ANÁLISE TÉCNICA DA IMPLANTAÇÃO DE BACIA DE CONTENÇÃO PARA MINIMIZAR OS IMPACTOS CAUSADOS POR INUNDAÇÕES NO MUNICÍPIO DE TRÊS PONTAS

Abstract

This work analyzes the implementation of a containment basin to minimize the impacts caused by floods in the municipality of Três Pontas, Minas Gerais. In Brazil, urban

population has increased, but without adequate city planning, significant impacts on urban drainage have begun to emerge. This approach is necessary because flooding in urban areas is recurrent and has been exacerbated by the disorderly growth of cities. The objective of this work is a technical analysis for the implementation of a flood containment system and its proper sizing, based on data provided by the civil engineer and Technical Department of the Municipal Government of Três Pontas. At the end of the study, it was possible to determine the area for the construction of the containment basin through calculations of flow sizing, surface runoff, and the precipitation intensity (mm/h) of the region. Through this, the real need for the construction of containment basins in municipalities with significant floods was highlighted, bringing benefits and quality of life to the entire population.
