Acquiring a former station building can mean that the property owners must familiarize themselves with a lot of planning and building regulations. After the new Planning and Building Act code into force in 2011, the responsibility lie on the developer to ensure laws and regulations. Based on the regulatory framework that is available occurs sometimes balance issues, between care requirements and building codes. The station building in Ormaryd was acquired in 2009 by two individuals who intended to accommodate office and retail space in the building. In doing so a new local plan of the area was established, including regulations on how the building could be used. By including road safety and noise, the risk was not considered appropriate to use the station building for housing.

This paper constitutes graduate work at the Depart-ment of Urban and Rural Development at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences. In this paper the urban structure of the million program suburb Husby in Stockholm is examined and what effect this structure has on social life in the area. The main objective of the study has been to, with the help of morphological analyses, examine how to create meeting places and make the Husby Park more accessiblefor the inhabitants in Husby. There has been a selection of analyses to ensure that Husby?s spatial relationship with surrounding suburbs as well as local spaces in the Husby Park is described.

Hur kan vi planera och argumentera för en mer integrerad och intensiv urban grönska i våra allt tätare städer? Vilken viktig roll spelar grönskan i förhållande till dess strukturer, funktioner och upplevelsevärden för stadsmänniskan? Vilka möjligheter ryms inom dagens stadsplanering för att synliggöra och maximera också den täta stadens småskaliga och med bebyggelsen socialt och funktionellt komplext sammanvävda grönskor? I ett personligt teoretiskt reflekterande utifrån relevant litteratur undersöks möjligheter och begrepp i relation till en grönare urbanitet. Syftet är att lyfta fram behovet av en utökad och mer nyanserad vokabulär som bättre kan motsvara morgondagens behov av att beskriva och planera för ett finmaskigare och småskaligare grönt nätverk också inne i den täta staden. De i den teoretiska reflektionen funna strukturella, multifunktionella och upplevelseladdade gröna begreppen prövas därefter explorativt i en platsstudie med praktiska illustrationer, analyser och karteringar för området Varvsstaden, Malmö. Som resultat nyanseras, vidgas, urbaniseras, funktionaliseras, laddas, systematiseras och omstruktureras innebörden av begreppet grön urbanitet..

Uppsatsen är uppdelad i fyra avsnitt innehållande bakgrund, planförutsättningar, analys och planförslag. Målet är att planera för en utbyggnation av Åkarp genom ett traditionellt mönster av befintliga byggnader och vägar samt att utnyttja den kommunala marken i Åkarp för att bygga ett bostadsområde. Planförslaget har kallats Åkersvy för att det byggs på en åker samt att omgivningen har en vacker vy åt det skånska landskapet. Åkersvy kommer att byggas ut som en naturlig fortsättning av Åkarp. I planförslaget används Åkarps traditionella väg- och byggnadsmönster sedan trettio år som en utgångspunkt. Förslaget kommer att baseras på en genomgående huvudgata med matargator på båda sidor där trafikförsörjning sker till de olika områdena.

Abstract Considering the social dimension of sustainable development this thesis focuses on the qualities of life and how the environmental qualities that the inhabitants value can be incorporated in the physical planning of the municipality. The thesis deals with the problems that occur when the physical planning, whit its focus on the environmental aspects, also needs to consider peoples opinions, that springs from the individual experience of the place. The municipality of Mark, where this thesis takes its place, is characterised by the countryside landscape. Mark is situated in the western part of Sweden close to Göteborg, Borås and Varberg. The commuting is extensive and the demand for dwellings in the municipality is increasing. Those who strive to live in the municipality have a conception of what life on the countryside means and of which environmental qualities they want to assimilate.

The Swedish National Rail Administration has changed in the past decade, from its origin after a less dramatic separation from the Swedish State Railways to becoming an authority with its own identity. Today the National Rail Administration is a large organisation with several different departments, each with its own unique function. To operate train services the railway needs to be ?in shape?, leading to a need for maintenance, reinvestments and new investments. For this purpose, the National Rail Administration carries out public procurement where contractors, who are able to perform maintenance and new construction, submit tenders.

