Estudio y diseño geométrico de la vía que une las comunidades Miñarica Bajo y Carmelitas, perteneciente a la parroquia Santa Rosa cantón Ambato, provincia de Tungurahua y estabilización de taludes por medio de geotextiles

Abstract

This technical project was carried out in order to establish an appropriate geometric design for the road connecting the communities Miñarica Bajo with Carmelitas improving the traffic flow. For the geometric design of the project “Normas de Diseño Geométrico de Carreteras MOP-2003" they were used and to establish the pavement structure the AASHTO-93 method was used. To develop the project initially a topographical survey, traffic study and testing of soil samples collected from test pits to determine soil characteristics, mainly the CBR was made. Then the horizontal, vertical and transverse road design according to the rules was made; then the design of the pavement structure and drainage system. As for slope stability, the limit equilibrium analysis was used, using one of the methods “Tablas de Janbú” to determine the safety factor of the slope analyzed.

In addition the unit price analysis, environmental measures, budget, schedule work valued and technical specifications was made; and finally the conclusions and recommendations of the project.
