Implementação de práticas de Lean Construction em obras de pequeno porte: uma revisão da literatura.

Abstract

The Lean philosophy has as its main focus the reduction of activities that do not add value to the final product and can be used in various segments of the economy, being guided by a central thought dedicated to perfecting techniques of value conception. Each sphere of the market uses this philosophy with feasible adjustments and adaptations appropriate to each of them, and in civil construction it was no different. The problem that is the focus of this study is inefficiency in the production processes and waste of raw material. For the construction of the following work, a literature review was carried out on the main techniques and tools of Lean philosophy used in the construction industry. The present research has exploratory objectives, with a qualitative approach and as for the procedures, it is characterized as bibliographic research. For data collection, the studies were chosen according to the objectives of the present work, with a systemic analysis of the data, relating the authors selected and formulating the data through tables. Another important aspect addressed in this work is the basic principles of Lean Construction that dictate techniques for containing waste and originating agile results and engaged with the individuality of each project. This work aims to evaluate the possibility of implementing Lean Construction in small works and to identify the fundamental adaptations to the project so that the processes are aligned with this concept.
