Resumo: | The paper presents the results of a PhD qualitative research, with a phenomenological and observational approach, regarding the use of sleeper cabs of trucks in Brazil as temporary dwellings. Data collection was done by semi-structured interviews with 25 truck drivers and by direct observation and image record of their cabins in actual use, and also by interviews conducted with eight professionals from truck manufacturing and cabin customization companies. The results suggest that trips with many overnight stays, typical of Brazilian use, generate needs not always met by the original designs of sleeper cabins, so there are many adaptations made by users in order to sleep more comfortably, store objects, cook and eat, travel with their families, just to mention some. It is concluded that there is a challenge for truck manufacturers on how to incorporate the specific demands of local users, as well as the contributions of the solutions created by them, into the process of developing a global application product. |

Trucks sleeper cab design: user solutions in Brazil for use as temporary dwellingsDesign de cabines-leito de caminhões: soluções dos usuários no Brasil para o uso como habitações temporáriasThe paper presents the results of a PhD qualitative research, with a phenomenological and observational approach, regarding the use of sleeper cabs of trucks in Brazil as temporary dwellings.

O levantamento de dados se deu por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas com 25 caminhoneiros e pela observação direta e registro de imagens de suas cabines-leito em uso real, além de entrevistas com oito profissionais de empresas fabricantes de caminhões e de personalização de cabines. Os resultados sugerem que viagens com muitos pernoites, típicas do uso brasileiro, geram necessidades nem sempre atendidas pelos projetos originais, sendo comuns adaptações feitas por usuários para dormir com mais conforto, armazenar objetos, cozinhar e se alimentar, viajar com a família, entre outras. Conclui-se que há um desafio para os fabricantes de caminhões de como incorporar ao processo de desenvolvimento de um produto de aplicação global as demandas específicas de usuários locais, bem como as contribuições presentes nas soluções criadas por eles.UA Editora2019-09-09T00:00:00Zjournal articlejournal articlejournal articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.34624/etd.v0i3.20528oai:proa.ua.pt:article/20528Revista dos encontros internacionais Ergotrip Design; No 3 (2019): 2017·2018; 146-157Revista dos encontros internacionais Ergotrip Design; Núm. 3 (2019): 2017·2018; 146-157Revista dos encontros internacionais Ergotrip Design; n.º 3 (2019): 2017·2018; 146-1572183-928Xreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://proa.ua.pt/index.php/ergotripdesign/article/view/20528https://doi.org/10.34624/etd.v0i3.20528https://proa.ua.pt/index.php/ergotripdesign/article/view/20528/14882Direitos de Autor (c) 2019 Revista dos encontros internacionais Ergotrip Designhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMello, Ana Paula ScabelloVentura, Alessandro2022-09-22T10:11:29Zoai:proa.ua.pt:article/20528Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T15:56:48.788650Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
