DRYWALL: Estudo de caso utilização e técnica em canteiro de obra no município de Mogi Guaçu-SP

Abstract

Drywall's construction process is a recent technology that over time gains space in the civil construction market. This article compares the results obtained from costs of the internal sealing system of ceramic blocks and the drywall system applied to the work, which allowed the survey of parameters that were used to determine the most economical sealing method. The conventional masonry construction method was replaced by the drywall for internal sealing of the administrative office rooms in a construction site at the city of Mogi Guaçu-SP because it is a light, firm, rigid and stable structure as a standard wall of blocks or bricks of masonry. In view of the results obtained, it was found that the advantages of the drywall system are higher in relation to the sealing system with ceramic blocks, corresponding to a useful area gain of 5%, besides providing a more economical total cost, equal to 14.0% in relation to the conventional sealing system.
