Caracterização geotécnica de solos através de ensaios laboratoriais para aplicação em estruturas de pavimento caso de estudo: Bairro do Albazine na Cidade de Maputo

Abstract

For road construction works, the study of the characteristics of the materials used for paving is extremely important.´used in paving is of extreme importance, since there is a great variation in the types and variation in soil types and characteristics. For this reason it is necessary to analyse their properties in relation to strength, deformability and permeability, both in its natural and natural state as well as in its compacted state. This work consists of determining and classifying geotechnical characteristics of the soil of the Albasine Albasine region in Maputo municipality in different classifications, as well as to present the purpose of the soil in present the purpose of the soil under analysis for use in the construction of road pavements. roads. The properties of the soil under study were determined by geotechnical laboratory tests, based on the results obtained. laboratory, based on the results obtained were classified into the two most widespread geotechnical the most widespread geotechnical classifications, the TRB (Transportation Research Board) classification for road purposes and the SUS (Transportation Research Board) classification. (Transportation Research Board) and the SUSC - (Unified Soil Classification System). Soil Classification System). The analysis of the sample data obtained through tests, enabled the characterisation of the soil, as well as its indication for paving. (TRADUÇAO NOSSA)
