantilín parish. During the technical inspection, it was identified that the system did not cover a neighborhood belonging to the parish and at several points in the network the pressures were excessive or there was a shortage due to water theft on certain days, which motivated the need to carry out this technical project and allowed to diagnose the current state of the system components and the level of operation of the network. This project began with preliminary studies where a cadastre of the existing network of the sector was made, later a topographic survey was carried out with a drone that served to trace the proposed network. Additionally, a hydraulic evaluation of the system was carried out with the measurement of pressures with a manual manometer, in order to determine the efficiency of the system, which led to developing a simulation of the existing network using specialized software in static and dynamic conditions, verifying whether the speeds and pressures were adequate. The improvement proposal includes an optimization plan with a 25-year projection, aligned with the design parameters established by Ecuadorian regulations. Subsequently, a reference budget was prepared with a total value of $328,823.85, which will be presented to the members of the Chantilín Potable Water Management Board (JAAPCH), and technical plans were drawn up detailing each aspect of the proposed improvement process.

    Estudio y diseño de la red de conducción, almacenamiento y distribución de agua potable en la comunidad de Rumichaca perteneciente a la parroquia el Rosario del cantón San Pedro de Pelileo, provincia de Tungurahua

    The purpose of this technical project is the study and design of the driving network, storage and distribution of drinking water for the inhabitants of Rumichaca community belonging to El Rosario parish. Field and exploratory research was instituted for the preparation of this project in order to know the current situation of water consumed in the community, as well as the state of the current network, it started; with the collection of field data, collection of statistical data information provided by the National Institute of Statistics and Censuses (INEC), study and topographic survey; it was taken into account that it is a gravity distribution network, as well as the parameters established by the design standard for drinking water supply systems, disposal of excreta and liquid waste in rural areas, which is in force by the National Secretary of Water (SENAGUA), in addition, free software EPANET was used to guarantee greater security in the results. It should be emphasized that the project has its respective unit price analysis, reference budget, environmental impact assessment, according to the TULSMA environmental standards, technical construction specifications to have a clear vision of what is involved in the satisfactory execution of the project and the respective work plans. At the end of the study, the implementation of a new drinking water network is proposed, which will improve the quality of 553 inhabitants of Rumichaca community by guaranteeing a continuous service of previously treated water, meeting the minimum requirements such as pressures, flows and speeds required by the current Ecuadorian standard.
