Patologias no concreto em construções portuárias - Estudo de caso no terminal hidroviário de Itaituba - Pá

Abstract

This work analyzes the pathologies affecting concrete in port constructions, focusing on the Itaituba Bus Terminal in PA. The study highlights the importance of durability and resistance of concrete in aggressive environments like ports, where constant exposure to moisture and chemical agents can compromise structural integrity. Inspections and analyses were conducted to identify major types of pathologies including cracks, efflorescence, and armor corrosion. Data was collected through field analysis to understand damage extent and causes. Results show that lack of maintenance and improper use of materials are critical factors contributing to concrete deterioration.
