Item Diseño geométrico y del pavimento de la vía entre los sectores quebrada Yarahuaico - Cundualo - Laipo Grande, tramo abscisas km 0+000 - 4+760, parroquia Juan Montalvo, cantón Latacunga, provincia de Cotopaxi(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica, Carrera de Ingeniería Civil, 2024-08) Chancusig Gavilanes, Erika Fernanda; Guevara Robalino, Jorge JavierCurrently, there is a need among communities to be able to communicate and that the products from the harvests could arrive on time and in good conditions to improve their economy, productivity and quality of life. The project began with a non-experimental transectional research design, supported by the search for data in situ, with a descriptive scope and quantitative approach. A road with a distance of 3,834 km was obtained, its maximum design speed was 60 km/h, with a 7.20 m roadway and 0.60 m ditches on each side of the road, of rural classification type III. The initial pavement structure offered an uneconomical design which was optimized without going beyond the limits, giving as such a thickness of 5 cm for the asphalt concrete, 10 cm of base with type 3 material and 20 cm of subbase with class 3 stone material, for which a total investment of $ 3,684,351,91 was required. Roads are the geographical elements that allow communication between one point and another. From their planning to their construction and commissioning, a series of activities are carried out, some more complex than others. However, the method for their geometric layout and road surface design will always be subject to standards and regulations. As a result, an optimal design for the sector was obtained, which is within the budgeted and planned.
