Com o avanço da construção de edificações mais esbeltas são necessárias novas soluções para melhoria das fundações em relação aos esforços de tração. Neste estudo, comparou-se valores de capacidade de carga pelo método teórico de tronco de cone aos obtidos pela prova de carga in situ. Para isso foram confeccionadas seis estacas, sendo três concretadas com o uso do aditivo expansor MC- Quellmittel e três sem o uso desse. Constatou-se que a adição de 0,15% do aditivo MC- Quellmittel ocasionou um aumento de 10,9% no atrito lateral, resultando em um ganho na capacidade de carga à tração nas estacas.

The inclusion of digital fabrication and prototyping in the school environment contributes significantly to learning, stimulating the cognitive process of students. The objective is to introduce concepts of these technologies to students from municipal public schools, relating to the built environment. The action research procedure is developed through practical workshops in a university's laboratory. The workshops promoted clarification about digital technologies for children, encouraging them to reflect on elements that promote improvement in the built environment. The approach with technologies since the beginning of citizen education, points to societies aware of the transformations in the environment in which they live.

Parameterization has shown potential in creating architectural projects and verification steps. The objective is to develop a parametric and generative tool, containing the urban parameters of the Master Plan of a municipality, to assist in the phase of field study. The model is developed with the aid of Revit software and Dynamo plug-in. The results converge to a tool where users enter the lot's dimensions and zoning, and it applies the other parameters. It is possible to analyze the constructive potential quickly, avoiding errors. The parameterization process is emphasized, encouraging the user to apply new methodologies in early project stages.

Digital technologies have transformed the stages of the Architecture and Urbanism design process, interfering in the learning method. The objective is to present the results acquired during the implementation of an undergraduate discipline, verifying evolution, method and impact on the process. These are presented through a qualitative approach and procedure classified as Case Study and Ex-post-facto. The evolution of the component is perceived over the years, positively impacting on the quality of teaching and training of students. The insertion of digital technologies in academic background reflects on the development of skills and abilities, providing new experiences and enriching the teaching.
