Subsídios para o diagnóstico de patologias em uma edificação pública: estudo de caso no CMEI Madre Paulina

Abstract

Despite advancements in civil construction, execution flaws, design errors, and a lack of preventive maintenance are still frequent factors that contribute to the emergence of pathological manifestations in buildings. In this context, it becomes essential to evaluate the construction conditions, especially in public buildings, which must provide safety, durability, and comfort to users. Through inspections carried out at the Madre Paulina Early Childhood Education Center (CMEI) in Pato Branco – PR, it was possible to identify existing pathological manifestations, analyze their causes, and classify them using the GUT Matrix, creating a ranking for prioritizing interventions that contributes to the planning and decision-making of public administration. Eight main pathological manifestations were identified, totaling eighteen occurrences with different causes and intensities. Among them, problems with humidity, cracks, deterioration of materials, execution flaws, and lack of preventive maintenance stand out. The most critical pathologies are concentrated in the gaps in the parapet, cracks in the wall, and peeling paint from the pillars. The study reinforces the importance of preventive maintenance and technical monitoring to ensure the safety and durability of the building.
