LEAN CONSTRUCTION: análise e estratégias de uso

Abstract

This paper addresses the Lean Construction system: analysis and usage strategies. Its approach is justified by the fact that it presents explanations on the use of Lean methodology in civil construction and provides clarification on its use in practice. The aim of this paper is to compare the positive effects presented with the methodology, such procedures will be followed by engineering professionals. This result will be obtained from a comparative case study carried out construction of two similar residential works located in the city of Varginha. The study evidenced the possible failures existing during the construction process resulting in great waste, considering the use of the methodology it was possible to identify and obtain improvements in the construction process reducing the waste.
