The development of civil construction activity represents the basis of social organization, providing the necessary infrastructure for the development of various other activities such as the structuring of industries, housing, transportation, etc. The civil construction industry is characterized by its plurality of activities and the degree of relevance it presents in the participation of the Brazilian economy. Given the segmentation of activities that make up this sector, one can identify the production and sale of machinery and equipment, services, trade in materials, materials industries, heavy construction and buildings, among others. Thus, civil construction activities contribute with a significant share to the negative impacts caused to the environment, interfering in the physical, biotic and anthropic environment. The objective of this work is based on the identification and confirmation of the variables involved in the process of generation of construction waste (CCW), thus collaborating to the measurement of the amount of waste produced in the production process.
