<p>The management of construction waste in large cities carried out by the public administration presents some difficulties that have been increased due to the housing policy developed by the federal government. These problems have affected not only the generation, management, but also the final destination of the waste products. The objective of this study was to investigate the conflicts experienced in João Pessoa city through the quantification found in the Civil Construction and Demolition Waste Management Projects (PGRCCD) present in the Environmental Licensing processes requested in Environment Secretariat of João Pessoa (Semam). In João Pessoa, the situation experienced in the years 2014 and 2015 reflects the national scenario. In 2014 the upswing in the sector resulted in the generation of about 712,101.49 m3 of construction and demolition waste (RCDs). It became a problem because there was evidence of correct disposal of this waste occurring in only 8,471.50 m3 of the estimated total. In 2015, following the national slowdown due to the political-financial crisis, the generation of construction waste decreased considerably. As a result of that there was only an amount of 31,788.88 m3 of construction and demolition waste. However, the final waste disposal verification exceeded the waste generation quantification of the year, of 40,246.46 m3. This made us refer back to former problems’ resolutions. Based on the information from this period it can be said that the process of implementing shared management skills requires adjustments, improvements and technological investment in the traceability of waste disposal that includes the design of the architectural project and the project delivery for this would mean improvements for the city and less environmental impacts.</p>
