Análise do sistema de drenagem de águas pluviais no campus da UFMT em Barra do Garças – MT

Abstract

The urbanization process occurred predominantly in an unplanned way, resulting in impacts to the environment and the population. With the growth of urbanized areas, there was an increase in land occupation and, consequently, in the waterproofing rate, increasing surface runoff, making rainwater drainage systems necessary. It is clear that the implementation of drainage systems did not follow the urbanization process, leading to the occurrence of floods and flooding in the urban environment, which are commonly observed in several places, as well as in the municipality of Barra do Garças. Therefore, this work aims to analyze the rainwater drainage system on the campus of the Federal University of Mato Grosso in Barra do Garças. For this purpose, the characterization of building drainage and micro-drainage devices was carried out, in order to assess the efficiency of the adopted system and identify the causes of drainage problems. Also counting on the quantitative analysis of the devices that make up the microdrainage network (guides, gutters, manholes and manholes). The data collected made it possible to verify the system in accordance with the criteria recommended by the consulted bibliographies and current standards. The survey carried out served as the basis for the resizing of the microdrainage system, which took into account hydraulic parameters and principles aimed at the comfort and safety of users. It was found that the rainwater drainage system has points that need maintenance, in addition to a lack of devices suitable for the flow demand of the study area, making it prone to failures in the capture and management of precipitated water.
