Dividiu-se o estudo nas etapas de levantamento de informações do sistema de abastecimento, de pesquisa de campo e de tratamento dos dados, em função da dimensão socioeconômica do consumidor, impressões sobre os serviços da concessionária, formas de uso, sentimento econômico e avaliação das inter-relações entre as variáveis estudadas. Constata que o Residencial é um conjunto habitacional horizontal unifamiliar. Demonstra através de análise dos fatores relacionados a desperdícios e vazamentos de água, que são consideráveis as chances dos hidrômetros residenciais estarem defeituosos. Afere o serviço prestado pela COSANPA como de má qualidade em função do entendimento de que a água fornecida é de má qualidade. Juga-se o preço da água da COSANPA em função da qualidade da água fornecida, aferindo-a como de custo elevado. Detectou-se grande chance de comprometimento ambiental do lençol freático e do solo, assim como de se adquirir doenças transmissíveis pela água, através da rede de distribuição, a quando de ocorrência de falta d’água. Avalia que entre as fragilidades da gestão da Companhia de Saneamento, destaca-se a deficiente comunicação da empresa com os seus usuários e como principal potencialidade detectada na gestão do sistema de abastecimento, se sobressai à rara ocorrência de falta d’água e o fato de haver um significativo índice de hidrometração. Constata que “ouvir” o usuário é uma importante ferramenta de auxilio ao aperfeiçoamento a gestão dos serviços de abastecimento de água.

Adequação estrutural dos pilares de um edifício residencial em concreto armado na cidade de Rio Branco

A recuperação e reforço de estruturas de concreto armado estão cada vez mais frequentes no Brasil, devido, principalmente, ao envelhecimento das estruturas construídas nas décadas de 60 e 70 do século XX, as quais estão prestes a atingir seu tempo de vida útil. Somam-se a isto, fatores como o uso de concretos com baixa resistência, falhas de execução, além do uso inadequado e da falta de manutenção. Devido a esses fatores que a sociedade deve se preocupar em reforçar e/ou recuperar essas construções, evitando assim, demolições das mesmas e até mesmo evitar acidentes fatais. Este trabalho apresenta um estudo de caso, que visa a recuperação de um edifício, que se encontra abandonado há cerca de duas décadas na cidade de Rio Branco, Estado do Acre. Atualmente, existem várias técnicas de reforço de estrutura de concreto armado. Tais como: reforço por meio de encamisamento de concreto armado, complementação ou reforço com adição de armadura, reforço com aplicação de chapas e perfis metálicos, reforço de pilares com polímeros reforçados com fibra de carbono (PRFC), dentre outras. Neste trabalho, o método adotado para a recuperação foi o reforço por meio de encamisamento de concreto armado. E para uma melhor compreensão da metodologia adotada o trabalho apresenta também detalhes da configuração do reforço adotado, detalhe construtivo e procedimentos executivos do método adotado. Além, das envoltórias mostrando os esforços atuantes e resistentes do antes e depois do reforço.

Análise de desempenho de lâmpadas LEDs e LFCs como alternativas em iluminação residencial em função da implementação da portaria ministerial n° 1007 que limita o uso de lâmpadas incandescentes no Brasil

With the imposition of the suspension of production and subsequent banning of incandescent light bulbs will be necessary to replace it by other more energy-efficient. Although the main alternative is the compact fluorescent lamp, the environmental impact caused by it due to incorrect disposal and the amount of harmonics included in the network resulting in losses related to the quality of electric power system makes them sought new alternatives for lighting systems that are efficient and have low environmental impact. In this context, the LED (Lighting Emitting Diode), based on solid-state components, is presented as an option for new projects and replacement of existing lighting. In this work we studied aspects of energy, environmental and economic impacts of a possible replacement of conventional lighting systems for new technology. From laboratory tests and surveys of the costs of different types of lamps used for residential lighting, we performed a comparative analysis considering energy and economic aspects which showed that the LED technology, but has a high initial investment, it is best when power quality and environmental preservation are relevant factors in decision making for the choice of technology to be used in the lighting system

Análise comparativa entre Brasil e Alemanha sobre autoprodução de energia elétrica residencial

The energy crisis has affected many countries. With the growing warning with the emission in the atmosphere and the lack of resources, the seek for sustainable sources for energy genaration have become even bigger. Some Countries, as Germany, started first in this journey, creating an incentive program to self-generation with renewable sources (wind, photovoltaics, biomass, etc.), giving priority for smaller plants. In Germany the program called EEG started in 2004. In Brazil, since the beggining of 2012, the self-generators did not know how they could be beneficted for self-generation, and self-generation didn't become commun in the country. However, with NR 482, of April 17th, 2012, the parameters were defined, and the self-generator could have a guideline. Therewith, studyies can be redirected for a better knowlegde of the conditions the self-generator will be sujected, in addition to Germany's case as reference to compare with Brazil's case. In this paper these studies are made, focused in wind power (wind turbines) and photovoltaic panels
