Correlaciones interpolinómicas de los parámetros de resistencia en los distintos tipos de suelos de los sectores de: “Carcelén, Argelia Alta y Valle de Tumbaco”

Abstract

The present research proposes the development of polynomial correlations (multiple linear) focused on the resistance parameters of soils (cohesion and friction angle), depending on the physical properties of the soils of the Sectors of: Carcelén, Argelia Alta and Tumbaco Valley; in order to verify or complement information at the time of being evaluated, in relation to the Geotechnical or Civil Engineering fields, reducing costs and time when performing field and laboratory tests. At the beginning of the experimental part, study areas are fixed, with the purpose of extracting blocks of unaltered samples and detailing the conditions of the sites at the time of extraction; to then execute the different laboratory tests (moisture content, specific gravity, natural density, consistence limits, SUCS classification and direct shear). Also, the use of weight-volume relationships is implemented such as: porosity, void index, dry density, saturation, and specific submerged weight; to obtain more soil characteristics. Finally, for data analysis, the use of a statistical software is proposed, to carry out analysis of variance (ANOVA), residual assumptions, confidence levels, statistical error, etc., related to a degree of viable efficiency, which is oriented to obtain equations and adequate correlation coefficients.
