2. 1. 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

4. 2. Co-firing complex biomass in a CFB boiler : ash transformation, corrosion control and materials selection

   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; ash transformation; process control; equilibrium calculations; boiler availability; failures; alloy selection; alloy degradation; vortex finder VF ; service life estimation; sulfation; chloridation; high temperature corrosion; biomass; waste derived fuels; forest residues; RDF; Biomal; slaughterhouse waste; peat; waste wood; industrial waste water treatment sludge; HAD; RSMT; Alloy 253MA; Alloy 310S; Alloy 800H HT; Alloy DS; Alloy 600;

   Abstract : The effects of greenhouse gas net emissions on global warming, stricter legislation on waste handling, and the pursuit of ever cheaper heat- and power production are all important factors driving the introduction of complex fuels in incineration plants. However - without fundamental knowledge regarding ash transformation, corrosion control, and materials selection – this introduction of potentially economically and environmentally beneficial fuels, might instead cause economic loss and environmentally adverse effects.

5. 3. In-situ concrete frameworks in multifamily buildings : Modelling and simulation of construction methods and activities

   Author : Robert Larsson; Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Abstract : In Sweden and elsewhere in the world the construction industry has encountered criticism due to its lower productivity gains in comparison to other industries. This is why continual improvement of processes and forms of cooperation are important, as is utilisation of technologies giving greater efficiencies. READ MORE

6. 4. Use of configuration information in construction projects to ensure high performance of healthcare facilities

   Author : Pia Schönbeck; Anders Ansell; Malin Löfsjögård; Göran Lindahl; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; configuration management; information management; project management; product management; healthcare facilities; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering; Concrete Structures; Betongbyggnad;

   Abstract : The transfer of information between the different phases of construction projects is limited, which complicates the quality assurance of configurations. Functional requirements on the building configuration are often ambiguous and lack measurable acceptance criteria. READ MORE

7. 5. Design Iteration Control Framework for Offsite Building Projects

   Author : Martin Haller; Alexander Petutschnigg; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Träbyggnad; Timber Structures;

   Abstract : During the course of the studies this thesis is based upon a designiteration control framework for offsite building projects wasconceptualized. The ultimate goal was to develop a robust tool to assistproject managers to find the optimal balance between maintainingsufficient project-by-project iteration to solve complex designproblems, and avoiding excessive iteration, which unnecessarilycomplicates design and scheduling.
