  1. 16. Deriving and mitigating the upfront carbon of a large-scale industrial project

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Hugo Jennehov; Nils Olofsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Upfront carbon; Embodied carbon; Construction emissions; Mitigation strategies; Life Cycle Assessment; LCA; Industrial facilities; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : For a long time, the construction and building industries have focused on increasing the efficiency of the built environment and reducing the emissions during the operations of buildings. As a consequence of the decreased operational emissions, the share of so-called embodied and upfront carbon has increased. READ MORE

  3. 17. Sustainable concrete bridges : An investigation of possible measures to reduce the climate impact

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand

    Author : Daniel Hugh; [2022]
    Keywords : Bridges; CO2; emission; cement; reinforcement; SCM; sustainability.;

    Abstract : The need of building new bridges is always existing in relation with the increase of infrastructureand transport needs. Bridge constructions have traditionally been associated with highconsumption of resources and large greenhouse gas emissions. READ MORE

    Abstract : With a major share of the negative environmental impacts deriving from construction and its waste, ways to reduce the material and energy use in this sector have been the focus of studies for decades. Reuse of building elements and materials is gaining traction with researchers, architects, developers and real estate owners. READ MORE

  6. 20. A comparative evaluation of hydrostatic pressure and buckling of a large cylindrical steel tank designed according to EN14015 and according to the Eurocodes

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Musole Kambita; [2022]
    Keywords : Cylindrical steel tanks; yield strength; carbon steel; high strength steel; design load; buckling; stiffening rings; Finite Element Method FEM ; Linear Elastic Bifurcation LBA ; and Geometrically and Materially Nonlinear Analysis with Imperfections GMNIA .;

    Abstract : Above ground steel storage tanks are used worldwide for the storage of various liquids. EN 14015:2005, which has traditionally been used to design the tanks, does not necessarily fulfil the requirements of the Swedish Building Code. READ MORE
