Geometria fractal e etnomatemática no piso intertravado da praça Alfredo Nunes em São Gonçalo do Piauí

Abstract

The aim of this study is to understand to what extent ethnomathematical knowledge applied in the construction of the interlocking pavement of Alfredo Nunes Square in São Gonçalo do Piauí is related to fractal geometry. To do so, the study investigated ethnomathematical knowledge applied in the construction of the interlocking pavement of Alfredo Nunes Square in São Gonçalo do Piauí and its relation to fractal patterns. In the initial stage of this research, a literature review was conducted on existing information about Fractal Geometry, Ethnomathematics, and Interlocking Pavement, with extensive use of the 'Google Scholar' platform. In a second stage, interviews were conducted with the professionals responsible for the construction of the square's pavement regarding the construction process. Furthermore, photographic records were made to serve as sources for the analysis of the patterns found. Finally, the relationship between fractals and interlocking pavement, as well as its ethnomodel, will be demonstrated, along with how this environment can be viewed and applied using the BNCC (National Curricular Common Base)
