18773543<p>Coleccion de articulos publicados por la voz de cuba sobre la cuestion de vento primera edicion habanaimprenta de rosendo espina 1877 caratulas originaleslibro originalestado regularla voz de cuba fue un periodico cubano del siglo XIX en este libro se publican articulos del ingeniero cubano francisco de albearcon respecto a la construccion del acueducto de vento en la habanaAsí a solicitud del capitán general de la Isla el coronel de ingenieros >Francisco de Albear y Fernández de Lara presentó en 1855 una "Memoria acerca del Proyecto de conducción a La Habana de las aguas de los manantiales de Vento" que proyectaba un sistema de acueducto de mampostería cerrado que conduciría por gravedad las aguas de dichos manantiales hasta su destino final a una distancia de once kilómetros. En la Memoria Albear realizó un estudio de los antecedentes y las posibilidades de aprovechamiento de los acueductos anteriores efectuó un cálculo de la dotación de agua para la ciudad valoró las dificultades para lograr la obra de captación en Vento y propuso el trazado del canal hasta el depósito.</p><p>Atendiendo a la extraordinaria complejidad de la obra y a las dificultades de su ejecución en el convulso período de la >Guerra de los diez años Albear elaboró y presentó en 1876 dos nuevos documentos: la "Memoria del Proyecto de depósito de recepción y de distribución de las obras del Canal de Vento" y la "Memoria del Proyecto de la distribución del agua de Vento en La Habana". En la primera valoraba los aspectos relativos a la ubicación altura capacidad y dimensiones del depósito así como otros aspectos tecnológicos; mientras que en la segunda se argumentaban las condiciones requeridas para un buen sistema de distribución dividido en dos partes interior y exterior así como las particularidades y aportes de cada una de ellas.</p>La inauguración del Acueducto de Albear denominado finalmente así tras la muerte de su artífice el 22 de octubre de 1887 no ocurriría hasta seis años más tarde el 23 de enero de 1893 en medio de condiciones políticas y económicas sumamente adversas plagadas de dificultades no sólo topográficas y tecnológicas sino incluso higiénicas en momentos en que las llamadas "fiebres de Vento" diezmaban a sus constructores. La etapa final de las obras a cargo de la firma Runkle Smith and Co. de Nueva York y encabezada por el ingeniero Sherman Gould por la parte norteamericana fue dirigida de acuerdo con los proyectos originales por un discípulo y continuador de Albear el coronel de ingenieros >Joaquín Ruiz. No obstante su artífice llegó a tener en vida la satisfacción de ver su proyecto premiado con Medalla de Oro en la Exposición Universal de >París de 1878 donde se la consideró como una obra maestra de la ingeniería del siglo XIX.
