Resumo:In spite of current environmental legislation, inadequate disposition of construction solid waste (CSW) generates diffuse pollution in a large part of Brazilian territory. Many incipient plans of waste management systems, at the municipal level, and also their monitoring needs for having continuously improved systems were the mobilizing agents of this research, which proposed to determine and validate variables for a set of CSW management effectiveness indicators and through them to evaluate the management of CSW in the municipality of Sao Jose dos Campos. It is an applied research with quantitative and qualitative data, with a view to public utility. Fifteen effectiveness indicators were evaluated using 124 variables with different scores determined by the municipal managers. As a result of using the performance evaluation tool, it was showed that, even though sao Jose dos Campos is considered nationwide as reference in the management of CSW, it is still necessary to invite efforts so that its management can be considered effective, mainly in the economic and social dimensions. All indicators and variables presented in this study may guide evaluations in other Brazilian municipalities, as long as respect for local specificities is maintained.
