• Abstract:

  The practice of building houses by human beings is very old and over time there has been an accelerated growth of construction techniques, which began to cause the appearance of pathological manifestations arising from various factors (poor quality materials, execution errors, etc.). Due to this, the area of Pathologies in Buildings was created, which is focused on the study and analysis of these manifestations. Therefore, the present work was developed with the intention of analyzing the pathological manifestations found in a residential building located in the city of Recife-PE. For the development of this research, a very detailed bibliographic review was initially carried out, followed by the methodology used. The chosen method was the case study, widely used in research related to pathological manifestations today. For data collection, an inspection was carried out in the building's garage through a photographic survey of the main pathologies found. After this collection, data analysis was carried out, ending with the presentation of the identified pathologies, as well as their probable causes of occurrence and possible solutions. It was concluded that several pathologies can be avoided or even discovered in advance if more preventive maintenance is carried out in buildings, something that is rarely done today.
