    Evaluación de la red vial en el área urbana de la parroquia Izamba de la nueva historia de Ambato, comprendida en la zona 27
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica, Carrera de Ingeniería Civil., 2025-02) Guevara Ruiz, Edison Hernan; Cañizares Proaño, Byron Genaro
    This project was designed with the objective of obtaining detailed and updated information on the condition of the roads within the urban area of the Izamba parish, which is part of the new history of the city of Ambato, corresponding to zone 27. In the information gathering phase, standardized technical sheets were used, which facilitated the calculation of the general condition of the roads, applying the pavement condition index (PCI). This index made it possible to classify and determine the level of severity of the faults found, in addition to evaluating the quality of the wearing course. To complement the analysis, soil tests and flexible pavement design tests (TPDA) were also carried out, with the objective of recommending the appropriate thicknesses for the structural pavement package on roads that have not yet been asphalted, an accurate database was prepared that will allow the preparation and implementation of an effective road maintenance plan, adapted to the specific needs of the area. To carry out this work, geo-referenced data were collected using a Global Positioning System (GPS), which made it possible to obtain exact coordinates of the locations to be evaluated. In addition, an exhaustive visual analysis was carried out to identify the main faults present in the road infrastructure. As a result of the project, an estimated budget was generated that covers the costs of road infrastructure maintenance, detailing the expenses associated with each type of deterioration found in the different pavement layers. This budget will serve as a key tool for the Municipality of Ambato, allowing it to make informed, data-driven decisions about necessary interventions on urban roads, thus optimizing the process of maintaining and improving the road network. This is expected to increase safety, public confidence, and foster the city's economic and social growth.

    The main purpose of this project was to gather accurate information on the current condition of roads, sidewalks, and curbs in the Augusto N. Martínez parish in the city of Ambato, with the aim of improving the mobility of drivers and pedestrians. During the first phase, the required information was collected for a database that reflected the condition of sidewalks, curbs, and the different types of faults identified in the study area, using the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) according to type. In the second phase, the index facilitated the classification of faults and their severity levels, as well as the evaluation of the quality of the surface layer. This allowed for the creation of a detailed database to design and implement a road maintenance plan tailored to the specific needs of the area. For data collection, georeferenced surveys were conducted using a Global Positioning System (GPS), achieving precise coordinates of the evaluated points. Additionally, a thorough visual analysis was carried out to identify the main deficiencies in the road infrastructure. As a result, an estimated budget was developed, detailing the costs required for the preservation of the road infrastructure, with specific expenses allocated to each type of damage detected in the different pavement layers. This budget serves as a key tool for the Municipality of Ambato to make informed decisions on priority interventions in urban roads, optimizing maintenance and improvement processes. Through these actions, the goal is to increase road safety, strengthen citizen confidence, and promote the economic and social development of the city.

    Evaluación de la red vial en el área urbana de la parroquia Constantino Fernández de la Nueva Historia de Ambato, comprendida en la zona 12
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica, Carrera de Ingeniería Civil., 2025-02) Caguana Lagua, Hugo Fernando; Cañizares Proaño, Byron Genaro
    This project focuses on the evaluation of the current state of the roads in the urban area of the Constantino Fernández parish in the Ambato canton, included in zone 12, identifying the worn areas and responding to the problem of deterioration of the road infrastructure. Because over time the roads have been deteriorating and an adequate maintenance plan is not developed for the benefit of the community. In this project, a visual inspection of the roads belonging to the designated area was carried out, where it was determined what type of tread layer each of the roads has, collecting data through technical sheets and, continuing with the study, a georeferenced planimetric survey was carried out with the GNSS RTK HI-TARGET V200 equipment and with a DJJ MAVIC AIR 2S DRONE considering the extension of each of the roads under analysis. Based on the ASTM D6433-03 standard and with the PCI method, we identified the types of faults that the roads present, quantifying their severity and allowing us to establish whether the road requires maintenance or reconstruction; when considering a reconstruction, the TPDA was carried out, and soil samples were collected and the necessary tests were carried out in order to determine a new pavement design using the AASHTO 93 standard method. As a result, it was determined that adequate maintenance of the roads in zone 12 of the Constantino Fernández parish must be provided, and a reference budget was developed with items obtained for each type of fault found on the different roads, information that will be delivered to the GAD Municipality of Ambato so that it can make decisions about maintenance or reconstruction of the roads based on the information received, and that it will be a contribution for the benefit of the community in conjunction with the Technical University of Ambato.

    In this project, the need for a road evaluation is presented in the urban roads of the Ambato canton, due to the fact that within the road infrastructure, many deteriorations have been evidenced within the surface layer, which causes discomfort to users. In the present project, the visual evaluation was first carried out in the urban area of the Ambato canton, with the purpose of being able to determine the condition of the pavement through a visual inspection in flexible, rigid and articulated pavements, in addition to taking a GPS point as georeferencing of the faults found. For this purpose, evaluation formats were prepared based on the ASTM D6433 standards, Ecuadorian Road Standard (NEVI-12), and the article in the C. H. Higuera Sandoval magazine, "Pathology of articulated pavements". The collection of information was continued based on the types of failures found, level of severity and their unit of measurement, on the other hand, the abscissa was considered according to the length of each of the roads. Regarding the roads with greater extension, the calculation of the pavement condition index was implemented. Having tabulated the information, the faults were placed on the map using the ArcGIS software, in addition to proceeding with an analysis of unit prices for maintenance or interventions required on the roads. At the end of the evaluation, a database will be delivered to the GAD Municipality of Ambato, which will use the information for the benefit of society as a contribution from the Technical University of Ambato.
