Resumo
Este trabalho apresenta uma análise detalhada do processo de construção modular tridimensional aplicado em um empreendimento residencial multifamiliar localizado em Florianópolis/SC, buscando compreender como se articulam, na prática, as etapas de produção em fábrica, logística de transporte e execução em canteiro. O objetivo central consiste em caracterizar o percurso completo dos módulos 3D, desde sua fabricação até sua instalação final na obra, identificando práticas executivas, potencialidades e dificuldades percebidas pelos profissionais envolvidos. A pesquisa adota abordagem qualitativa, de natureza exploratório-descritiva, fundamentada em observações diretas realizadas na fábrica e no canteiro, análise de documentos técnicos e entrevistas com equipes das três frentes do processo — produção fabril, transporte e execução no canteiro. Inicialmente, o estudo descreve a organização da fábrica, a sequência produtiva dos subsistemas estruturais, os procedimentos de execução e inspeção empregados pela empresa responsável pelos módulos. Em seguida, são analisadas as etapas logísticas, incluindo o transporte de longa distância, o armazenamento intermediário e as operações de içamento e posicionamento dos módulos no canteiro. Na etapa executiva, são detalhados o recebimento das unidades, o alinhamento e fixação sobre a fundação, as conexões estruturais e de instalações, bem como os processos de fechamento e finalização. Constatou-se que, segundo as empresas estudadas, o sistema construtivo modular é associado à redução de prazos, maior previsibilidade e elevado controle de qualidade, aspectos decorrentes da padronização fabril e da simultaneidade entre produção e obra. Também, evidenciam desafios importantes, como a necessidade de elevada coordenação entre projeto, fábrica e canteiro, limitações logísticas relacionadas às dimensões dos módulos, dependência de mão de obra especializada e ajustes pontuais após a montagem. Conclui-se que a construção modular apresenta grande potencial para aprimorar a produtividade e a organização da construção civil brasileira, desde que apoiada por planejamento integrado e documentação técnica consistente, contribuindo para a difusão de práticas alinhadas à industrialização da construção no país.
This work presents a detailed analysis of the three-dimensional modular construction process applied to a multifamily residential development located in Florianópolis, Santa Catarina, Brazil, aiming to understand how, in practice, the stages of factory production, transport logistics, and on-site execution are articulated. The main objective is to characterize the complete pathway of the 3D modules, from their manufacturing to their final installation on site, identifying executive practices, potentialities, and difficulties perceived by the professionals involved. The research adopts a qualitative approach of an exploratory-descriptive nature, based on direct observations carried out in the factory and on the construction site, analysis of technical documents, and interviews with teams from the three stages of the process — factory production, transportation, and on-site execution. Initially, the study describes the factory organization, the production sequence of the structural subsystems, and the execution and inspection procedures adopted by the company responsible for the modules. Subsequently, the logistical stages are analyzed, including long-distance transportation, intermediate storage, and the hoisting and positioning operations of the modules on site. In the execution stage, the receipt of the units, their alignment and fixation onto the foundation, the structural and building services connections, as well as the enclosure and finishing processes are detailed. It was found that, according to the companies studied, the modular construction system is associated with reduced construction timeframes, greater predictability, and a high level of quality control, resulting from factory standardization and the simultaneity between production and on- site activities. Significant challenges were also identified, such as the need for a high level of coordination among design, factory, and construction site, logistical constraints related to module dimensions, reliance on specialized labor, and specific adjustments required after assembly. It is concluded that modular construction presents great potential to enhance productivity and organization within the Brazilian construction industry, as long as it is supported by integrated planning and consistent technical documentation, contributing to the dissemination of practices aligned with the industrialization of construction in the country.
