Abstract

The construction industry faces today a relevant theme: the potential generation of solid waste by new construction and renovation works. Environmental impact becomes inevitable and the magnitude of the problem increases when there is an inefficiency of public policies, lack of planning and knowledge of the correct use of materials, and the practice of outdated techniques. As a result, the generation of debris from construction sites reached alarming levels due to the lack of a waste management plan at the site. This gradual growth generates discussions about ways to reverse the current situation, considering also that there is a great environmental impact due to the clandestine deposition of this waste and to the branch of the civil construction require a vast extraction of natural aggregates. In this way, the present work had as objective the management of solid waste of the construction in new construction and renovation works, located in the municipality of Itapiranga - SC. For that, the characterization of the works and the generated residues was carried out, with qualitative and quantitative analysis. After, management actions were applied, such as minimization, segregation, packaging, destination and transportation of construction waste. As a result, there is the organization of the construction site, awareness and awareness by the team of workers contributing to the segregation and packaging of waste in the works, managing to reuse and recycle all waste generated. At the end, it is concluded that following the methodology of waste management of the construction presented, it is possible to significantly reduce the generation of waste, both for a new construction work, and for renovation. However, it is necessary to involve all those responsible for the work and the commitment to the appropriate destination.
