Forma urbana e o uso cotidiano : 65 anos do loteamento Tabapuã (Piabas) no bairro Jacintinho, Maceió – AL

Abstract

Since 1930, the Brazilian population has increased considerably due to the industrialization process, ceasing to be rural and becoming predominantly urban between 1970 and 1980, when, in fact, more than half of the population began to live in metropolises. This change, caused by the rural exodus, caused major changes in the way people use space, as their needs became different and new demands emerged. Maceió, capital of Alagoas, like other Brazilian cities, suffered a process of accelerated occupation in urban areas in 1970. This fact directly affected the division of land, expanding the urban perimeter and creating peripheral areas, which, in addition to being outside or on the margins of the central city, they present infrastructure problems, lack of public equipment, land irregularities and lack of basic services for the population, creating areas prone to low urban vitality. Therefore, this Final Undergraduate Thesis has the general objective of understanding urban form and the daily use of public open spaces. The analysis of the morphological reproduction of the Tabapuã subdivision, Conjunto das Piabas, located in the city of Maceió-Alagoas, aims to understand the appropriation of the inhabited space and which urban guidelines could be taken in favor of the population's enjoyment of these spaces. This general objective was divided into three specific objectives, the first consisted of understanding the conceptualization of the terms urban morphology, urban form, morphological elements and space-producing agents and relating them to the subdivision of urban land in the city of Maceió and the Jacintinho neighborhood, through bibliographic review. The second specific objective included characterizing the overlap between space and society in the reproduction of the urban fabric of the Tabapuã subdivision through physical-territorial and socioeconomic conditions. For this, the methodology listed by José Lamas (1993) was used to identify morphological elements, through surveying, mapping and crossing socioeconomic, urban and environmental data. The final product, in fulfillment of the third specific objective, consisted of building urban intervention guidelines for the implementation of free urban areas for public use that stimulate vitality in consolidated and dense housing complexes. With this, it is intended that equality and the right to enjoy these spaces is something accessible to everyone, whether they live in peripheral regions or not.
