Construção modular: conceitos projetuais e diversidade, um meio produtivo para racionalização na construção

Abstract

Modular construction is broad and dynamic, with the method it is possible to obtain different types of architectural projects that provide better performance within the construction. The main idea of modular construction is seen as a process in which modules are properly produced in a physical space and taken to the final destination, where the necessary assembly and repairs are carried out, but in fact, the concepts about modularization go further. The present work proposes a conceptual and technical approach to the different possibilities and paths to produce projects that aim to use modularization, since we are currently living in an era in which it is essential to propose building methods that bring more performance to the process. executive within construction sites, mainly in contributing to the environment in terms of sustainable practice. Modularization brings many advantages in terms of productivity and ergonomics, in addition to great potential in terms of creativity. The objective of this work is to clarify the efficiency of modularization and its main characteristics, aiming to contextualize all attributes for design and construction. The research approach was based on bibliographical references through exploratory means, placing emphasis on the main methodologies of modularization, and then concluding that modular construction is a broad means with many benefits, with potential that combines materials, construction systems, techniques, technology, in favor of rationalization in construction.
