Utilização da Matriz GUT na análise das manifestações patológicas em unidades habitacionais do Programa Minha Casa, Minha Vida: um estudo de caso

n Brazil, the production of social housing is highly concentrated in the Minha Casa Minha Vida Program (PMCMV), whose objective is to meet the housing needs of low-income families. This Federal Government Program is part of a broad housing policy aimed at eradicating the housing deficit. In this scenario, pathological manifestations are identified in these dwellings across different regions. However, what raises concern is the early incidence of these pathological manifestations in the first years of use of these dwellings. This study aims to apply the GUT Matrix methodology in the analysis of pathological manifestations, using as a sample 7 data points from a total of 37 housing units of the Manoel Raimundo de Santana Filho Residential Complex of PMCMV, in the city of Juazeiro do Norte - CE. The data for this study were obtained through a company outsourced by Caixa Econômica Federal. It was observed that the pathological manifestation related to the inconsistency of the raft foundation and differential settlement of the base masonry has the highest degree of priority, and that cracks, fissures, and infiltrations have greater incidence. It was concluded that the GUT matrix is effective as a tool for developing efficient planning aimed at recovering areas with pathological manifestations.
