The object of this study was to conduct a structural evaluation of the mechanical strength and wooden structure conditions of ‘Casa de Cultura’ (House of the Culture), a historic building of Colony Murici, in São José dos Pinhais, metropolitan area of Curitiba, Paraná state. The structural evaluation was performed according to the ABNT NBR 7190 (1997) standards - Design of timber structures, ABNT NBR 6123 (1988) - Forces due to wind on buildings, in addition to that, the recommendations of the Italian standard UNI 11119 (2004) were followed for the visual diagnosis. The results showed specific impairment caused by physical deterioration and attack by biological agents. A detailed map of the points and agents of degradation was produced based on a visual analysis of the structure. Through calculations, it was concluded that although there were changes of geometry, the structure still has strength and does not compromise the security of its users. It was identified by visual analysis insects of the Coleoptera order, brown and soft rot fungi. However, a periodic inspection is recommended to control the decrease of the transversal section strain in the structural element, in order to avoid the collapse of the structure and ensure the preservation of this heritage.
