Comparative Analysis between Burnt Cement Floor and Porcelain Floor in a Commercial Area of Manaus-AM

The field of civil engineering has been evolving over the years, with increasing technological advances and innovations in several areas. Agility combined with quality are fundamental and must be thought of in all works, in addition to economic viability. The construction methods and materials for flooring and flooring available in the market should be analyzed to choose which one is the most suitable for the project model. Thus, it is questioned what the ideal floor type to be used in a commercial project is aiming at the best cost-benefit. The objective of this article is to present to the reader simply and directly the advantages and disadvantages of using burnt cement compared to porcelain in the execution of a work in a commercial area in the city of Manaus - AM. Given this quantitative research, a comparative analysis was performed between the execution of two types of floors used in civil construction, which are the burnt cement floor and the porcelain-type ceramic floor. The result of this work indicates that the burnt cement coating has the best cost-benefit because the execution time is relatively shorter, and the cost is also low when compared to porcelain.
