Construção Offsite: um estudo sobre o método construtivo modular

Abstract

The competitiveness of civil construction has imposed on companies in the construction sector the constant need to adapt to an environment of quality improvement in the production of buildings. The industrialization of construction processes is an important tool for obtaining improvements in the quality of products and construction processes, as well as greater flexibility in the execution of buildings. This work presents, through a bibliographical survey in academic databases, the state of the art of Offsite modular construction, regarding its processes and technologies used in civil construction, bringing the particularities of the process, its benefits and challenges. From the published studies, the relevance of technological evolution in construction processes was evident, and particularly for offsite construction, showed that this model allows to minimize many particularities that are involved in the conventional construction process, due to the technical control of the process, the minimization of losses and assertiveness in the deadline for delivery of the work, but which, however, requires specific feasibility and logistics studies, in addition to the difficulty of prejudice regarding the construction process.
