Recuperação de elementos estruturais de um edifício residencial multifamiliar na cidade de Viçosa - MG : um estudo de caso

Abstract

This study deals with the restoration of structural elements in the garage of a multi family residential building in Viçosa, MG. Due to the lack of waterproofing in the wet areas (bathrooms) of the units above ground, pillars, beams and slabs were affected by water infiltration, causing pathological manifestations such as corrosion and crumbling of the concrete. The work describes the methodology for diagnosing, assessing and restoring these structures, highlighting the importance of suitable materials and specific techniques to protect against the weather and external actions. The research includes visual inspections, photographic documentation of the pathologies and details of the restoration processes carried out, highlighting the need for ongoing maintenance to ensure the durability and safety of the buildings.
