Estudo geofísico e geotécnico em uma área de risco no município de Caçapava do Sul, RS

Abstract

Hazard areas are places where the occurrence of geological, geotechnical and hydraulic phenomena may involve the loss of lives and/or properties damage. These sites are predominantly bottom occupying valleys subject to flooding, or slopes of steep subject to landslides and cave-ins. Thus, this paper aims to conduct a geological and geotechnical study in a hazardous urban area in northeastern of Caçapava do Sul / RS for the prevention of a possible future disaster. The methodological plan will follow the following topics of study: the interpretation of aerial photos of the region; soil analysis, geophysics applied to the slope stability and landslides, geology, in geological analysis of the area and geotechnical analysis of the slope. The expected results for this work are the creation of a geotechnical map and a map of the environmental vulnerability from the studied area. Therefore, establishing a map of fragile areas, and so presenting the technical knowledge to the local government of Caçapava do Sul. Presenting a Social Engineering solution for the hazard areas which are populated.
