SUMMARY:

The present dissertation proposes to evaluate the architectural environment aimed at the elderly since their life expectancy has increased over time. In a survey carried out by the UN, it was found that in the year 2050, for the first time, the elderly population will be greater than that of children. Thus, the need to design adequate housing to meet this population age group is evident, providing them with greater autonomy and independence. In this bias, the accessibility interests for this part of society will be addressed in the Minha casa minha vida program, this social housing program is a type of strategy aimed at the population so that the income level does not prevent the individual from having access to housing . This type of mechanism is based on public policies, with the objective of guaranteeing decent conditions for housing and protection for this part of society. For this to happen, this housing, which is usually carried out in sets of buildings or houses, must meet the interests of the population, being endowed with an infrastructure that contains the requirements of basic sanitation, electricity and accessibility. As these constructions are made en masse for a significant amount of people, there is often a shortage in the infrastructure of these accommodations, such as the dimensional reduction of the basic rooms of a residence, often preventing physical access to users with permanent or temporary reduced mobility, among others. These categories include the elderly person who was the object of study for this research. Therefore, the objective of this research is to evaluate the spatial accessibility for the elderly in two housing units of the Minha Casa Minha Vida program in the city of Maceió-AL. Since old age can lead to reduced mobility, flexibility, motor coordination and perception. This analysis seeks to identify the positive aspects and the flaws of this system, giving suggestions on how this program could be adjusted to promote the real model of housing unit that contains minimum parameters of accessibility for popular housing projects. The method used was carried out in two stages, at first the Espaço de Atividades by Jorge Boueri Filho and the Evaluation of Housing Project by Gabriela Pereira were evaluated, evaluating the layout floor plan of these dwellings and their circulation and maneuvering areas, areas of access to furniture and equipment, evaluation of areas of overlapping circulation to areas of access to furniture and equipment. In the second stage, a spatial accessibility assessment spreadsheet prepared by Dischinger, Ely and Piardi (2012) was applied with the intention of punctuating the problems ensuring greater knowledge about them in order to improve the quality of these dwellings. With the results of the evaluations carried out, we can identify that the two housing units are below expectations for basic needs according to spatial accessibility, preventing the resident with reduced mobility from having a decent residence as offered by government public policies.
