Análisis de los elementos geométricos del drenaje transversal en el sitio La Palestina, parroquia Barbones, cantón El Guabo

Abstract

The drains in the roads allow the evacuation of rainwater, in order to avoid flooding, therefore they must consider the maximum flows for their design and that their operation is the most efficient according to the flow it receives. The objective of the project is to analyze the current culvert in the area Palestina of the canton El Guabo, province of El Oro to determine if it fulfills its purpose or if it is necessary to redesign the culvert. For this analysis, the pragmatic methodology is used, which allows the use of practical and theoretical criteria in topography, current regulations and culvert design. The analysis details the design of the sewer, velocity, flow, and natural slope of the terrain.
