Item Implementación del proceso de conservación de la estructura de la capa de rodadura de la vía Pelileo-Patate en el tramo km 4+170 – km 8+260 de la provincia de Tungurahua(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica, Carrera de Ingeniería Civil, 2019) Santamaría Chicaiza, Carlos Andrés; Moya Medina, Dilon GermánThe present experimental work has as purpose to implement a process of conservation of the structure of the rolling layer of the Pelileo-Patate road in the section Km 4 + 170 to the Km 8 + 260 of the province of Tungurahua, with the purpose of obtaining real data of the current state of the road under study. Initially, a georeferenced survey with precision equipment (RTK-10) was carried out, detailing the width of the road, ditches, water passages and sections of the current road. To determine the amount of vehicular traffic, a manual count of each type of vehicle was carried out, for a week (12 consecutive hours from Monday to Sunday) to obtain the Annual Average Daily Traffic (ADPT). An analysis of the soil was carried out using test pits at each kilometer in order to carry out the tests of the altered soil in the laboratory, such as granulometry, compaction and the California support index test (CBR). Subsequently the evaluation of the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) was performed, where we identified the quantity and severity of faults located in the road surface. Finally, the test with the Benkelman beam was developed to determine the pavement deflectometry, tables, graphs and plans were also made that allowed a detailed analysis of the results.
