Det Svenska flerbostadshusbeståndet från åren 1945-1975 är på väg att nå slutet på sin tekniska livslängd. Byggnaderna från denna tidsperiod är i stort behov av renovering samt energieffektiviserande åtgärder för att minska energianvändningen och möjliggöra fortsatt användning av byggnaderna i framtiden, samtidigt som ekonomiskt utsatta personer har råd att bo kvar i byggnaderna. Dagens utmaning äThe Swedish apartment building stock from 1945-1975 is reaching the end of its technical life span. Renovations and energy efficiency measures are needed to reduce energy use and enable continued usage of the buildings in the future and still provide affordable housing to socioeconomic vulnerable groups. The problem today is that some building features, which are needed to estimate the renovation
Det finns många svårigheter med att tillverka livsmedelsprodukter som är emulsioner. Syftet med detta projekt var att utveckla en emulsion enligt krav som beställaren av produkten hade satt upp. En första utveckling av produkten skedde ungefär ett år tidigare, och den fortsatta utvecklingen baserades alltså på denna produkt. Det som hade blivit ett problem med den första utvecklade produkten var aIt is a difficult process to create a drinkable food product that is an emulsion. The aim with this project was to create one, containing ingredients on levels described by a customer. A product had been developed before, but resulted in a product that had viscosity that was too high, and the aim with this further development project was to keep the levels of the ingredients on a level according t

This study assess the climate consideration in building designs and aims to explore the extent of passive house performances in warm and humid climates. Previous studies have shown significant correlation between climate conscious building designs and meaningful improvements in indoor climate. The study uses a number of indices that are used to summarize indoor climatic parameters that describes h
The purpose of the thesis work is to investigate how contractors can involve environmental certification in the tender phase of a project and provide a basis for solutions to problems that may arise in environmental certification with CEEQUAL. CEEQUAL (The Civil Engineering Environmental Quality Assessment & Awards Scheme) is a certification system for assessing environmental issues and social

The aim of this study is to i
The year was 2012 and we had just started the School of Industrial Design at the Faculty of engineering in Lund and we had no or little idea of what we were to experience. Three years have now passed by and we feel more enlightened than ever before. What we feel is a place where the learning technique has not just given us skills to become great designers, but also made us aware of how to embrace
