“In specific sections, optimized slabs will be used and in other places slurry will be placed. It is important to clarify that these actions are not part of a project but of a service, since we cannot assist in this area because it is included in the water and sewage project of the 107 human settlements,” he said.
The official indicated that cutting, removal, shaping and compaction of the subgrade have been carried out. Subsequently, granular placement and compaction have been carried out to finish with pouring.
