Pathologies and Rehabilitation of Eclectic Buildings: The Case of Avenida Modelo
This paper intends to present the main pathologies found in eclectic buildings in Rio de Janeiro, based on the analysis of the two-story house that integrates the architectural complex known as Avenida Modelo, located in the Centre of the city and listed by IPHAN in 1985. To solve the pathologies found in this building, we focus mainly on one of the most fragile parts of this construction, the main façade, which still retains architectural elements characteristic of eclecticism. It shows itself as an important example to be consolidated and preserved. For the choice of the consolidation technique, we used a successful case located in Salvador, the Casarão dos Azulejos Azuis and the dissertation presented by Jorge Miguel Vital Rodrigues, which addresses the main techniques of consolidation and strengthening adopted in walls of old buildings. From understanding the pathologies and the definition of the consolidation techniques for the object of study, it was possible to elaborate on a project to rehabilitate the house. This work is part of the author's research to obtain a master's degree as part of the Professional master’s in design and Heritage from the Graduate Program in Design and Heritage at UFRJ.
