  1. 16. Föreställning och eftertanke : bilder och verbalt språk i tidiga skeden av designprocessen

    Författare :Saddek Rehal; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; image; artefact; dialogue; language game; preconception; language; imagination; user; participation; concept; democracy; picture; design;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates why verbal language is not sufficient to express the experience and desires of the users and how imagery can be combined with words in the early stages of the design task to make this process go smother. A communication tool has been elaborated from a set of experiments simulating the dialogue in the initial phase of the design process. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Evaluation of Splitting Capacity of Bottom Rails in Partially Anchored Timber Frame Shear Walls

    Författare :Giuseppe Caprolu; Ian Smith; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Träbyggnad; Timber Structures;

    Sammanfattning : The horizontal stabilization of timber frame buildings is oftenprovided by shear walls. Plastic design methods can be used todetermine the load-carrying capacity of fully and partially anchoredshear walls. In order to use these methods, a ductile behaviour of thesheathing-to-framing joint must be ensured. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Industrialized construction - explorations of current practice and opportunities

    Författare :Linus Malmgren; Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; construction; industrialization; renovation; property maintenance;

    Sammanfattning : Industrialized construction has over the years taken different expressions and gone through different phases depending on where inspiration has come from. In this project, industrialized construction has been studied in two applications: timber house manufacturing and renovation of multi-family houses. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Prestress and its application to shell, fabric, and cable net structures

    Författare :Alexander Sehlström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Geometric stiffness; Form finding; Conceptual design; Stress pattern; Engineering; Prestress; Architecture; Structuraldesign;

    Sammanfattning : Prestressing and shells provide means to create material-efficient and well-functioning structures, as do their combination, offering opportunities for increased material efficiency within the built environment. Prestressing introduces stresses in an object to enhance its performance, and shells include concrete shells, masonry vaults, fabric structures, cable nets, and timber or steel gridshells.

  7. 20. Exploration and Optimization of Building Design Solutions using Computational Design

    Författare :Jani Mukkavaara; Marcus Sandberg; Timo Hartmann; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Building information modeling; Evolutionary design; Generative design; Parametric design; Byggproduktion och teknik; Construction Management and Building Technology;

    Sammanfattning : The focus of building design is increasingly moving towards considering performance as a driver, which can especially be seen in the realm of sustainable or green building design due to the advent of ambitious goals regarding energy consumption and emissions. Accounting for these concerns is an important target of the building design process, where there is a potential to make valuable contributions. LÄS MER
