21. Wetting and drying of aerogel-based coating mortars in Swedish climates
Sammanfattning : Aerogel-based coating mortars (ACMs) have emerged as energy-efficient wall finishes with thermal conductivities of 30–50 mW/(m∙K). These coating mortars represent a promising alternative to traditional thermal insulation materials for retrofitting uninsulated building envelopes particularly in culturally significant structures.

22. Reinforcement in Tailor-made Concrete Structures
Sammanfattning : In tailor-made concrete structures of complex geometries, the formability of concrete is an asset. To use this formability in load-bearing structures, the concrete needs to be reinforced. During the past century steel bars were used; however, in recent decades, alternative reinforcement methods have been introduced. LÄS MER
23. A sustainable home? Reconceptualizing home in a low-impact society
Sammanfattning : This thesis addresses the environmental and socio-economic impact of modern ways of living, focusing on home-related concepts and practices for transitions to a less environmentally harmful and more socially just society. Exploring diverse conceptualizations of a sustainable home, the aim is to broaden discourses on less resource-intensive ways of living and residing. LÄS MER
24. Stainless Steel Corrugated Web Girders for Composite Road Bridges: Concept Evaluation and Flange Buckling Resistance
Sammanfattning : Achieving a sustainable bridge design requires careful consideration of economic viability and environmental impact over the entire lifespan of the structure. While stainless steel is recognized for its excellent life cycle performance, its high cost prevents it from being used to a larger extent in bridges. LÄS MER
25. Prestress and its application to shell, fabric, and cable net structures
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. LÄS MER
