Habitação popular, análise de funcionalidade, acessibilidade e pós ocupação: estudo de caso

Abstract

Architecture, as a primordial art to civil construction, has as main pillar idealize structurally stable and functionally accessible environments for all. During human history, it has always been natural for human beings seek spaces to inhabit, this need later culminated in several governmental attempts to stop the advancement of the housing deficit in the country, with buildings of dubious quality, designed for a single family profile, without considering the real needs of future inhabitants of the space. The present case study has a objective to evaluate the degree of satisfaction of the end users of these constructions, in requirements pertinent to the accessibility standard and the performance standard, which although essential in content, are still largely neglected by designers and unknown by ordinary citizens. . Data collection was carried out in two stages. The first stage consisted of field visits and application of a questionnaire to residents of adapted housing units built through the “Minha Casa Minha Vida” Program. The second stage comprised the application of a questionnaire to professionals, where it was intended to list the level of knowledge of Engineers and Architects in relation to the content and applicability of the standards in the current civil construction market. The results indicate that the adapted units partially follow the parameters indicated by the standards, however, such deficiencies do not affect the user’s perception of comfort. Therefore, the result of the application of the questionnaire to professionals, indicates that a large percentage considers the relevant standards, however, does not fully apply its content when designing.
