Jogo de empresas para administração e controle de custos: um modelo para empresas fornecedoras de componentes para a construção civil

Este trabalho apresenta um modelo de jogo de empresas visando atender a gestores de empresas fornecedoras de componentes para a construção civil, caracterizadas pela onisciência dos mesmos, com dificuldades em compreender e utilizar as informações econômico-financeiras presentes nos relatórios, bem como promover o estreitamento teórico e prático dessas informações à comunidade acadêmica de Engenharia. Para o desenvolvimento do jogo de empresas fez-se necessário, além do reconhecimento de algumas empresas fornecedoras de componentes para a construção civil, um estudo de conceitos e técnicas contábeis, no que tange à Contabilidade de Custos e Gerencial. O jogo foi aplicado no ambiente acadêmico da Universidade Federal do Pará, junto a alunos de Engenharia Civil, que para tanto, tiveram que passar por um processo de nivelamento conceitual e de conhecimento da dinâmica do jogo, e em uma microempresa, Proativa, na cidade de Belém. Os resultados confirmaram as vantagens do uso da simulação empresarial abordada neste trabalho no processo ensino-aprendizagem.

Estudo de parâmetros físicoquímicos para a produção de argamassas utilizando resíduos industriais e da construção civil

As argamassas podem ser consideradas como a mistura de aglomerantes e agregados com água, possuindo capacidade de endurecimento e aderência. Como alternativa, é proposto produção de argamassas utilizando como agregado miúdo resíduos de construção civil (RCC), rico em silicoaluminatos, gerado nas obras de demolições e reformas, e cinza volante (CV) como material pozolânico, obtida a partir da combustão do carvão mineral em caldeiras de leitos fluidizados, em substituição parcial ao cimento Portland. Neste contexto, o resíduo de construção civil foi beneficiado e caracterizado pelas análises de espectrofotometria de raios- X e difração de raios-X, a cinza volante foi caracterizada pela análise granulométrica e espectrofotometria de raios-X. Para produção das argamassas formularam-se composições de RCC nas proporções de 95, 90, 85, 80, 75 e 70%; CV de 0, 5, 10, 15, 20 e 25% e 5% de cimento Portland CP II Z 32, sendo que em cada composição do traço de argamassa foi adicionado 0,8% em volume de água e para o ensaio reológico utilizou-se as mesmas proporções de resíduos (RCC e CV) com 35% em volume de água. Após a cura de 28 dias os corpos de prova foram submetidos a ensaios físicos de absorção, porosidade e massa específica aparente; ensaio mecânico de resistência à compressão e análise de difração de raios-X e microscopia eletrônica de varredura, cujos resultados obtidos mostraram-se ser viável a utilização da cinza volante e RCC na construção civil, na produção de argamassas.

Impacto da ABNT NBR 15575 na qualidade da construção civil

The quality in construction is increasingly a concern in this sector, in view of the occurrence of problems in civil works, even when a contractor is certified by ISO 9001. The ISO 9001 certification does not ensure the maintenance of quality because it only establishes the requirements for a quality management system (QMS) to ensure standardization of processes and products. With the development of ISO 15575, standard performance, the builders took on a quality parameter with the requirements established by this Standard, which must be met. Thus, the implementation of a quality management system (QMS) becomes essential, showing users the concern for quality. This study aimed to verify, through a case study, the impact of NBR 15575 quality construction and how that standard of performance may be the key element of ISO 9001 to ensure quality maintenance of civil works

Atualização do conceito de qualidade na construção civil

The quality control is of great importance for the development of any organization, mainly for providing an assurance of delivering high quality services and goods for the consumers. Quality can be defined by the word „change‟, for the company which intends to implement a quality control system must be open to changes. This can be noticed from the JURAN concept (1992 In SILVEIRA ET AL., 2002): “Quality is to fit for usage”, i.e., depending on the goal, the situation and the consumer, quality is seen in different ways, since each one has different wishes and opinions. Taking in to account the availability of means such as norms, theories and tools, that contribute for an efficient quality management system, this discrepancy of opinions and the lack of objectivity of this concept can be solved, since through the analyzes of these means one can set quality standards, i.e., market references which fulfill both consumers and builders demands. Thus, the quality concept ceases to be something so abstract, non-measurable, to become a more objective concept. Finally, the goal of this work is to analyze the quality concept through bibliographic studies and possible consumers‟ enquires, aiming at the building industry, and show how the quality, often taken as something abstract, can be a measurable and objective concept, that benefits both the consumer as well as the enterprise of this branch

Gestão da qualidade na construção civil

Quality Management has become an essential requirement for all companies intending to compete and ensure its place in the labor market. Several tools have been created as a way of ensuring the effectiveness of quality management, in order to control and manage the quality of services and products to ensure a final product with a high degree of competition and quality, besides satisfaction and exceeding customer expectations. Due to the great importance it has at the presente time on the world stage and internationally, civil construction felt the need to eliminate the defects and the lack of quality that have become so common over time to ensure a quality product and it´s customers satisfaction. It was then that this industry began to implement and develop more modern techniques and tools for quality control in construction. Quality achieved position in global market, defining which companies would continue and which companies would leave it, not to mention it became insistently required by the customer. Some tools such as ISO 9000 guided companies seeking a quality management. This presentation will present some of these management tools and their applicability in the civil construction industry. Thus, it will be evident that despite the current resources it is necessary that civil construction professionals abandon the idea that considers quality management a problem and begin thinking about it as a solution to prevent future errors and ensure the quality of their services
