Análise evolutiva

Abstract

In the city of São Paulo (SP), civil construction of multiple floors residential buildings intensified in the 1930s, with reinforced concrete structure and masonry walls. This constructive process remains in majority of São Paulo’s buildings, occurring, however, changes along time and improvements in constructive and design aspects. In this paper, a building constructed in 1973 was selected as a study object. This choice was motivated by its construction have occurred in a prior period to the new standards and building codes elaborated after the tragedies of fire in Andraus and Joelma’s buildings, in 1972 and 1974, respectively. From the evolutionary analysis, is conclusive that new techniques came up to promote the industrialization of artisanal process, to guarantee the maintainability of subsystems, to insert the sustainability factor, to increase safety and to apply or create new equipment, tools and materials developed between the decades of 1980 and 2010, in construction of residential buildings.
