Uppsatsen handlar om hur en äldre byggnad av torp-liknande slag kan renoveras till att bli enbyggnad av modern standard. Detta görs genom att stegvis gå igenom de delar som behöveruppdateras och ge exempel på hur de kan förbättras för att nå upp till en modern standard.Samtidigt har även två modeller gjorts. En i ?Revit Structure? över byggnadens konstruktion,men även en i ?Revit Architecture? där en möjlig ny planlösning ges. Till slut mynnar detta uti ett förlag till ny planlösning som innehåller alla de beståndsdelar som behövs för att skapa enmodern bostad.

Syftet med denna studie var att analysera och beskriva lärare i Idrott och hälsas erfarenheter och upplevelser av att använda läxor med hjälp av bland annat modern teknik i ämnet Idrott och hälsa. 8 stycken verksamma lärare i Idrott och hälsa intervjuades med hjälp av kvalitativa intervjuer. I resultatet framkom att lärarna delvis hade liknande erfarenheter av att använda läxor och modern teknik i sin undervisning, jämfört med beskrivningar i tidigare forskning. Vissa lärare använde läxor i sin undervisning, andra inte. Resultatet i denna studie uppvisar en paradox: de flesta av lärarna i önskade att skolan blev läxfri, fast de i nuläget själva använde sig av läxor exempelvis i syfte att utöka ämnestiden.

This is a study about residential segregation in Malmö. The aim is to highlight the segregation that is taking place in the city as a whole. I therefore focus on two residential areas in Malmö which are not often mentioned when speaking about segregation; Västra Innerstaden and Limhamn-Bunkeflo. I present different theories on housing segregation and discuss them in relation to these specific residential areas. I investigate how the socio-economic and ethnic characteristics of the inhabitants in these residential areas are connected to Malmö being a segregated city.

The bulk of the research within the field of media and communication is concentrated at theforefront of development, studies focus on modern companies and modern communication.However, many people work in the industry, where the conditions for communication are partly different. The aim of this study is to explore the possibilities for internal communication that the employees have at the base industrial company of Billerud Gruvön, Sweden. How important do they feel that communication is? Can the internal communication within Gruvön be described as modern, where dialogue between the staff is possible, or as orders from the top down to the bottom of the hierarchal structure?These are our research questions:Which channels are used for communication within Gruvön, and how are they used?How important do the employees deem the internal communication to be?Can the communication within a hierarchal industrial company such as Gruvön be described as modern, where dialogue is at the center, or does the communication consist basically on orders from the top down to the bottom of the chain?Our research is based on the following theories: Communication, Organizational communication, Internal communication and Organizational culture. We have looked to earlier research such as the doctorates of Simonsson (2002) and Johansson (2003) to further our understanding.The methods used are interviews with operators, middle management and the informationofficer at Gruvön.

Kedjor som äger sina egna butiker har en mer centraliserad styrning är butiker som ägs av handlare men ändå tillhör en kedja. De väletablerade butikskedjorna ICA, Coop och Axfood har en något mer modern styrning än de nyetablerade lågprisbutikerna Netto och Lidl. Detta beror främst på att modern styrning utgår från att lyssna mer på kunden vilket inte lågpriskedjorna är intresserade av då de istället har som strategi att lära kunderna att handla lågpris..

Background: In newspaper articles, we can nowadays read headlines as"Stop the robbing!"and"They pay extra tax through rent". A column in Göteborgsposten describes enormous amounts of money, pouring between municipal companies. Numerous of local newspapers have started to pay attention to their municipal companies and the transfer of profits from municipal housing enterprises and electric power companies. What are upsetting these journalists then? Both Hyresgästföreningen (The Swedish tenants? association) and Boverket (The Swedish National Housing Board) indicate that the fiscal purpose of transactions within the group no longer is primary for municipalities.

Detta arbete diskuterar och belyser hur utvecklingen av mineralogiskanalysmetodik har sett ut genom att tillämpa samtbeskriva ett urval av både klassisk och modern metodik. Grundentill arbetet är en stensamling som byggts upp av HolgerJensen och beskrivits av hans son Rolf Jensen på 1940-talet.Den nya förteckningen som sammanställts jämförs med dengamla som Rolf gjorde. Den enda metoden som inte tillämpas ärgoniometri, vilken dock beskrivs på grund av dess historiskabetydelse i utvecklingen av kristallmorfologin. Klassisk metodikoch egenskaper som beskrivs och har tillämpats är exempelvisblåsrörsanalys, hårdhetstestning, streckfärg, spaltning ochbrott. Bland modern metodik valdes malmmikroskopi, röntgendiffraktion,elektronmikrosondanalys och Ramanspektroskopi.Tidigt under arbetets gång noterades att erfarenhet krävs oberoendemetodik för att få korrekt resultat och att det kommer dröjalänge innan de klassiska metoderna blir förlegade.

This report tries to discuss the concept of social sustainability; what it means and how residential development can be made more socially sustainable. This is done by interviewing several and various representatives in JM AB, the municipality of Uppsala and residents of Åriket to explore how JM AB as a housing developer and the municipality are working with issues regarding social sustainability and what the residents in one of the new housing projects themselves think of these issues. The result of these interviews will be compared and analyzed with the prospect of finding common variables and hopefully ways of improvement.This will result in our own recommendations of areas of improvement either by broad initiatives or specific actions to increase the social sustainability. Areas such as meeting places, sustainable functions and joint efforts between different parties. During the work on the report we come in contact with several other areas of interest that we are not able to process ourselves and therefore recommend them for future studies..

The controversial phenomenon of ?seeker-oriented? megachurches are currently transforming the American religious landscape. These churches, some housing up to 30,000 worshippers every week, are targeting religious seekers as their primary objective. Their success in attracting and converting those who usually wouldn?t even think of attending church can in large parts be explained by changes in liturgy, the removal of visible theological discussion and use of shopping mall styled buildings, designed to make the religious seeker feel like home.

How is communication between the professional categories working out?The report also contains a background with a brief Swedish history in care of older people.

När en ny plattrambro byggs påverkas miljön på ett negativt sätt, detta eftersom den kräver stora mängder betong och armeringsstål. En av betongens huvudsubstanser är cement som står för en betydande del av det globala koldioxidutsläppet. Även stålet släpper ut en stor mängd koldioxid vid tillverkning.Plattrambroar dimensioneras ofta efter L100 vilket innebär en förväntad livslängd på 120 år. Men med dagens utförande på plattrambroar är det svårt att uppnå den förväntade livslängden då broarnas beläggning och kantbalkar slits sönder efter 30-40år.Denna rapport tar upp nya lösningar på plattrambrons konstruktion där modern injekteringsbetong kommer att användas istället för den konventionella anläggningsbetong som idag används för att bygga plattrambroar. Den moderna injekteringsbetongen har många fördelar jämfört med en konventionell anläggningsbetong.

In Sweden, there has been a continuous increase in the volume of housing construction for dairy cattle. Since 2004, the number of new, rebuilt and extended dairy cow houses undergoing preliminary inspection by the authorities has grown. The livestock farms have mostly focused on cow units instead of calf and heifer sheds; which has led to a need for information in this area. The purpose of the study was to improve advisors? knowledge about bovine building construction and function; to enable them to provide more qualified advice to conventional and organic milk producers who sustain larger herds.
