Realidade e desafios para implementação de critérios de sustentabilidade nas edificações da UFRPE

Abstract

The government of an emergency law has an obligation to become public. With regard to research on the sustainability of public enterprises, this response also exists. This research aims to analyze the reality and the challenges for the implementation of sustainability criteria in the buildings of the Federal Rural University of Pernambuco. With this intention, the study was divided into two stages. First, through a direct observation of the buildings and the documentary analysis of their basic projects, a diagnosis of UFRPE buildings was elaborated, in light of Normative Instruction No. 01/2010 - MPOG, which provides for the criteria of environmental sustainability in the acquisition of goods, contracting of services or construction works by the federal public administration. At the end of this diagnosis, it was identified that in reality, UFRPE already obey many of the sustainability criteria, but it still a long way from the university to obey them fully. In the second stage, semi-structured interviews were conducted with engineers from the engineering sector and senior management from UFRPE to identify barriers to the implementation of the sustainability criteria brought by IN n ° 01/2010. The treatment of the collected data was based on the methodological support of the content analysis and among the set of techniques systematized by said method, the analysis by categories was used. The results of this research point out that there are some challenges that UFRPE has encountered in the process of developing sustainable buildings, but two of them deserve special attention: the legislation that needs to be modernized and the high initial investment cost that is still needed.
