Estudo de traçado para elaboração de projeto geométrico de rodovias: trecho da estrada de ligação da vila Maurícia e PA-408 em Santa Bárbara do Pará.

Abstract

The present work aims to elaborate a study of layout for the elaboration of the geometric project of a section of the vicinal road connecting the village of Maurícia, a small community located in the municipality of Santa Bárbara do Pará, with the PA-408 highway. The data collection of the segment was carried out in loco using survey techniques by topography and GNSS positioning. Data processing and study design were guided by the Geometric Design Manual for Rural Roads (DNER, 1999 Edition). The results achieved in the design of the horizontal layout were satisfactory while there were two atypical situations in the calculation of the adequacy of the vertical curves related to the longitudinal profile of the terrain and the length of the curves that require further studies. In general terms, the results obtained in this work were acceptable and it is expected that it can serve as a starting point and/or support for further studies on the geometric design of highways.
