O crescimento populacional aumenta cada vez mais o impacto das atividades produtivas e das edificações sobre o meio. Por esse motivo é importante que o desenvolvimento seja sustentável. Assim, foi realizada uma pesquisa por meio de questionários pré-testados, para verificar como os engenheiros civis e arquitetos estão preparados para reduzir o impacto das edificações sobre o ambiente e como podem ser melhor informados sobre o assunto. O resultado mostra que a maioria dos profissionais, que responderam ao questionário, têm pouco conhecimento sobre o conceito de desenvolvimento sustentável, reconhecem os impactos das edificações sobre o ambiente, acreditam que a qualidade seja o item mais importante para a construção civil, e têm interesse em conhecer e aplicar mais os conceitos que diminuam o impacto das construções sobre o meio / Abstract: The present human development has been proven wrong by its aggressive means on the environment and to the society. The global population growth, the industrialization and the edifications grown too, to meet the demand, interfering directly in the environment. It¿s important the application of a sustainable development in the civil construction. To identify how the professionals of civil construction are prepared to reduce the affects of edifications on the environment, a survey with pre-tested questionnaires was applied. In this questionnaire, the results show that the respondents do not know precisely what sustainable development means. The answer showed that a great deal of the professionals are worried about the constructions' impact on the environment, and have interest in knowing and getting to know more about the concepts and applying them to their professional life, and think: that quality is the most important thing to the civil construction / Mestrado / Edificações / Mestre em Engenharia Civil

M.Tech. (Architectural Technology) / Johannesburg has a spacial condition of an infill city which has created a condition of ‘non place’, allowing for forgotten beauties within this disjunct urban fabric. In the author’s opinion, this condition of ‘non place’ allows for new exciting opportunities to connect this isolated landscape with its urban surrounds, manifesting a new urban layer. It is within this urban archipelago that an architectural intervention will be realised. Commenting on the hypotheses, the architecture should become a space within which nature can grow and become part of systemic exchange, creating a new urban ecology. When architecture and nature are fused, a new hybrid emerges, re-scripting the site of terrain vague into catalyst for socio ecological remediation. The architecture will not only attempt to rescript the third landscape, but also become a platform for exchange where knowledge can be obtained and shared through the tracing and recording of the landscape and climate influence. This dissertation explores architecture in a manner which will incorporate nature and remediation as a generator of the architecture of the terrain vague. By introducing biometics and technology, the architecture becomes an instrument of the site, in this way the architecture will respond to site and climate conditions, resulting in a systemic symbioses with nature. The architecture will respond to environmental conditions; expanding, contracting, moving and adapting, creating a different experience for the user on a daily basis.
