Diagnóstico de canteiros de obras na cidade de Cuiabá no período 2008-2012

Abstract

The construction industry is one of the largest generators of waste in Brazil. A way to reduce the generation of debris and still maintain high productivity is to attend the organization of the construction site. A well-planned construction site always aims the economy shifts, correct storage of inputs, proper waste disposal, following safety standards. You can measure the performance of a construction site through analysis of the layout, especially photographic surveys and checklists for basic items that should be present in your layout conception. This paper used 40 diagnoses of different construction sites, in the period 2008-2012, prepared by the students of Civil Engineering, of the Federal University of Mato Grosso, during the course of Construction, taught by Prof. Dr. Douglas Brandão Queiroz, to evaluate the functionality of the construction sites in the city of Cuiabá. Of those 40 diagnoses availables, 35 were utilized in this research. It was paid attention to the general characteristics of each diagnose as: part of construction work at the evaluation of the construction site, construction purpose and land area of the building and also to the checklists. These features provide parameters for obtaining the results, using from the notes provided by a standard checklist that allowed the comparison of diagnoses with different characteristics. It was observed from this that the construction sites in Cuiabá have difficulty in planning the system of storage and materials handling . The overall performance of the diagnoses studied was considered good, but there is some neglect of logistics, that if well used, provide the construction site with high production combined with a minimum production of rubble.
