Aplicação da linha de balanço em um cronograma físico de uma obra de pavimentos repetitivos

Abstract

The balance line is a technique used to facilitate the control of the sequence of tasks in the schedule of a work. This tool allows a quick view of all planned activities on a construction site. Through a graphical representation, it is possible to identify which activity is being planned for execution, the place where this activity must take place, the date on which the beginning and end of this task is determined, who will effectively produce the activity in question, the time duration of the activity, among other information such as rhythm and production rate. The objective of this work was to generate a balance line based on a schedule of a work object of study. In this work, the use of the balance line was applied in the physical schedule of a work, the teams for each of the tasks were determined and the balance line was drawn, in such a way that its final version is considered efficient within the premises adopted for its conception. For this, the methodology proposed by Mendes (1999) was used. During the development of the work, changes were made in teams, number of employees and sequence of tasks, always aiming at a reduction in the total duration of the work as a whole, being the object of study of this work only the execution of internal activities to be carried out in apartment. As a result, it was possible to achieve a balance line that reduced the total time initially proposed for the work. The conclusion was allowed thanks to the analyzes and alterations taken during the development and modifications that occurred in the design of the balance line.
