2. 1. Integrated Bridge Maintenance : Evaluation of a pilot project and future perspectives

   Author : Hans-Åke Mattsson; Håkan Sundquist; Jan Bröchner; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; bridge management; bridge maintenance; real service life; partnering; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik;

   Abstract : The trend in many countries is to outsource maintenance with competitive tendering. The design of the tender is then a crucial issue. A new type of tendering contract, called "Integrated Bridge Maintenance", was introduced in one experimental area in Sweden. READ MORE

4. 2. Corrective maintenance maturity model : problem management

   Author : Mira Kajko-Mattsson; Ned Chapin; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; System design; Maintenance process models; Systemutveckling; data- och systemvetenskap; Computer and Systems Sciences;

   Abstract : Maintenance has become one of the most complex, crucial and costly disciplines within software engineering. Despite this, very few maintenance process models have been suggested. The extant models are too general, covering all maintenance categories, i.e. READ MORE

5. 3. Property management and maintenance in the multifamily housing sector in Sweden

   Author : Henry Muyingo; Hans Lind; Stefan Olander; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Property management; housing maintenance; tenant-owner; cooperative housing; maintenance planning; incentives; bostadsrätt; fastighetsförvaltning; fastighetsunderhåll; underhållsplanering; incitament; bostadsrättsförening; Fastigheter och byggande; Real Estate and Construction Management;

   Abstract : Several studies and government reports have indicated that a large number of apartments in Sweden built during the 1960s and 1970s require extensive refurbishment and that there is concern that some companies in the rental housing sector and in the tenant-owner cooperative (TOC) sector may have difficulties carrying out the needed activities. The overall purpose of the thesis is to increase the understanding of the factors that influence the decisions made within the multi­ faceted property management of multifamily housing in Sweden which would mitigate some of the shortcomings.

6. 4. Improved road design for future maintenance : analysis of road barrier repair costs

   Author : Hawzheen Karim; Ulf Isacsson; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; highway maintenance; highway management; highway design; road planning; road design; highway engineering; road barrier; cable barrier; w-beam barrier; road barrier damages; barrier repair cost.; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik; Vägprojektering för minskade drift- och underhållskostnader;

   Abstract : The cost of a road construction over its service life is a function of the design, quality of construction, maintenance strategies and maintenance operations. Unfortunately, designers often neglect a very important aspect which is the possibility to perform future maintenance activities. READ MORE

7. 5. Reinforcement in Tailor-made Concrete Structures

   Author : David Fall; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Tailor-made concrete structures; Steel fibre reinforcement; Automated production; Geometrically complex structures; Reinforcement alternatives;

   Abstract : In tailor-made concrete structures of complex geometries, the formability of concrete is an asset. To use this formability in load-bearing structures, the concrete needs to be reinforced. During the past century steel bars were used; however, in recent decades, alternative reinforcement methods have been introduced. READ MORE
