    Abstract : Increased attention is nowadays devoted to waste management. The objective of this work is to analyse how commonly known business economic models and methods, as well as the Polluter-Pays Principle, can be applied to waste management in general and to waste fractionation in particular, so as to facilitate environmental optimisation of industrial and construction waste fractionation.

  4. 2. Virtual reality in construction : tools, methods and processes

    Author : Stefan Woksepp; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Construction Engineering and Management; Byggproduktion;

    Abstract : Present-day construction projects are characterized by short-term partnerships between multidisciplinary teams with varying levels of process maturity and information handling capability. They involve the planning, design and erection of structures of all types. READ MORE

  5. 3. Road Design for Future Maintenance : Life-cycle Cost Analyses for Road Barriers

    Author : Hawzheen Karim; Björn Birgisson; Ulf Isacsson; Rolf Magnusson; Robert Thomson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; road maintenance; road management; road planning; road design; life-cycle cost; road barrier; guardrails; cable barrier; road traffic injuries; barrier collisions and barrier repair costs.; Civil engineering and architecture; Samhällsbyggnadsteknik och arkitektur; Vägprojektering för minskade drift- och underhållskostnader;

    Abstract : The cost of a road construction over its service life is a function of design, quality of construction as well as maintenance strategies and operations. An optimal life-cycle cost for a road requires evaluations of the above mentioned components. READ MORE

  6. 4. Data based configuration decisions in hospital construction projects

    Author : Pia Schönbeck; Anders Ansell; Malin Löfsjögård; Carmel Lindkvist; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Information management; Configuration management; Decision support; Hospital buildings; Concrete Structures; Betongbyggnad;

    Abstract : The purpose of hospital buildings is to enable the diagnosis, treatment and caring of patients. Hospital configurations are therefore complex and deficient functionality at the final delivery of construction projects are a known issue. Configuration management is essential to ensure that all required functions are fulfilled. READ MORE

  7. 5. Operator and Machine Models for Dynamic Simulation of Construction Machinery

    Author : Reno Filla; Jan-Ove Palmberg; Jonas Larsson; Allan Ericsson; Tobias C. Larsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : dynamic simulation; construction equipment; discrete simulation; continuous simulation; operator model; driver model; integrated product development; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : VIRTUAL PROTOTYPING has been generally adopted in product development in order to minimise the traditional reliance on testing of physical prototypes. It thus constitutes a major step towards solving the conflict of actual increasing development cost and time due to increasing customer demands on one side, and the need to decrease development cost and time due to increasing competition on the other.
