Diseño geométrico de la vía alterna desde el sitio Corral Viejo hasta la parroquia El Retiro, en el cantón Machala.

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to solve the need that currently exists in the study route, this will be done through the topographical equipment that is required for the collection of the information necessary for its design. In this road we can verify that its geometry is irregular, therefore it is susceptible to changes, especially in winter seasons, so this road was created by the same producers in the area, making a connection between the limits of the entrance to the bridge metallic of Santa Rosa with the parish the retreat. It should be noted that on certain occasions there are national strikes of transporters, they close the road blocking the entrance to Machala, El Guabo and Pasaje, at the height of the park La Paz diagonal to the Jorge Chávez gas station, having said that the road in design is used for to be able to connect with the aforementioned cantons. However, the current state of the road is terrible, generating discomfort for the vehicles in circulation, quite apart from the fact that being in these conditions the antisocials take advantage of this to be able to block the passage to snatch the belongings of the users. Along the path of the road there is a sector whose name is Coop. January 27, where families go out daily to drop off their children in the city of Santa Rosa, who are studying at the respective educational institutions they belong to, generating discomfort in them due to the carelessness of the respective authorities. Banana producers are affected by the fact that their export product (banana) does not arrive in the same quality as it comes out of their packing houses, the heavy-duty vehicles that transport them tend to spoil the fruit, caused by the road that is in a bad way state, on occasions they have rejected their products on the boats due to the poor quality in which they arrive. Therefore, with this design, the road will be in optimal conditions to improve the quality of life of the users who transit it. For the design we have been governed based on the current regulations that exist in our environment for the design and geometric layout of roads, looking for the best alternative solution, identifying what type of road it is (First order, Second order, Third order and Fourth order), at the time of making the calculations in the vehicular capacity we have determined that the road in design is fourth order, based on this we can determine the structural package that is required for its correct flexible pavement design. To carry out this design, it was done with Civil 3D software, generating all the data required in the project, such as contour lines, longitudinal and transversal profiles, earthworks, etc. It is very important to have clear knowledge acquired in the study period about this software that works with the road regulations that currently exist, so as not to make mistakes in the design that usually arise in the misinterpretation or placement of data in it. With the help of the software, the necessary data was extracted to be able to extract our quantities of works defined in each item of our referential budget, making the respective work programming, within which the following schedules of equipment, materials and labor were elaborated. , in order to define the duration of our project, it has been done with the help of the Microsoft Project program, where we define each item within it and process the corresponding data that the program requires and in this way we have reached a duration of 128 days for the execution of our road project.
