Abstract

The current road project has a length of 2.86 km with the aim of improving and rehabilitating the road "Mulligua - San Juan Siles"; under the need to activate the development and social integration of the current living conditions of the inhabitants of the canton of Pangua. With the purpose of solving this need, the corresponding studies described in the present project are carried out, in which the field works are included. Starting with the topographic study in which a strip of points in coordinates and height linked to plates of the I.G.M was obtained as a result; continuing with the study of traffic and geometry, obtaining values of vehicle loads to refine as much as possible under current regulations existing vertical and horizontal curves, allowing the safe circulation of both light and heavy vehicles and the design of the structure of the pavement. There is also a hydrological - hydraulic study and signaling, which will allow us to improve road safety conditions and maintain the useful life of the structure through the proper evacuation of rainwater that falls on the road. And finally, an environmental and economic - financial study was obtained, defining the environmental impacts that the future construction of the project will have and establishing the respective indicators such as the TIR, the VAN and the cost benefit.
