Estudo do processo executivo do pavimento em um condomínio horizontal em Anápolis

Abstract

The present undergraduate thesis aims to reflect, analyze, and contribute to possibilities for improvement in the execution of flexible pavement layers. The method employed in developing this paper was a literature review. The goal is to conduct a case study on the execution process of a flexible pavement in a horizontal condominium, comparing construction practices with current standards and analyzing the final product. The main authors underpinning this research were Balbo (2007) for the analysis of pavement contextualization and DNIT for normative analysis linked to pavement execution. At the end of this work, the on-site research findings and the types of inadequacies throughout the execution process are presented. The monitoring of construction activities, as well as the results of the analysis of samples collected from the quarries under study, demonstrated the importance of fully complying with current guidelines and normative parameters for the processes that make up earthworks and asphalt coating. The research concluded that the overall objective was achieved, indicating that the pavement stages followed the standards, with only two stages presenting issues, which currently do not cause significant impacts due to low vehicle traffic. The results underscore the importance of physical presence in the executive stages of earthworks, binding layer application, and asphalt coating. Two main errors in earthworks were identified: the lack of material moisture content verification before compaction and the application of the binding layer without laboratory presence, contrary to DNIT guidelines. The research also suggests possible improvements to enhance this executive process in the future.
