Estudo das manifestações patológicas em habitações de interesse social no município de Piranhas – AL com uso da ferramenta GUT: estudo de caso

Abstract

Housing deficit in Brazil is a growing problem that mainly affects the low-income population. In order to reduce this number, the Federal Government has created several housing programs to facilitate access to the home, but high demand, lack of supervision of buildings, unskilled labor, among other reasons, lead to early onset of pathological manifestations. Therefore, this study aims to analyze and quantify the pathological manifestations identified in housing of social interest, thus favoring the preventive and corrective diagnosis of situations observed in the housing of the housing complex located in Piranhas - AL. Through a case study using as methodology the GUT tool (severity, urgency and trend), data were collected and analyzed in na attempt to identify the main manifestations and their possible causes and origins helping, thus in the decision-making by the parties concerned. Whatever the anomaly or fault exists, its occurrence is derived from aspects related to the construction itself and to situations related to the manpower used, its qualification and the natural characteristics of the region. With the data in hand and analyzed in a judicious way with the help of photographic records, it was possible to create a quantitative survey and to expose an intervention prioritization order in view of the anomalies found in the houses studied, in addition to comparing with other case studies in the country’s housing estates. Thus, it was possible to identify that the most recurrent manifestations in the sample studied were the disaggregation of painting, present in 82.21% in the internal area of the residences visited, followed by humidity spots with 68.96% in the external area of the residences, the abrasion of the eyes and finally the cracks, with a lower incidence. Therefore, considering that the residences are already inhabited and the residents are characterized as low-income, the problematic and logistics in performing repairs is even greater, requiring, most of the time, a financial effort incompatible with reality.
