Dimensionamento de um edifício de seis pavimentos em alvenaria estrutural de blocos cerâmicos

Abstract

The growth of the competitiveness of the construction market generated a need to find for alternative construction systems that could combine economy, time and technical quality, and the structural masonry presents itself as a good solution to this problem. This work presents the project and dimensioning of a six-pavement residential building in structural masonry of ceramic blocks. The dimensioning was done using spreadsheets developed following the specifications of NBR 15812-1: 2010: Structural Masonry - Ceramic Blocks Part 1: Project. The main concepts and procedures performed for the building project are presented, as well as the results obtained. For the work, an existing architectural project was used as the basis for the beginning of the project and dimensioning. With this, the modulations were defined and the plants of first and second rows were developed, and from that, the steps of the dimensioning and structural analysis of the building began. Finally, the views and details of the walls of the building were made. After the calculations were made, it was verified the necessity of the use of reinforcement with structural function, with that the work`s hypothesis, that it was possible to execute the construction of six-pavement without the use of reinforcement, proved to be flawed, mainly due to the arrangement of the walls and frames of the architectural project employed (sic).
