Análise comparativa entre os métodos construtivos em EPS e alvenaria convencional

Abstract

One of the main problems in current civil construction is the fact that there is a monopolization of construction methods that ends up dominating the entire sector, in particular the conventional masonry method with a sealing and structural function. Within this scenario, several alternatives emerge to face this situation, presenting the most diverse differentials. The work aims to verify the real viability of one of these alternative construction methods, the use of expanded polystyrene panels, based on criteria presented in NBR 15575, in addition to cost and execution time. With the literature review, the corresponding values for each parameter were obtained and, with the help of the AHP, the hierarchy of such criteria was obtained in order to establish a constructive method that would stand out against the other. The main answer obtained is that, for the parameters evaluated and the weights established, both constructive methods proved to be good choices against the scenarios presented.
