Vedações verticais em drywall: estudo de caso de uma edificação hoteleira

Abstract

With the advancement of technology, the growth of the civil construction sector comes with innovations at construction sites. These innovations are intended to increase productivity and reduce important factors such as cost and time. The drywall is na innovative system, which emerged in 1916, in the United States, and in Brazil it began in the 1970s. Despite being a widespread method in European territory, it is still founding these spaces in Brazil. The work presents a case study in the city of Maceió/AL, whose objective was to obtain productivity indexes for the execution of drywall, indicate the financial viability of the method and present a cost comparison of the execution of the parts in drywall and conventional masonry. To reach these objectives, data were collected from the work to arrive at costs and productivity, in addition to the use of the Indicator in Reason unitary of production (RUP), which served to make a comparison between the two partitions methods studied. Through the studies carried out, it was observed a greater productivity of drywall in relation to the use of masonry in ceramic blocks, in addition to a lower cost of labor when compared to the two methods. However, there was also a high cost of material for sealing drywall compared to the cost spent on masonry in ceramic blocks. In addition, in the presente work, the analysis of the total cost was higher for drywall.
