2. Description of the SLM Technology
2.1 Short description of the Technology
Definition of the Technology:
Defensivos flexibles y rústicos, se emplean para proteger terrenos de cultivo frente a amenazas de riadas y erosión lateral. Esta conformada de rocas de gran diámetro con altura y espesor variable que puede ser complementada con plantación de árboles.
Su resistencia y flexibilidad permite que no se deforme fácilmente ante fuertes eventos de crecidas de agua.
2.2 Detailed description of the Technology
Description:
Esta tecnología es muy tradicional en la zona y se la ha recuperado de la experiencia de los comunarios. La tecnología puede, preferentemente, aplicarse en entornos naturales con amenazas de inundaciones dinámicas y en los márgenes de ríos. Son defensivos flexibles y rústicos que se emplean para proteger terrenos de cultivos. Esta conformado de rocas de altura y espesor variable, negus requerimiento. Se aplican paralelos al cauce del río y al pie de terreno a protegerse. Entre los insumos a usar son: piedras de gran tamaño, retroexcavadora para movimientos de tierra para la nivelación y fundación, picos, palas, barrenas y palancas; volquetes para traslado de la piedra.
Vida útil de 10 años del defensivo, disminución de costos de rehabilitación, disminución de costos de afectación por inundaciones a viviendas y terrenos de cultivo.Su tecnología es apropiada y de bajo costo usando materiales locales y costos bajos de operación y mantenimiento.
