Målet med examensarbetet var att kontrollera noggrannheten i de handberäknade diagrammen för kalkcementpelarförstärkning och hur de står sig mot dagens beräkningar i programmet Slope/W. Diagrammen skall även digitaliseras för att underlätta översiktlig dimensionering av kalkcementpelarförstärkning.Examensarbetet har utförts genom att fyra utvalda exempel valts ut från det handberäknade diagrammet, sedan har datorberäkningar gjorts i programmet Slope/W för att kontrollera noggrannheten och den procentuella skillnaden mellan metoderna. Utöver jämförelsen av c-analyserna och digitaliseringen av det, har ett översiktligt diagram för att underlätta beräkningar av kalkcementpelarförstärkning för c?-analys skapats. Detta har skapats som komplement till det handberäknade diagrammet och kan användas vid översiktlig dimensionering av kalkcementpelarförstärkning.

Big investments in information technology have been made to ensure efficiency and quality within organisations in health care. This has led to high requirements in documentation and resulted in an increase in administration which gradually more often is done by nurses and doctors. A major problem is that it is difficult to gain access to the information recorded in all the different systems, which is their objective. This causes double documentation instead of being a support in follow-up performance.

This text answers the questions how do we define what a campus is, how the concept of the campus came to exist and how it is used today, and how the Blekinge Institute of Technology (BTH) campus can be designed according to site conditions and the conclusions drawn from case studies at Chalmers University of Technology and Karlstad University. The purpose of the case studies is to gain insight into their campuses advantages and disadvantages. This finally results in an interpretation of how the Blekinge Institute of Technology campus can be planned. A campus is the area of land on which a college or university and its surrounding buildings resides on. Campus as a concept meant a field at first, it later evolved at American universities due to their design of college campuses.
