Abstract

The Civil Construction Industry is one of the activities that has a high recognition of its importance for the collaboration of economic and social development, on the other hand, it presents itself as a major generator of negative environmental impacts. Therefore, measures to reduce negative impacts on the environment are sought by industries, strengthening the use of actions that prevent the good of natural resources, focused on environmental management in line with economic, social and technology variables. The General objective of this work is to create a checklist of sustainability criteria for public works construction bids based on UACSA's executive and descriptive memorial projects and the current legal requirements for public works. The methodology consists of a case study at UACSA, the first phase of the study sought to know the legislation in force in Brazil focused on sustainability criteria in public works, the second phase verified the sustainability criteria contained in UACSA projects, in the third phase correlated the criteria established in laws, decrees and normative instruction, with those contained in the projects and finally develop a flow of processes through interviews with public managers. As a result, the current legislation was raised, through the Planalto government website, from 1980 to 2019. To check the sustainability criteria contained in the projects, 10 categories were established, namely: Architecture, Earthworks, Structure, Electric, Communication and internet, Hydraulics, Sanitary, Air conditioning, Accessibility and Solid Waste. By correlating the legal aspects with the criteria contained in the projects, the managers met the largest possible number of legal requirements for the project. The process flowchart to guide managers in implementing sustainability criteria in public works. It is concluded that the actions and practices adopted by sustainable civil construction, point to solutions that improve the procedures used, thereby reducing the volume of waste generated, increasing efficiency and rationalization with the use of water and energy, respecting the characteristics environmental conditions, provide an infrastructure that everyone can enjoy.
