Abstract(s)
A sustentabilidade é um dos temas mais importantes a nível mundial. É um assunto atual, através do qual, todos se devem debruçar para que o desenvolvimento da sociedade possa ser assegurado no futuro. A construção é um dos setores com mais responsabilidade pelas implicações negativas causadas ao meio ambiente. Nesse sentido, foram surgindo vários métodos para avaliar o nível de sustentabilidade de edifícios. Com efeito, esta dissertação pretende criar um novo método de avaliação, mas direcionado para Health Clubs e focado no conhecido triple bottom line. A metodologia utilizada para a elaboração do presente estudo foi a Investigação-Ação. Para isso, foi elaborada uma revisão bibliográfica aos métodos de avaliação da sustentabilidade, já existentes, com o intuito de perceber quais as melhores práticas, características e ponderações usadas por estes. Após a revisão bibliográfica, foi elaborado um estudo estatístico com seis Health Clubs da rede Solinca. Este estudo pretendeu analisar quais as características, que um edifício deste género tem e que influenciam positiva, ou negativamente os consumos energéticos do mesmo. No entanto, com os dados recolhidos não foi possível retirar conclusões 100% fidedignas. Nesse sentido, optouse pela construção de um modelo conceptual que carece de desenvolvimentos e estudos futuros para a sua implementação. O modelo conceptual construído propõe uma avaliação a um Health Club segundo 36 temas associados às vertentes da sustentabilidade.
Sustainability is one of the most important issues worldwide. It is a current issue, through which everyone must address themselves so that the development of society can be ensured in the future. Construction is one of the sectors most responsible for the negative implications caused to the environment. In this sense, several methods have emerged to assess the level of sustainability of buildings. In fact, this dissertation intends to create a new evaluation method, but aimed at Health Clubs and focused on the well-known triple bottom line. The methodology used to prepare this study was Action Research. For this, a bibliographic review of the existing sustainability assessment methods was prepared, in order to understand the best practices, characteristics and weights used by them. After the literature review, a statistical study was carried out with six Health Clubs of the Solinca network. This study intends to analyze which characteristics a building of this kind has and which positively or negatively influence energy consumption. However, it was not possible to draw 100% reliable conclusions from the collected data. In this sense, it was decided to build a conceptual model that needs further development and studies for its implementation. The constructed conceptual model proposes an assessment of a Health Club according to 36 themes associated with the aspects of sustainability.
