Considerações sobre o gerenciamento da construção civil em obras residenciais verticais

The civil construction is an industrial sector of great economic importance and that it comes exponentially growing in the country. However, this activity is deficient in its management processes, and in this context that the management of construction as a way of organizing and controlling all the technical and construction of an enterprise. The literature shows that the manager has a key role throughout the process of planning, execution and analysis of the results of the work being of prime importance that all steps have its due attention in order to avoid any technical problems or lack information. The management’s main objective is the transparency of technical and financial information to investors and their assessments of physical and financial performances of the work intervened positively in quality, deadlines and costs. In this sense, this paper aims to present consideration about the proper management of a residential development in vertical construction

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.

Análise da dicotomia sofrimento e prazer na construção civil

Este estudo caracteriza-se como uma pesquisa exploratória-descritiva que busca analisar em uma empresa do ramo da construção civil a dicotomia sofrimento e prazer presente no canteiro de obras no processo de execução de estrutura de um edifício, cujo problema de pesquisa constitui-se em saber quais os fatores que causam sofrimento e prazer no processo de execução de estrutura em uma empresa de construção civil situada no Vale do Sinos. Os dados foram coletados através de entrevistas semi-estruturadas com quinze operários de obra. Para a análise dos dados coletados, utilizou-se a metodologia da análise de conteúdo, na modalidade de análise temática. Os resultados são apresentados em três conjuntos de categorias: dezoito categorias iniciais, posteriormente reagrupadas em dez categorias intermediárias e, por último, sintetizadas nas categorias finais: prazer gerado pelo trabalho em obra, sofrimento gerado pelo trabalho em obra e o significado do trabalho. Os resultados obtidos mostram por que os operários apreciam o trabalho em obra e as dificuldades enfrentadas por eles no canteiro e que são motivo de medo, angústia e ansiedade. Fica claro a importância da interação do grupo de operários a fim de que seja maximizada a produtividade no canteiro, assim como a necessidade do engenheiro de melhorar seu relacionamento 11 com os operários no canteiro com o intuito de aumentar a motivação do operário e sua conseqüente produtividade.Finalmente, constata-se que, mesmo estando presente um trabalho tipicamente taylorista no canteiro, que não privilegia a atividade de concepção nem o espírito criativo do operário, os operários conseguem obter momentos de prazer em seu trabalho, visto que a interação do grupo de operários na obra faz com que gostem do trabalho no canteiro apesar das dificuldades enfrentadas.

Controle de qualidade em estruturas na construção civil

This work is to control the quality of the structures, procedures for addressing the assembly of the formwork, scaffolding and the frame of pillars, beams and slabs. He had also intended to show that the vibration of launch and concrete items are also important, if poorly implemented can undermine the structure. This work also shows that the mapping becomes essential if there is some problem in the concrete, where concrete was launched, could be identified. And finally check the product where the structure will be evaluated for how much their quality

Ecotécnicas aplicáveis á construção civil no Brasil

This work approaches the main eco-efficient techniques and materials that can be used to ensure the proper functioning of the habitat with the main objective of preserving energy and reducing the ecological impact. The harnessing of energy to run a house using materials in a correct way makes it possible to achieve the goals related to its rational use. So, the more consolidated techniques need to be studied separately to determine the global effect on housing. The results obtained, with the aid of standard NBR15220 ABNT, were a series of ecotécnicas that can be used in 8 relatively homogeneous zones. This study was made to create a public awareness of the current environmental problems that society is facing nowadays and the urgent need to practice responsible use of energy

Will also be presented as is performed physical planning of a real estate work

Benefícios na execução de uma obra sustentável em contrapartida aos métodos tradicionais da construção civil

The civil construction sector in Brazil is, simultaneously, a necessity that drives the economy and an evil that degrades the environment. Simple choices adopted in an enterprise can make big difference in harm caused by constructive practices, minimizing its harmful to the environment and making it sustainable. These choices, however, involve the use of materials and techniques often unknown by the builders, since the construction industry is very traditional. Even worse, the eco-friendly materials and sustainable techniques also face another obstacle to its use: the prejudice. Builders and customers prefer traditional methods to sustain belief that they present lower quality and higher price. This work raises awareness of the urgency with traditional methods must be overridden, showing practical and simple ways for this replacement, as well as confirm the quality equal to or even higher in the use of alternative materials and techniques, without addition in cost. Thus, the benefits are generated for all parties involved, from builders to residents

Gerenciamento de resíduos da construção civil: análise e atualização dos estudos realizados na UNESP-FEG para o município de Guaratinguetá

The construction industry is a large consumer of natural resources and one of the largest generators of residues with significant impacts on the environment. Because of the large production of Construction Industry Residues (RCC), it is essential reliable and updated information about generation, composition and classification sources of these residues, especially for management, recycling and final disposal. RCC represent the most part of solid residues generated in a city. In this way, the management of these residues is an issue that is gaining increasing importance in the Brazilian scenario, since the legal and society requirements to internalize the sustainability in the construction process - since the extraction, use, wastage savings, reutilization until the appropriate discard has been increasing in the last years. The present work objective is updating the quantities produced and collected in Guaratinguetá-SP, based on data collected with the municipal administrative entities that act direct or indirectly in the RCC management, elaborate a detailed bibliographic review, with special attention to the graduate works that were realized in FEG about this theme. With this material, scenarios to a better adequacy of the administrative structure to managements RCC activities, as well as was suggested actions to achieve these scenarios
