Proposta de retrofit do laboratório de instalações hidrossanitárias do Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia da Bahia - Campus Salvador

Abstract

This study presents the current situation of the Hydrosanitary Facilities Laboratory, which has limitations in carrying out practical experiments. Practice is important for students to acquire experiences to apply theoretical concepts acquired in classrooms, transforming theory into practical experiences. The Retrofit proposal was highlighted as a layout option prioritizing better use of space and accessibility in order to obtain better results with the practices inherent to hydrosanitary installations. To this end, a cadastral survey of the environment was carried out, then the limiting factors were identified through a diagnosis, and then a preliminary study with feasible solutions to solve the problems. From then on, a new layout was designed with a synthetic budget spreadsheet to make it viable. The main novelty is the installation of a teaching bench for the bathroom's hydrosanitary facilities, with hot and cold water, kitchen and laundry area. It is important for the training of building technicians to have the possibility of monitoring and easy access to a representation of the sanitary systems common to a building. Through classes in the renovated laboratory, theoretical knowledge will certainly be clarified and put into practice.
