Resumo: | The fall of the Liberdade building, a 20-story commercial building, also caused the collapse of the two adjacent buildings, the Colombo and Treze de Maio buildings, located in downtown Rio de Janeiro. Initially, the building had no apparent causes that would lead to its ruin and the focus turned to irregular work carried out on the 9th floor. During the civil and criminal liability process, several causes were found that may have culminated in the accident. Even with the performance of judicial expertise and the opinions of several engineering specialists, all through indirect analysis, to date, the cause of the accident has not been defined. However, the civil liability of the manager allowed several modifications to the building over the decades. Liability in cases of accidents may fall on the engineer or architect of the work and, in his absence, on the owner or manager. The study concludes the importance of direct expertise in accident sites, the role of the city hall and inspection bodies, and the changes in infra-legal norms related to works and renovations after the accident. |

Inicialmente, el edificio no tenía causas aparentes que lo llevaran a su ruina y el foco se centró en una obra irregular realizada en el noveno piso. Durante el proceso de responsabilidad civil y penal. Inicialmente, se discutieron varias posibles causas del accidente, a través de análisis indirectos. Incluso con la actuación de peritajes judiciales y las opiniones de diversos especialistas en ingeniería civil, hasta la fecha no se ha definido la causa exacta del accidente. Sin embargo, el administrador fue civilmente responsabilizado por el derrumbe y sus consecuencias por haber permitido varias modificaciones al edificio a lo largo de las décadas. Después de todo, la responsabilidad en casos de accidentes puede recaer en el ingeniero o arquitecto de la obra y, en su ausencia, en el propietario o gerente. El estudio concluye la importancia de la experiencia directa en los lugares de los accidentes, el papel del ayuntamiento y los órganos de inspección y los cambios en las normas infralegales relacionadas con las obras y renovaciones posteriores al accidente.A queda do edifício Liberdade, um prédio comercial de 20 andares, fez desabar também os dois prédios ao lado, os edifícios Colombo e Treze de Maio, localizados no Centro da Cidade do Rio de Janeiro. Inicialmente o prédio não apresentava causas aparentes que fizessem culminar em sua ruína e o foco se voltou para uma obra, irregular, realizada no 9º andar. No decorrer do processo de responsabilização civil e penal, foram encontrados diversas causas que podem ter culminado no acidente. Mesmo com a realização de perícia judicial e os pareceres de diversos especialistas de engenharia, todos através de análise indireta, até a presente data não foi definida a causa do acidente. Entretanto, a responsabilização civil do síndico que permitiu diversas modificações no prédio no decorrer de décadas. A responsabilização em casos de acidentes pode recair sobre o engenheiro ou arquiteto da obra e, na ausência deste, sobre o proprietário ou síndico. O estudo conclui a importância da perícia direta em locais de acidentes, do papel da prefeitura e órgãos fiscalizadores e as mudanças nas normas infralegais relacionadas a obras e reformas após o acidente.Research, Society and Development2021-08-08info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/1864810.33448/rsd-v10i10.18648Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 10; e216101018648Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 10; e216101018648Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 10; e2161010186482525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/18648/16758Copyright (c) 2021 Beatriz Costa de Mendonça; Elie Chahdan Mounzerhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMendonça, Beatriz Costa de Mounzer, Elie Chahdan 2021-10-02T21:49:16Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/18648Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:38:43.893665Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
