The State of Santa Catarina Has the Second Highest Cost of Civil Construction in Brazil. See Value per Square Meter.

Santa Catarina stood out in the national civil construction scene in March, but not exactly for a positive reason. According to data from IBGE, the state recorded the second highest cost per square meter in the country: R$ 2,057.33.

The survey is part of Sinapi (National System of Research on Costs and Indices of Civil Construction) and considers the prices of materials and labor.

Only Acre Surpasses Santa Catarina in the Ranking

The only state with a higher cost than Santa Catarina was Acre, with an average value of R$ 2,069.71 per square meter. In third place is Rondônia, with R$ 1,999.90.

Engineers want to carve through Africa with a giant canal to bring water from the world’s second-largest river to a dying lake on the edge of the Sahara Desert that has already lost 90% of its water.

A giant brown band visible from space, approximately 8,850 kilometers long, connected Africa to America in the Atlantic Ocean, and satellites revealed that it is neither land nor pollution, but the largest accumulation of seaweed in the world, which broke records in 2025.

Instead of burning or burying old tires, an American city is transforming about 2,000 of them into the street itself, paving its first sections with a quieter and more durable rubber asphalt.

In just one cast, fishermen are surprised to capture 14,096 mullets in Bombinhas and close a historic season with 58,000 fish; scene recorded in the Santa Catarina paradise marks the last day of the 2026 season.

Using high-resolution satellite images, archaeologists rediscovered the Egyptian city of Imet, buried for centuries in the Nile Delta, revealing rare multi-story houses, granaries, and a sacred road linked to the cobra goddess Wadjet, from about 2,400 years ago.

Greek island offers free housing for volunteers, but there’s a condition: you need to take care of rescued cats.

Motorcyclist sees excavator arriving at the edge of a river in Bosnia, calls neighbors in minutes and turns a hydroelectric project into a resistance lasting more than 10 years with five expired concessions.

Dissatisfied with seeing the construction industry rely on increasingly expensive and polluting materials, students from Paraná used orange peel in mortar, caught attention in an innovation challenge, and can now turn the project into a product with tests at UTFPR.

The GPS signal disappeared in large areas of the planet, and this alarmed experts, but a study analyzed events and placed Russian early warning satellites at the center of the investigation.

BYD will invest up to R$ 500 million in batteries in Brazil after the government auction and could generate at least 400 direct jobs.

Frightened by the speed of Chinese manufacturers, Renault decided to mimic the pace, made the new electric Twingo in just 21 months, wants to repeat the feat with 36 models by 2030, and along the way, will cut up to 2,400 engineering positions.

All it took was the radio on, a cake with generous frosting, and a house full of aunts and neighbors for any birthday to turn into a celebration; childhood parties marked entire generations precisely because they needed almost nothing.

How to properly build a brick wall, starting with measuring the area, choosing materials, preparing the mortar, aligning with nylon string, and finishing with lime, putty, and paint.

Four thousand PET bottles became a 24m² house in the interior of São Paulo, as ten students proved that it’s possible to build a home from floor to ceiling with recycled plastic, spending 30% less than a brick construction.

Man builds entire village with over 1 million PET bottles and impresses with creativity; known as Plastic Bottle Village, the project even erected a four-story castle with 40,000 bottles and entered the Guinness World Records.

Concrete made with seawater and marine sand challenges one of the basic rules of civil construction, replacing common steel with corrosion-resistant reinforcements, and can turn islands and coastal works into laboratories of a new salty engineering.
