   Sammanfattning : Construction clients in the public sector face a large number of challenges in designing, procuring and managing construction projects in a manner that is conducive to the organization’s overall goals. In particular, clients have faced challenges in delivering projects that satisfied the projects’ goals with respect to cost overruns, delays and sustainable construction. LÄS MER

3. 7. Att styra ett hållbart byggande - En definition av och en styrmodell för ett hållbart byggande

   Författare :Urban Persson; Byggproduktion; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sustainable construction; construction management model; styrmodell; Hållbart byggande;

   Sammanfattning : A large part of the Earth’s turnover of resources is associated with buildings and building construction. There is therefore a complex relationship to be taken into consideration when realizing construction projects, since economic and social aspects also affect individual people. LÄS MER

4. 8. Institutional changes in construction waste management

   Författare :Rickard Andersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; CDWM; Institutional Work; Circular Economy; Construction and demolition waste management; Institutional Logics;

   Sammanfattning : The construction industry is a major contributor to both environmental degradation and resource depletion. The industry responsible for more than 30 percent of the total amount of waste generated within the European Union relies on a linear mode of production where waste is considered as materials end-of-life, resulting in excessive consumption of natural resources.
