Artigo Completo:

Certifications for sustainable buildings have been developed in various countries on the initiative of organizations with the participation of various actors from the construction sector. They are certifications that aim for sustainability with a focus on the better management of resources, the more rational use of space, the quality of the constructed space, the improvement of construction processes, among other things. This study covers four ventures adopted or created in Brazil: two certifications of foreign origin, AQUA-HQE and LEED, with an energy efficiency label, PBE Edifica (Programa Brasileiro de Etiquetagem Edifica [Brazilian Labelling Programme Building]), and a seal, Selo Casa Azul [Blue House Seal], being the main movements for certifications. This article, based on previous research, presents a survey on the quantities of certifications and on the project areas of the four certifications mentioned above. The data obtained from the entities responsible for the creation and dissemination of the four certificates was collected and organized, analysed and compared in order to reach conclusions afterwards. Two types of projects were considered: Residential and Non-Residential. With Residential projects, the focus was on multi-family buildings and with Non-Residential projects all types of buildings, even based on the differences in classifications in each one of the ventures. Another classification was the separation, with respect to Non-Residential certifications, of new buildings and in large-scale renovations of buildings in operation. Another surveyed and quantified datum was housing units in multi-family buildings
