Inspeção predial: estudo de caso do edifício Giardino Di Capri

Abstract

The omission regarding the necessary attention to the maintenance of buildings can be seen in cases of buildings taken out of service long before fulfilling their projected useful life. In addition to that in the last decade in Brazil it is possible to exemplify cases in which the lack of maintenance and/or lack of verification of failures and anomalies in the structures caused disasters with deaths and large material losses. Therefore, the explanation of the prevalence of buildings is evident, since it aims to identify such flaws and recommend as appropriate corrections and maintenance, as addressed in NBR 16747. The objective of this work was to carry out a case study of the Giardino di Capri Building, located in the district of Patriolino Ribeiro in the City of Fortaleza in the State of Ceará. In this way, all appropriate systems were carried out, the use and maintenance of the building was verified, classified as failures and anomalies, as well as a table of recommendations for necessary actions, duly prioritized according to the urgency levels, to restore or preserve the performance of the systems, always in accordance with a specific standard mentioned above. Several anomalies and failures were found, most of which were related to infiltrations and construction systems maintenance inefficiency.
