Estudio de la capacidad portante del suelo del centro poblado Santa Rosa de Cumbaza en el distrito de Tarapoto
The following research titled as "Study of soil carrying capacity in Santa Rosa Village Center in the District of Tarapoto" was developed with the purpose of studying, identifying and evaluating the types of soils that exist in the urban area of said Painted Center and determine its carrying capacity, to be used in building constructions, looking for practical and scientific solutions to the problem of building without knowing the real behavior of the soil, avoiding settlement and deterioration of the buildings, affecting the omato and therefore the quality of life of the users, among others. Applying for this the fundamental concepts of Soil Mechanics and Geotechnics, said study was based on the results obtained after having executed the respective exploration and soil sampling indicated in the Standard E050 of the National Regulation of Buildings and laboratory tests of moisture content limits of consistency (atterberg) granulometric analysis, field density, direct cutting and classification of soils, taking into account the established norms in force, likewise these tests have allowed to determine the physical and mechanical properties of the foundation soil, as well as the type of soil and its characteristics. Soils were classified by the SUCS method, which indicates the presence of soils of fine granulometry throughout the sector divided into soils of fine granulometry of clayey type CL and CH, and fine grained granulometry soils of type SM SC and SM, with a low to medium percentage of humidity, Two well defined geotechnical zones have been determined, called Zone I and Zone II, which are delimited in Zone I by C 01, C 02, C 03, C 05, C 06, C 09, C 10, C 14, C 15, C 16, C 17 and C 18, in Zone II by C 04, C 07, C 08, C 11, C 12 and C 13, C 19 and C 20, the allowable capacity in Zone I with a foundation depth of 1.50 meters and a foundation width of 1.00 meters is between 0.74 to 0.80 Kg cm2 with an average allowable capacity of 0.77 kg cm2 or 7.70 tn m2, the allowable capacity in Zone II with a foundation depth of 1.50 meters and a foundation width of 1.00 meters is between 1.39 to 1.90 Kg cm2 with an average allowable capacity of 1.65 kg cm2 or 16.50 tn m2.
