The published norm brings together recommendations and guidelines based on the experiences of the SEHAB technical team with the objective of guiding designers who will develop social housing projects in the municipality of São Paulo, updating the SEHAB publication of 2011 called “Project Guidelines”. The premise for projects of social housing developments (EHIS) is to seek to adapt good techniques to the best conditions of habitability, safety, durability, and economy in the maintenance of buildings. These guidelines are guidelines and do not replace the technical standards and legislation in force, which must be fully complied with.

Evaluation of the Good Practice
All new HIS development projects are being developed in line with Ordinance n. 37/2021-SEHAB since the preliminary studies, and the projects that were already in progress were adapted to these guidelines at the stage they are at, eg. basic project or executive project. There are dozens of projects, 21 of which are Urban Operation Consortium Águas Espraiadas, 11 of which are in the development phase of the executive project (Phase 1) and 10 are in development of the basic project (Phase 2). Among these projects are also Wilton Paes de Almeida (WPA), Ponte dos Remédios, Jardim Colombo, Pirajussara 7 - several of these still without the number of UHs defined, because they are still in the initial stage of elaboration or revision of the studies.
Key stakeholders and partnerships
SEHAB, COHAB, CDHU, Caixa Econômica Federal (Programa Minha Casa, Minha Vida), private entrepreneurs that promote EHIS in the municipality.
