Análise da ferramenta LEED para a certificação de edifícios sustentáveis no Brasil

CCurrently there are various systems for the evaluation of environmental impacts of buildings, known as tools of environmental certification. Among these, the tool LEED for New Construction and Major Renovations has been the most widely used and accepted worldwide, in assessing the sustainability of buildings. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the tool for LEED certification for construction work in Brazil, which ranks fourth in the world ranking records certification of sustainable buildings. It was found in this analysis that the assumptions of this tool are encouraging the use of more sustainable and less impactful on the environment as it promotes the deployment of innovative projects from a technological standpoint, , as well as the valuation of enterprises certified. Also, very significant results obtained in terms of energy efficiency and environmental quality in occupied buildings

Análise comparativa do mercado imobiliário em Cidades Médias: a oferta de apartamentos, casas e terrenos urbanos em Campina Grande – PB, Mossoró – RN e Passo Fundo – RS

This presente monograph propose the analysis and discussion of the production of urban space and the processes of their structuring intraurbana from the dynamics of the real estate market into three Medium-sized Cities, Campina Grande - PB, Mossoró - RN and Passo Fundo - RS, whereas the various agents producing this space, in a comparative perspective. From this urban dynamic search to analyze the processes and relations present in these spaces, which are important for its production. From the compilation of real estate advertisements in local newspapers, are analyzed offerings of urban land, houses and apartments in each one of these cities by highlighting their locations and differentiated prices. Thus, working with data from real estate ads from the period 1995 - 2010 and a comparative perspective of the characteristics of real estate markets of three medium-sized cities, it tried to apprehend processes that are common between them and other individuals, to each one. Therefore the comparative analysis developed in this monograph sought to verify whether there are similarities between the cities in relation to the trends of concentration/spatial dispersion of bids and movements throughout time, in addition to a further intensification of the activities of real estate agents in face of such trends and offerings. In addition, we sought to remove a set of problematization that allow them to understand with more acute, in this set of medium cities of Brazilian urban network, processes of change that is already being discussed in the recent period by ReCiMe.

Avaliação do potencial de microgeração em despacho econômico para atendimento aos requisitos de etiquetagem de edifícios

The discussions about the energy rationalization are gaining more and more space on the everyday of engineers and other professionals in the field of energy. A greater focus is being tied to commercial buildings, because they are one of the biggest responsible for the high energetic expenditure according to the National Energetic Balance, especially by the use of air conditioners for the people’s thermal comfort. Such finding made INMETRO to develop a building labeling procedure through th National Program of Electric Energy Conservation in Buildings; by means of this systematic, the built areas are classified by levels that go from A(the best) to E(the worst), taking into account envelopment, illumination system and air conditioning. A bonus process based on water rationalization, use of renewable energy sources, cogeneration systems or technical innovations, allows the classification to be changed up to one level. A study made exactly on a commercial building, the building of Foundation for Technological and Scientific Development located inside of the College of Engineering of Guaratinguetá, sought to identify technical/economic alternatives for the building certification and appealed to the bonus based on water rationalization. The present study is based on analysis of deploying a cogeneration system formed by internal combustion engine and an absorption refrigeration system as bonus alternative, so that the costs are analyzed regarding energy consumption and use of the motor. With the calculations and results, the viability of the building to receive a bonus from INMETRO through its National Program for Energy Conservation in Buildings is studied and concluded from this study whether or not you can get a better level of energy efficiency for the building in question...

Selo PROCEL edifica - edifícios comerciais, de serviços e públicos

This paper presents a study on the labeling Procel Build, an action plan for energy efficiency in buildings which aims to build the foundations necessary to rationalize energy consumption in buildings in Brazil (PROCEL, 2009a, p. 5), ie Procel builds aims to ensure the construction of the building that has a low energy expenditure, but still provide a comfortable environment. In this research, it is also shown how the labels are obtained, which may be general or partial. The reader will find further explanation of the three aspects of a building, and they Envelopment, Lighting system and Air Conditioning System Finally, we present the advantages and challenges of system builds procel, showing the need for greater investment and disclosure of elements that contribute to the implementation of sustainable buildings in Brazil

Refinamento geométrico de contornos e cumeeiras de telhados de edifícios extraídos de dados laser com uso de imagem aérea

In this paper, a method is proposed to refine the LASER 3D roofs geometrically by using a high-resolution aerial image and Markov Random Field (MRF) models. In order to do so, a MRF description for grouping straight lines is developed, assuming that each projected side contour and ridge is topologically correct and that it is only necessary to improve its accuracy. Although the combination of laser data with data from image is most justified for refining roof contour, the structure of ridges can give greater robustness in the topological description of the roof structure. The MRF model is formulated based on relationships (length, proximity, and orientation) between the straight lines extracted from the image and projected polygon and also on retangularity and corner injunctions. The energy function associated with MRF is minimized by the genetic algorithm optimization method, resulting in the grouping of straight lines for each roof object. Finally, each grouping of straight lines is topologically reconstructed based on the topology of the corresponding LASER scanning polygon projected onto the image-space. The results obtained were satisfactory. This method was able to provide polygons roof refined buildings in which most of its contour sides and ridges were geometrically improved.

Dimensionamento sísmico de edifícios baixos em alvenaria confinada

O facto de se ignorar a contribuição da resistência às forças laterais que solicitam as paredes de alvenaria das estruturas em zonas sísmicas é um tema que tem dado muito de que falar na engenharia estrutural. Em Portugal os projetistas preferem as soluções em betão armado pela sua ampla aplicação e bons resultados ao longo dos tempos. Perante o exposto anteriormente e com o objetivo de abrir possibilidades a novas alternativas que permitam de igual forma bons comportamentos estruturais, pensando na construção económica e com segurança, apresenta-se este estudo que propõe a aplicação de alvenaria confinada em zonas sísmicas de Portugal. A presente dissertação está composta por seis capítulos. No capítulo I apresenta-se uma introdução ao problema que permita ao leitor o enquadramento no tema, indicando de igual forma os objetivos específicos que foram precisos cumprir para chegar ao objetivo geral pretendido, isto é, a proposta duma metodologia de conceção de estruturas de habitação usando alvenaria confinada em zonas de risco sísmico em Portugal, delimitadas para edificações de 1 a 2 andares. Os requisitos gerais de ligação considerados baseiam-se no documento “SEISMIC DESIGN GUIDE FOR LOW-RISE CONFINED MASONRY BUILDINGS” os quais foram complementados com dados recomendados pelos EC 6 e EC 8 baseados na norma portuguesa. No capítulo II mostram-se antecedentes de estudos nacionais e internacionais da alvenaria confinada, assim mesmo encontram-se as bases teóricas com definições e requerimentos importantes a serem considerados no momento da conceção do projeto, ainda nesta seção indicam-se os passos para a aplicação do método de cálculo de esforços resistentes das paredes de alvenaria confinada (Método Simplificado), tal método foi aplicado e validado em modelos de elementos finitos desenhados com materiais e características sísmicas de comum aplicação em Portugal como se apresenta no capítulo III. No capítulo IV analisam-se os resultados obtidos, levando a que no capítulo V se descreva uma proposta de aplicação de alvenaria confinada em zonas de baixa sismicidade e alta sismicidade em Portugal. Finalmente no capítulo VI os resultados obtidos levam a concluir que em zonas de baixa sismicidade o dimensionamento de densidade de paredes é dependente das cargas gravíticas para edifícios de 1 e 2 níveis. No caso de zonas de alta sismicidade são as forças sísmicas as condicionantes. Ainda para edifícios de 2 níveis nestas zonas,a espessura mínima das paredes é de 0,20 m.
