Avaliação das melhorias obtidas por meio da implantação do projeto de alvenaria de vedação

Abstract

The implementation of masonry design provides a rationalizing tool for improving the production process in construction sites. The aim of this research work is to assess and quantify the improvements obtained in the non-structural masonry execution process by the implementation of process design, in a project located in Goiania Metropolitan Area. This study was divided in two different moments: before and after the implementation of the process design, in which the productivity and the consumption of ceramic blocks were monitored. For the assessment of the improvements achieved, data were treated by statistical analysis. As main results, there was a 15% increase in the potential productivity, and the linear regression analysis confirmed the trend of a learning effect after the implementation of the process design. The percentage of walls that had an actual consumption less than or equal to the expected one has changed from 38% to 80% after the implementation of the process design. The main contribution of this paper is related to the method for assessing the impact of the implementation of the masonry process design implementation in productivity and material waste.
