Estudio De La Condición Superficial Del Pavimento De Concreto Reforzado Con Geoceldas (CRG) En Vías Terciarias. Caso De Estudio Vía Terciaria El Agrado – Muelle Guaraní, En El Departamento Del Huila

Abstract

In this degree work we studied an 11,8 kilometer section of the El Agrado - Muelle Guaraní tertiary road, located in the department of Huila, which will be paved in 2021 with geocell reinforced concrete - GRC -, for this purpose the surface structure of the pavement of the section in question was surveyed, applying the methodology of visual inspection of articulated pavements developed by the University of Medellin 2010; It should be noted that the GRC is classified as an efficient road improvement technology, becoming a sustainable alternative compared to other traditional construction techniques of improvement in tertiary roads such as the footprint plate; in addition, this work included a description of the construction process, desing, unit price analysis and the advantages of using the GRC pavement. The above, in order to provide useful information to the reader for its application and decision making in future projects that are focused on solving the national problem regarding the poor state of trafficability in which the tertiary network is found through the use of new technologies, contributing to the growth and progress of the national and regional economy, since the tertiary network has a key role, as it is the largest transport infrastructure in the national territory.
