| Abstract | |
This dissertation intends to analyse architectural typologies of the implementation patterns of buildings meant to the production of stoneware pottery for home use (faience and porcelain). Ten factory units built between years 1913 and 1940 in the city of São Paulo and in the municipal districts known at present as Mauá and São Caetano do Sul were selected for study. The proposed discussion relates to the theme of industrial heritage; it is intended to contribute for acknowledgement, analysis and preservation of the remains of São Paulo State´s industrial architecture as well as it intends to estimulate analogous paperworks on other industrial fields by problematizing methodological issues arisen. Its objective is the elaboration of a retrospective inventory of these factories many of which are now inactive using the assembled documentation comprising iconography, publications and statistics about the factory, statements, cartography, as well as references to the factory buildings projects, to the construction tecniques used and to the specialization of the production environments, attentive to the possible relations between them and their respective energy and raw materials sources, and auxiliary structures. The resulting analyses contemplate the multiplicity of themes arisen History methodology, architectural typologies, traditional construction techniques, and industrial archaeology collating pertinent bibliography and suggesting lines of direction to deal with the diversity of documental sources and its use in historical-typological studies aiming industrial heritage preservation.
