Estudio patológico al puente y sus vías de aproximación, localizado en la intersección de la avenida 15 con el caño Danta, en el municipio de Mitú, departamento de Vaupés

Abstract

The pathology study is carried out on a reinforced concrete bridge in the Municipality of Mitú, Vaupés of length = 24m, of the plate and beam type, and of the approach roads in rigid pavement, which show deterioration. The bridge was built in 1995 and there is no evidence of any maintenance or adaptation since its construction. The bridge connects two important areas of the urban area of Mitú. The methodological application of clinical history, diagnosis and intervention proposal is carried out, based on the criteria learned in the specialization in construction pathology at Santo Tomas University, as described in the inspection manuals of bridges and roads of the National Institute of Vías - INVIAS, and current technical standards. In addition to the field inspection, where different types of injuries were determined, destructive and non-destructive tests were required to determine the state of the materials that make up the structure. Structural vulnerability analysis was performed on the patient to determine the state of the structure. With the results obtained, an analysis of said information was carried out to propose two intervention alternatives that include an underpinning of beams and reinforcement of plates with carbon fibers
