Rediseño vial de la rehabilitación de la vía rural la Villegas – plan piloto – Km32 vía Santo Domingo – Quinindé

Abstract

CONDITION FOR PUBLICATION OF PROJECT. The project focuses on the geometric redesign of the rural road La Villegas – Plan Piloto – Km 32, part of the Santo Domingo – Quinindé route, with the objective of optimizing the rehabilitation of rural corridors through the use of digital tools. The hypothesis states that the incorporation of modern methodologies improves design accuracy and enables a more efficient use of available resources. The justification lies in the fact that, based on the existing technical file, opportunities for improvement were identified regarding the optimization of material use and the need to comparatively evaluate design alternatives. For the development, topographic and environmental studies were carried out, along with the use of Civil 3D and Dynamo software, applying BIM methodologies, INEN standards, and multicriteria evaluation criteria. A model was implemented to support the automated calculation of pavement structure material volumes, facilitating the comparison of alternatives and the export of results to spreadsheets for validation. The main findings showed that one of the alternatives achieved a better costefficiency ratio, with reduced processing time and associated environmental and social benefits. In conclusion, the proposed methodology constitutes a replicable technical tool that strengthens rural road planning and contributes to sustainable development.
