Abstract(s)
A construção com terra crua é uma prática ancestral, utilizada pelo ser humano desde que
começou a erguer os seus primeiros abrigos. Ao longo dos séculos, diversas técnicas
construtivas foram desenvolvidas, refletindo a diversidade cultural dos povos e adaptação
às condições geográficas e climáticas de cada região.
As culturas tradicionais de construção em terra foram progressivamente desaparecendo,
com o impulso da industrialização da construção do mundo moderno.
O conhecimento associado à arquitetura vernacular, que utiliza materiais locais e práticas
sustentáveis, é uma herança cultural que pode ajudar a mitigar os impactos ambientais da
indústria da construção. A (re)utilização da terra crua como material de construção
apresenta vantagens significativas em termos de sustentabilidade, uma vez que pode ser
reciclada e reutilizada sem prejudicar o ambiente, contribuindo para uma construção
ecológica e economia circular.
Com este trabalho pretende-se dar a conhecer uma técnica construtiva tradicional em terra
crua - o adobe 3 amplamente utilizada no concelho da Moita até meados do século XX,
compreender as razões que levaram ao seu abandono e identificar o potencial de
revalorização dessa técnica, no contexto de uma construção mais sustentável e consciente.
Foi realizado um levantamento do estado da arte, abordando as características do material,
as diferentes técnicas de construção com terra e a evolução da construção e arquitetura
em terra.
Procedeu-se ao inventário e mapeamento das construções em adobe no concelho da
Moita. A recolha de dados permitiu identificar o estado de conservação das construções, o
tipo de uso e os fatores que influenciam a sua degradação ou preservação, culminando na
análise dos resultados obtidos e na sugestão de trabalhos futuros.
Building with raw earth is an ancient practice, used by human beings since they began to build their first shelters. Over the centuries, various construction techniques have been developed, reflecting the cultural diversity of peoples and adapting to the geographical and climatic conditions of each region. Traditional earthen building cultures gradually disappeared with the impetus of the industrialisation of construction in the modern world. The knowledge associated with vernacular architecture, which uses local materials and sustainable practices, is a cultural heritage that can help mitigate the environmental impacts of the construction industry. The (re)use of raw earth as a building material has significant advantages in terms of sustainability, since it can be recycled and reused without harming the environment, contributing to ecological construction and the circular economy. The aim of this work is to raise awareness of a traditional raw earth construction technique - adobe - that was widely used in the municipality of Moita until the mid-20th century, to understand the reasons that led to its abandonment and to identify the potential for revalorising this technique in the context of more sustainable and conscious construction. A survey of the state of the art was carried out, covering the characteristics of the material, the different earth construction techniques and the evolution of earth construction and architecture. An inventory and mapping of adobe constructions in the municipality of Moita was carried out. Data collection made it possible to identify the state of conservation of the buildings, the type of use and the factors that influence their degradation or preservation, culminating in an analysis of the results obtained and suggestions for future work.
