ANÁLISE E CARACTERIZAÇÃO DO SISTEMA DE MICRODRENAGEM URBANA NO CENTRO DO MUNICÍPIO DE TRÊS CORAÇÕES: Estudo de uma galeria de águas pluviais

Abstract

This work analyzes and proposes a project for the microdrainage system in the central region of the city of Três Corações - MG. Such an approach is justified by the innumerable disorders experienced by the population due to torrential rains. The object of study will be the gallery of rainwater, which at various times is arranged below several buildings and has faults in its ability to drive rainfall, causing flooding in streets and main avenues, where vehicle and people traffic is big. This work presents the analyzes that must be done in the implantation of a microdrainage system and characterization of the existing gallery, according to the theoretical framework developed. The study is an action research, making it necessary to collect the data about the study area, such as the area of contribution of the basin, the characterization of the soil, installed drainage devices and their operating states, to later make the information, to later make an intervention with a project proposal. The solution to the problem is to change the layout of the gallery and increase the dimensions in some sections. The results showed that the functioning and capacity of the drainage systems in the Três Corações center need to be adapted to the current requests, but in order to reach this goal the cost of intervention will be high because the region is already consolidated.
