PATOLOGIAS GERADAS POR INFILTRAÇÕES EM EDIFICAÇÕES

Abstract

The waterproofing is a step of great importance in buildings, given that moisture causes a lot of harmful diseases, both to construction elements, when the health and well being of its occupants. It is an area often neglected or poorly executed, either execution errors or incorrect choice of waterproofing materials. This study aims to analyze the types of infiltration, their ways of acting on the elements of the building, carry out a survey of the main waterproofing materials, as well as the relevant definitions to NBR 9575/2003 norm concerning the delimitation of the waterproofing project . Based on these data, to evaluate viable solutions for preparation of projects and recovery of structures with problems related to moisture, seeking to ensure durability to buildings and security to its users. As observed in the case studies the most common errors in its implementation or not in work, highlighted the inadequate choice of materials, incorrect execution and lack of an executive project waterproofing.
