Impact of the absence of compatibility of projects in the execution of residential construction

Abstract

For the execution of a residential project, it is necessary first the project development stage, designing each discipline sequentially or in parallel. The interaction of more than one professional in the elaboration of a project is the right way for a good elaboration, however, the centralization of data allows better management of the information, mitigating incompatibility problems, which reflect in the sequential separation of the projects, since compatibilization provides a holistic view of the process. The purpose of this article is to analyze execution errors in the construction of a residential building in reinforced concrete structures with precast concrete slabs and masonry fencing, due to the incompatibility between projects. For the development of the research, monitoring of the construction phases was developed through regular technical visits and photographic recording. Being a small work, the projects were carried out independently and without prior study of the construction stages, which favored the non-conformities in this case study. Execution errors were found to be caused by incompatibility between architectural, structural, electrical and hydraulic projects that had a negative impact during the execution of the project. In this way, the importance of compatibility between projects is emphasized, regardless of the size of the construction.
