  2. 1. Green procurement of buildings: estimation of environmental impact and life-cycle cost

    Author : Eva Sterner; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Steel Structures; Stålbyggnad; Construction Engineering and Management; Byggproduktion;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on environmental impact reduction and life-cycle cost estimations in building procurement. The aim for the work presented in this thesis is to contribute to the understanding of whether costs and environmental impact of a building can be integrated in a, from the users perspective, practical model applied for tender evaluation.

  4. 2. An Algorithmic Framework for Intelligent Concrete Structural Defects Detection and Classification

    Author : Ali Mirzazade; Björn Täljsten; Cosmin Popescu; Thomas Blanksvärd; Diogo Rodrigo Ferreira Ribeiro; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Civil Engineering Structures; defect detection; Structural Health Assessment; Bridge Inspection; Computer Vision; Point-Cloud Generation; Severity Assessment; Machine Learning Regression; Bridge 3D Modeling; Unmanned Inspections; Byggkonstruktion; Structural Engineering;

    Abstract : The primary objective of inspecting concrete civil structures is to gather information concerning the deterioration of concrete elements, including issues like concrete cover cracking, delamination, or corrosion. Typically, this data is documented through field inspection notes, hand-drawn sketches, and photographs. READ MORE

  7. 5. Energy simulation and life cycle costs : estimation of a building's performance in the early design phase

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

    Abstract : Sustainable development and the protection of the environment are key issues in our society today. The building stock in Europe accounts for over 40% of the final energy consumption, CO2 emissions and generation of waste. A large part of the life cycle performance is determined early. READ MORE
