Då klimatfrågan blir större och viktigare än någonsin är det viktigt att alla olika aktörer tar sitt ansvar och aktivt arbetar för ett bättre klimat. Byggsektorn har ett stort ansvar i denna fråga och något som kan minska utsläppen är just att minska energibehovet i byggnader. Genom att reducera köldbryggorna minskas även andelen energi som behövs för att värma upp en byggnad. Det är dock inte endAs the climate issue becomes more significant and critical than ever, it is essential that all different actors assume their responsibilities and actively work for a better climate. The construction sector has a great responsibility on this issue, and something that can reduce emissions is to reduce energy consumption in buildings. By reducing the thermal bridges, the proportion of energy needed t

Polyurethane is a widely used polymer with a lot of different applications due to its versatility and often resilient properties. The polymeris often prepared as a two component system consisting of polyols and isocyanates and can be cured at relatively low temperatures. Even though the formed polymer is hazardless the isocyanate used in the manufacture is dangerous in itself, but even more so is

Urbaniseringen innebär att det blir mer och mer hårdgjorda ytor i städer, vilket ökar belastningen på dagvattennätet. Vidare så innebär klimatförändringarna ytterligare utmaningar då nederbörden i Sverige antas öka. För att hantera detta föreslås hållbara dagvattenlösningar varav gröna tak kan vara en del. Detta skapar ett behov att på ett enkelt sätt modellera avrinningen från gröna tak. I detta The increasing urbanization means there are more and more impermeable surfaces in cities. This is straining the capacity of the stormwater network. Furthermore, climate change is assumed to bring about more precipitation in Sweden in the future. In order to deal with these challenges a sustainable approach to stormwater management is needed. Green roofs can be one part of the solution. This create

Vi har intresserat oss för kön som konstruktion på HVB-hem som jobbar med tonåringar på uppdrag av socialtjänsten. Vi har undersökt hur kön framställs i HVB hemmen utifrån deras beskrivning av insatser för enkönad och samkönad. Vi har använt oss av 15 HVB-hems hemsidor och deras tillstånd utfärdade från IVO fördelad utifrån samkönad och enkönad. Med det har vi fördjupat oss i hur görandet av kön pWe were interested in gender as a construction at out-of-home cares working with adolescents on behalf of the social services. We wanted to investigate how gender is presented in out-of-homes care based on their own description of efforts for mixed-sex and same-sex adolescents. We have used the websites of 15 out-of-home cares and their permits issued by Health and Care Inspection Authority (IVO)

"My memories from Algiers - Between power and trust in Algiers' diplomatic spaces during Henric Gottfrid Brandel's accession to the consular office 1765-1768." In 1764, Henric Gottfrid Brandel was appointed consular secretary to the Swedish consul in Algiers. He would remain as secretary until late 1765 and early 1766, when he was appointed as temporary consul by the then current

Introduction and aim: From a sustainable supply chain standpoint, concern for workers' safety on the job is essential. Driving safety is vital since accidents in the trucking industry often result in the deaths of both truck drivers and other road users. We found a potential correlation between nicotine usage and driving safety risk in the literature. Sleep quality also appears to play a medi

Delivery lead time (DLT) is seen as one of the most important service factors affecting the consumers willingness to fulfill a purchase within online retailing (Esperet al., 2003). The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the effect variations in the offered DLT have on customer conversion rate within e-commerce. This is done by analyzing historical online customer demand data from a case comp

The purpose of this master thesis in practical theology is to investigate the reasons for choices of hymns made by parents baptising their children in the Church of Sweden. From earlier data on baptisms and hymns we do know which hymns are most commonly chosen, but no one to date has interviewed parents on their choices. The method used is semi structured interviews of eleven parents whose childre

Småhus avser friliggande en- och tvåbostadshus samt par-, rad- och kedjehus. Småhusbostäder är vanligt förekommande i Sverige men de senaste åren har nybyggnationen av dessa bostäder legat på en oförändrad nivå samtidigt som antalet nybyggda bostäder i flerbostadshus ökat kraftigt. Andelen nybyggda småhus har således minskat de senaste åren och bakgrunden för arbetet har därför varit att besvara fSingle-family housing is a relatively common type of housing in Sweden. Even though the demand for this type of housing is higher than the supply, the share of new construction is decreasing in favor of multi-family housing. There has been a significant increase in new housing construction as of late, however the amount of new single-family housing has remained constant. The purpose of this paper

The construction industry accounts for a large proportion of the world’s total anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases, CO2 among others. As a part of the effort to combat this are environmental certifications which have become increasingly more numerous and more frequent in use. This is partly because consumers have become more environmentally aware and motivated to pay more for products and

The current rules concerning the right to take industrial action were established in the early 1900s and are still an issue governed by the labour market organizations. In Sweden, the right to take industrial action is protected by constitutional law, which also includes sympathy actions. Limitations can only be made by law or particular agreements. In order to adapt to the current conditions, neg

I föreliggande uppsats analyseras samt jämförs de arbetsrättsliga regler vilka reglerar förhållandet mellan arbets- och familjelivet i Sverige och Danmark. Två centrala frågor uppsatsen behandlar är vilka rättsliga förutsättningar det finns för arbetstagare att vara föräldraledig och vilket skydd det finns mot att missgynnas i arbetslivet på grund av framtida, föreliggande eller nyttjad föräldraleA comparative study of law regarding parental leave and prohibition of less favourable treatment of workers associated with parental leave in Sweden and Denmark.

Bygg- och fastighetsbranschen utgör i dagsläget en betydande andel av Sveriges naturresursutvinning samt klimatpåverkan, där påverkan från traditionella stommar av betong och stål länge har dominerat. Klimatintensiva processer såsom cement- och stålproduktion är bidragande faktorer till att branschen är i behov av en hållbar och cirkulär omställning. Återbruk och cirkulärt byggande erbjuder hållbaToday, the construction and real estate industry accounts for a sizable portion of the market´s material consumption and climate impact, with traditional structural materials such as concrete and steel long dominated. Processes such as cement and steel production contribute to the industry´s need for a sustainable transition and circular transition. Reuse and circular construction offer sustainabl

Rapid urban growth is making cities hotter, a trend further exacerbated by climate change. Urban green spaces (UGS) are commonly used as nature-based solutions to reduce heat, but there are gaps in understanding how cooling effects vary across climate zones. Using satellite data from 2021 to 2024, we examined urban heat and UGS patterns during the hot season across four Ethiopian cities with diffe

I entreprenadprojekt är förändringar under kontraktstiden ofta nödvändiga till följd av projektens tekniska komplexitet, långa genomförandetid och de många osäkerhetsmoment som präglar bygg- och anläggningsarbeten. Det är sällan möjligt att i förväg förutse alla arbeten som kommer att behöva utföras. För att hantera behovet av flexibilitet innehåller standardavtalet AB 04 särskilda bestämmelser omIn construction projects, changes during the contract period are often necessary due to the technical complexity of the projects, their long duration, and the numerous uncertainties inherent in construction work. Foreseeing all the work that will need to be carried out is rarely possible. To accommodate the need for flexibility, the standard agreement General Conditions of Contract for Building an
