This article aims to deepen the analysis of the risk elements present in construction projects, identifying, detailing, evaluating, and classifying the most relevant events present in this complex and dynamic environment. The central issue highlighted in the study considers the presence of risk elements and their relative impacts on construction projects, especially in aspects related to meeting schedules and budgets. To answer the problem mentioned, an exploratory survey of the Survey type was developed together with a non-probabilistic sample, characterized by 105 engineers and professionals who work with themes related to risk management in the Brazilian construction sector, complemented by a multivariate statistical analysis, under the framework of exploratory factor analysis. The results point to a distribution and classification of the observed elements, where 205 risk events are configured, properly classified by categories and factors. This detail makes it possible to assist future approaches that need, through the level of importance, to dimension and measure, in a more detailed way, potential aspects of risk present in projects destined to constructive undertakings.
