  1. 11. Automated Construction- Reinforcement : Lifting Prefabricated Reinforcement Cages

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Markus Pettersson; Andreas Larsson; [2021]
    Keywords : Tied rebar cage lift; Tied connection; Connecting rebars; Finite Element Modeling; Geometric to numerical model; Integration CAD and CAE; Lyft av najad armeringskorg; Najad knutpunkt; Sammanfogning av armering; Finita Element modellering; Geometrisk till numeriskmodell; Integration mellan CAD och CAE;

    Abstract : The construction industry is moving towards an increasingly industrial production and one step towards this is to use prefabricated rebar cages. A new concept is being tested where tied rebar cages are produced on the construction site by industrial robots. READ MORE

  3. 12. Full life cycle assessment of a cross laminated timber modular building in Sweden

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Ahmad Al-Najjar; [2021]
    Keywords : LCA; Life cycle assessment; CLT; a cross-laminated timber modular building; Prefabricated modules; Environmental impact; Greenhouse gases.; LCA; Livscykelbedömning; KL-trä; korslaminerad träbyggnad; Prefabricerade moduler; Miljöpåverkan; Växthusgaser.;

    Abstract : Building industry contributes to massive amounts of harmful emissions. This trend will continue to rise unless appropriate measures are taken. This master thesis aims to calculate the environmental impact during the whole life time of a prefabricated cross-laminated timber (CLT) modular building. READ MORE

  4. 13. Concrete floor : Design of prefabricated pre-stressed hollow core slabs with verification through PRE-Stress and comparison with site-cast slab

    University essay from KTH/Byggteknik och design

    Author : Alexander Eriksson; Veronica Flykt; [2020]
    Keywords : Pre-stressed hollow core slab; site-cast slab; design; concrete; Förspända håldäcksplattor; platsgjutet bjälklag; dimensionering; betong;

    Abstract : The most common prefabricated concrete slabs are hollow core slabs, which are usually pre-tensioned. How to design these parts is not compiled today in a manual where it is clear how this is done, this knowledge is generally classified as expert knowledge. READ MORE

  5. 14. The influence of the prefabricated rate on the environmental performance of buildings in a life cycle perspective

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Shaozhe Wang; [2020]
    Keywords : Life cycle assessment; Prefabricated buildings; Prefabricated rate; Building environmental impacts;

    Abstract : As the construction sector has caused significant environmental impacts, Sweden has made efforts to develop prefabricated buildings by increasing their prefabricated rates. In a life cycle perspective, this thesis examines how the overall environmental impacts during the construction processes are influenced when the prefabricated rate increases. READ MORE

  6. 15. Temperature distribution in air tight cavities of steel framed modular buildings when exposed to fire

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Elin Bergroth; Greta Torstensson; [2019]
    Keywords : Cavities; fire furnace; fire test; modular building; steel; TASEF; Brandugn; brandtest; hålrum; modulbyggnader; stål; TASEF;

    Abstract : A common way to construct large buildings is by assemble prefabricated modules around a load bearing steel construction. However, if a fire occurs these buildings can be subject to a rapid fire spread due to its cellular nature. READ MORE
