Diagnóstico das práticas de impermeabilização do sistema de cobertura em casas de alto padrão em Maceió

Abstract

In the last decades, with the greater rigor in the quality control of the materials and services employed in civil construction, it was noticed that, the sooner the interventions and maintenance were made, less was spent. Thus, the importance was seen of the prevention to extend the building health, either in the aesthetic, functional or structural aspect of it. Then, this paper had the objective of diagnostic the main problems concerning the waterproofing of the rooftop system in Maceió-AL, stressing the importance of the care towards the tightness. For such, it was carried out a wide bibliographical revision about the good practices of waterproofing, with respect to the cost, normative rule, type of systems, construction details and its importance. In sequence, it was carried out a quiz near the technical means composed of designers, builders and applicators. The results showed that: the designers consider the brazilian norms inadequate towards our reality, the builders point the lack labor qualification and the applicators accuse the almost inexistence of the waterproofing project in the service performed. From that, it is concluded that there is a lack of knowledge and application of the Brazilian norms that rule the waterproofing, as well as a negligence by part of the technical means, above all on behalf of the builders, regarding the importance of waterproofing.
