Propuesta vial para la unión del barrio Buenos Aires con la avenida 45a Floridablanca-Piedecuesta en el municipio de Floridablanca-Santander.

Abstract

This project developed a proposal for the improvement of pavement in slab-footprint for the alternate road that connects the Buenos Aires neighborhood (Floridablanca, Santander), with the 45th Floridablanca-Piedecuesta avenue and the rest of the municipality. Said proposal is based on the need to build a pavement that generates durability and passability for this road, which has had an increase in traffic volume in recent years. In the development of the project, the parameters required by the INVIAS regulations used during the planning stage of an existing tertiary highway were taken into account, developed in the following order: The first part was to obtain the topography of the area of influence of the project using aerial photogrammetry, which allowed the acquisition of a high-precision cadastral map. This information was exported to software to produce a digital elevation model of the terrain and generate contour lines for geometric design. A second part, where a traffic analysis and a soil study were carried out that would allow knowing the physical-mechanical characteristics of the subgrade of the road. Finally, the geometric design of the section of track had as components the horizontal and vertical alignment and cross sections. In addition to the structural design, where the dimensions and materials of all the elements of the pavement were taken into account. Finally, the location of surface drainage works and the official budget for the execution of the work.
