Jogo didático para tornar prático o uso das Atividades que contribuem para a melhoria de processo: elevação da alvenaria estrutural

Abstract

Best practices seek to eliminate factors that create interruptions in processes and that occur at construction sites. The objective of this research was to develop a didactic game that helps managers to make practical the use of best practices in structural masonry construction process, to stimulate flow production continuity and to eliminate wastes. The methodology involves the procedures required to development and validation of proposed tool. For this, the following tasks were carried out: exploratory study, preparation of a best practices list, development, validation and application of a checklist; development of didactic game and its validation by the application in a group dynamics, primarily with professors and scientific initiation students, and later with managers of three of the six construction sites researched. As a result it was found that the neglect of most of these activities could result in the occurrence of making-do and consequently in rework; the managers use best practices in their daily and. the game confirmed the information observed in the field and provided an overview of the process by managers. The conclusion is that the game is a teaching tool that can be used to train professionals in the identification of strengths and weaknesses related to management activities not only in construction process of structural masonry elevation, but also in other processes.
