1. Recycling Potential and Design for Disassembly in Buildings
Sammanfattning : Recycling as part of environmental considerations has become a common feature in architecture and building construction. Recycling of building waste can make a considerable contribution to reducing the total environmental impact of the building sector. LÄS MER
2. End-user activity-based service design in the built environment context : Exploring everyday life in KTH Live-in-Lab
Sammanfattning : The main goal of this thesis is to communicate the motivation, process, and result of the research project dedicated to exploring the topic of Service Design, based on end-user activities analysis in the built environment context. We have elected to use a KTH Live-in-Lab as a testbed in relation to the chosen living lab network of actors and stakeholders. LÄS MER
3. Sustainable building ventilation solutions with heat recovery from waste heat
Sammanfattning : The energy used by building sector accounts for approximately 40% of the total energy usage. In residential buildings, 30-60% of this energy is used for space heating which is mainly wasted by transmission heat losses. A share of 20-30% is lost by the discarded residential wastewater and the rest is devoted to ventilation heat loss. LÄS MER
4. Critical design activities in house-building projects : an industrial process perspective
Sammanfattning : Dealing with planning accuracy respectively design errors is a big issue within construction. It has been argued that design errors are a major cause for waste in housing projects, despite all technical development. Reasons for design errors are well investigated and often relate to human acting. LÄS MER
5. Industrial Management Models with Emphasis on Construction Waste
Sammanfattning : 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.