In this report the situation for cyclists on 2+1-roads is analysed and studied. Theseroads are often the old 13-meter roads that have been changed into 2+1 to increasethe security. Two road sections outside Motala in Sweden has been deep studiedand analysed. The different parts in the planning process show how the progressgoes. To begin with the change should be within the old 13 meters but after thepilot study was circulated for comments the result became a broadening to 13,75and 14,00 meters.

Arbetet handlar om hur rummet konstrueras genom diskurs och hur olika rumskonstruktioner får betydelse för det fysiska rummet, hur dessa rumskontruktioner kan exkludera och inkludera människor i våra fysiska miljöer. Problemet undersöks genom diksursanalys av tidningen Göteborgs-posten och samrådsyttranden angående detaljplaneförslag för Skeppsbron i Göteborg eftersom det är genom diskurser av sådana slag rum får betydelse. Resultatet av undersökningen är att rum aldrig kan vara helt privata eller offentliga och därmed alltid exkluderande vilket har att göra med att det alltid finns en dominerande grupp som kan sägas vinna den diskursiva kampen om rummets mening och betydlse. Detta får också betydelse för konkret fysisk planering och det fysiska rummet vilket exkluderar människor som inte "passar in" på ett eller annat sätt i den aktuella rumskonstruktionen. .

It may seem obvious that the urban space in our northern cities should be design to function and inspire throughout the whole year. This is not always the case. The urban space is often designed on a summer basis and the winter is regarded more as a problem then a resource and its potential remain unused. I have in this master thesis studied the impact of the winter on people and spaces and ponder on how to design functional and attractive places for winter. The project ends in a design concept for Broparken in Umeå on the theme "everyday winter day". The work with this thesis has given me, as a landscape architect, valuable experiences and filled a gap of knowledge that I had in this subject. I hope that this thesis can inspire Umeå kommun and others who are interested in how northern cities can benefit by its climate and develop towards a more complete city. The thesis begins with a chapter that present the subject from four different perspectives.

This is a 20 points graduation thesis, performed at the Department of Urban and Rural Development at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences in Uppsala. The main aim of this thesis is to examine what it is like to combine studying with working and starting your own company. Furthermore, I want to be able to convey this knowledge to others. An important part of being a landscape architect is informing people, and making rather abstract issues tangible. The word 'entrepreneur' is originally French. Today, we think of entrepreneurs, or contractors, as energetic people, who dare to try new ideas. There are many reasons why people start their own company, but the most common ones are the wish to fulfil oneself and to be able to plan one's own time.

We have seen a revolution in the area of communication on a worldwide scale. We begin talking about terms as globalisation, integration and deregulation of the financial market. Companies have been tax planning for decades, the questions is if Internet has made an increase of companies than uses tax planning and which roll Internet plays. It is hard to really pinpoint all the effects of the Internet because of the relatively new area of research. This thesis will take various factors under study such as globalisation, development of the offshore industry and the fight against harmful taxation by the OECD and other organisations in order to describe the effects of Internet.

This thesis examines a project that has been conducted at a software development company. The aim is to investigate which problems firms of this kind faces performing projects. We choose a theoretical frame consisting of a modern view on how to manage projects. The view argues that the management of each project has to be adapted to the situation at hand. This theory is divided into two separate streams of reasoning; one emphasize learning, delegation of responsibility and flexibility, while the other argues for control, time planning and the importance of keeping to the plans.When we compare the theories to the case we draw three main conclusions: A thorough phase of investigation is required to produce the necessary planning documents.

Often, the green is handled as an opposite to the built, but if it could be seen as a part of the built and the society, the planning will be easier to handle. The thesis work wants to create a method that treats villages in an analytic way in a context; with green, blur, grey and all the other colors that together are the completeness.This master's thesis is made to be used as foundation in detail plannng in the municipality of Örkelljunga. Target audience is on one hand those who work with planning and green matters in Örkelljunga municipality, but also other planners who work with landscape.Literature in the field of green city planning has been studied and 30 methods for analysis have been valued. The method for analysis that has been used in this work is a merging of ten different methods and has included literature studies, sketches, interviews and work on spot. The ten methods are consciously chosen to together make one comprehensive and true image of the village, as far as it is possible.
