But there is one point that is often \u201coverlooked\u201d in the budget, and which can weigh heavily on the result: the choice of formwork and shoring systems.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"379\" data-end=\"719\">To choose the right system, it's not enough to just look at the price of the equipment. You need to consider the project, timetable and productivity, because these factors directly influence the structure's execution time and, consequently, the total cost of the work.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"379\" data-end=\"719\">\n<h3 data-start=\"721\" data-end=\"787\">Equipment may be a small slice, but the impact is big<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"788\" data-end=\"1075\">According to ABCP's Construction Community (cited in the article), formwork and shoring represent, on average, less than 10% of the approximate total cost of the structure. In other words: the equipment itself may not seem like the \u201cbig bad guy\u201d in the budget.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1077\" data-end=\"1394\">The key point is another: the formwork, shoring and scaffolding system has a very significant impact on labor costs. When the system is not very productive, execution takes longer, requires more staff for longer and increases indirect costs, as well as putting pressure on the schedule.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1077\" data-end=\"1394\">\n<h3 data-start=\"1396\" data-end=\"1444\">Productivity: what really \u201cturns the tables\u201d<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1445\" data-end=\"1783\">In Brazil, it's common to use these systems on a rental basis, since many construction companies don't stock, maintain or manage their equipment in-house. In this scenario, the faster you execute the structure, the less time the equipment is leased and the lower the final cost tends to be.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1785\" data-end=\"2133\">The article shows a clear difference when comparing the average productivity of industrialized systems versus conventional wood: while a conventional system can produce around 1 m\u00b2 per man-hour, industrialized systems for slabs can reach 5 to 7 m\u00b2 per man-hour, depending on the solution.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1785\" data-end=\"2133\">\n<h3 data-start=\"2135\" data-end=\"2193\">It's not just about cost: quality and performance come into the equation<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2194\" data-end=\"2565\">In addition to value, formwork and shoring also influence the quality of execution and the performance of the structure, as they are part of the process that enables precise concreting. Even though it is a \u201ctemporary\u201d system, it needs to facilitate the work, induce good execution practices and contribute to a more consistent result.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3231\" data-end=\"3380\">\n<p data-start=\"3231\" data-end=\"3380\"><strong data-start=\"3231\" data-end=\"3241\">Source:<\/strong> ULMA Construction Brazil<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quando a gente fala em reduzir o custo final de uma constru\u00e7\u00e3o, muita gente pensa apenas em concreto, a\u00e7o e acabamento. Mas existe um ponto que costuma \u201cpassar batido\u201d no or\u00e7amento, e que pode pesar muito no resultado: a escolha dos sistemas de f\u00f4rmas e escoramentos. Para definir o sistema correto, n\u00e3o basta olhar s\u00f3 o pre\u00e7o do equipamento. \u00c9 preciso considerar projeto, cronograma e produtividade, porque esses fatores influenciam diretamente o tempo de execu\u00e7\u00e3o da estrutura e, consequentemente, o custo total da obra. Equipamento pode ser uma fatia pequena, mas o impacto \u00e9 grande De acordo com a Comunidade da Constru\u00e7\u00e3o da ABCP (citada no artigo), f\u00f4rmas e escoramentos representam, em m\u00e9dia, menos de 10% do custo total aproximado da estrutura. Ou seja: o equipamento em si pode n\u00e3o parecer \u201co grande vil\u00e3o\u201d do or\u00e7amento. O ponto-chave \u00e9 outro: o sistema de f\u00f4rmas, escoramentos e andaimes tem impacto muito relevante no custo de m\u00e3o de obra. Quando o sistema \u00e9 pouco produtivo, a execu\u00e7\u00e3o demora mais, exige mais equipe por mais tempo e aumenta custos indiretos, al\u00e9m de pressionar o cronograma. Produtividade: o que realmente \u201cvira o jogo\u201d No Brasil, \u00e9 comum o uso desses sistemas em regime de loca\u00e7\u00e3o, j\u00e1 que muitas construtoras n\u00e3o mant\u00eam estoque, manuten\u00e7\u00e3o e gest\u00e3o de equipamentos internamente. Nesse cen\u00e1rio, quanto mais r\u00e1pido voc\u00ea executa a estrutura, menos tempo o equipamento fica locado e menor tende a ser o custo final. O artigo mostra uma diferen\u00e7a clara ao comparar produtividade m\u00e9dia de sistemas industrializados versus madeira convencional: enquanto um sistema convencional pode produzir cerca de 1 m\u00b2 por hora\/homem, sistemas industrializados para lajes podem chegar a 5 a 7 m\u00b2 por hora\/homem, a depender da solu\u00e7\u00e3o. N\u00e3o \u00e9 s\u00f3 custo: qualidade e desempenho entram na conta Al\u00e9m do valor, f\u00f4rmas e escoramentos tamb\u00e9m influenciam qualidade de execu\u00e7\u00e3o e desempenho da estrutura, pois fazem parte do processo que viabiliza a concretagem com precis\u00e3o. Mesmo sendo um sistema \u201cprovis\u00f3rio\u201d, ele precisa facilitar o trabalho, induzir boas pr\u00e1ticas de execu\u00e7\u00e3o e contribuir para um resultado mais consistente.
