Underlag för fördelaktig upphängning av kylvattenledningar i en äldre byggnad / Basis for advantageous suspension for water cooling pipes in an older buildingAndersson, Alexander, Bergman, Carl January 2014 (has links)
Arbetet redovisar möjligheterna att hänga upp tyngre vattenledningar i en äldre industrilokal där en äldre byggnadsstandard användes vid uppförandet. Ett flertal alternativ har tagits fram och där de mest lämpade har arbetats vidare genom att jämföra fördelar och nackdelar.

Bygga till ett våningsplan på befintligt flerbostadshus : Utredning av konstruktionstekniska och byggnadstekniska åtgärder / One floor extension on existing real estates : Examination of constructional measuresYoussef, Robert, Bchar, Paul January 2018 (has links)
Flerbostadshuset som studeras i rapporten är uppfört och dimensionerat med ett äldre regelverk och benämns BABS. Idag tillämpas Eurokod vid dimensioner av byggnadsverk. Skillnader i dessa regelverk skapar problem som förekommer vid en våningspåbyggnad. Dessa problem är både konstruktionstekniska och byggnadstekniska. Syftet med rapporten är att studera den mest effektiva varianten av våningspåbyggnad med avseende på bärighet, gällande krav, tilläggsåtgärder och effektivitet. Arbetet har utförts i samarbete med Sweco Structures för ett referensobjekt som har blivit modellerat i FEM för att få fram lasten vid den kritiska punkten i tre olika skeden. De tre olika skedena består av grundbyggnad, grundbyggnad med påbyggnad i betong och grundbyggnad med påbyggnad i trä. Erhållna resultat jämförs sedan med handberäkningar i enlighet med Eurokod och till viss del medhandberäkningar för BABS. Alla resultat jämförs sedan med maximal kapacitet på mark från den kritiska punkten för att kontrollera behovet av grundförstärkning. Referensobjektet undersöks även med avseende på de krav som gäller och jämförs med kraven från det äldre regelverket. Därefter analyseras eventuella tilläggsåtgärder som kan göras i samband med våningspåbyggnaden. Resultaten som erhölls var av stor betydelse för bestämmandet av typen av våningspåbyggnad. Detta eftersom resultaten bidrog till förståelse kring lastskillnader vid olika materialval och olika bestämmelser. Vid ett dåligt materialval kan lönsamhet och effektivitet äventyras. Vid oklarheter kring regelverk kan missförståelse förekomma och risk för feldimensionering uppstå. Resultaten påvisade att det mest effektiva valet av påbyggnad var påbyggnaden i trä. Detta eftersom att denna klarade av diverse krav. Påbyggnaden i betong bidrog med för stora krafter vilket skulle kunna äventyra markens stabillitet. Att förstärka marken är kostsamt och därmed drogs slutsatsen att trä var det mest effektiva materialvalet.

Synchrony of the Sublime: A Performer's Guide to Duke Ellington's Wordless Melodies for SopranoClark, Lisa M. 01 January 2017 (has links)
This monograph provides an in-depth examination of the background, musical, and performance issues related to Duke Ellington’s wordless melodies, as well as epigrammatic biographies of Ellington and three female vocalists whose voices he employed as instruments: Adelaide Hall, Kay Davis, and Alice Babs. As early as the twenties, Ellington innovatively used the voice as a wordless instrumental color—an idea he extended into both his secular and sacred works. His iconoclastic instrumentalization of the soprano voice in compositions such as “Creole Love Call”, “Minnehaha”, “Transblucency”, “On a Turquoise Cloud”, and “T.G.G.T.” merits consideration by scholars and performers alike; these artistically complex melodies offer valuable insights into Ellington’s organic and collaborative compositional process.
Although Ellington’s wordless melodies for the soprano voice have fallen on the periphery of discussions on twentieth-century American music, perhaps out of sheer obscurity, the need for alternative teaching and performance materials gives rise to a host of topics for further study regarding these pieces. Assimilating Ellington’s programmatic and mood pieces for the instrumentalized soprano voice into the canon of chamber repertoire opens a new arena of scholarly and artistic endeavor for the trained singer. Therefore, central to this study are the following considerations: context, pedagogical challenges (range, tessitura, vowels, phrase length, etc.) nature of accompaniment and instrumentation, form, and the nature of Ellington’s vocal writing as it pertains to the wordless obbligato and concert works featuring the wordless voice including, “Minnehaha,” “Transblucency,” “On A Turquoise Cloud,” and “T.G.T.T.” aka “Too Good To Title.”
This study evaluates Ellington’s technique of casting the wordless female voice in unique musical contexts via musical analysis, as well as pedagogical and interpretive assessments of selected Ellington pieces,. The resultant amalgam of musical identities, both instrumental and vocal, fostered creative polyphony and epitomized the coined “Ellington Effect.” The following analysis centers on a chronological survey of Ellington’s wordless melodies performed and recorded by Adelaide Hall, Kay Davis, and Alice Babs. The goal of this project is to present a study in historical context and significance, style, device, and pedagogical/performance considerations of those works that employ the flexibility, technique, and aural training of the studied singer with instrumental jazz idioms in a cross-genre context.

The effectiveness of senior students as tutor assistants in the English special project for academic development at UWCWentzel, Zurina January 1992 (has links)
Magister Educationis - MEd / Since the inception of the University in 1960 under the Apartheid regime and up until a few years ago Afrikaans had dominated both as educational and as communication medium. However, political change - at the University and in South Africa - has brought about a change in language patterns. According to the HSRC Work Committee on Languages and Language Instruction (1981), a high percentage (40%) of
Afrikaans-speaking people classified as coloured and living in the Cape Peninsula choose English as the medium of instruction and also regard it as the most important language to be learnt at schools (also 40%). As a result of this, and the enrolment of a large percentage of Xhosa speaking students, who generally prefer English to Afrikaans as an educational medium, English has become the language most commonly used both inside and outside the classroom. The homogeneity of preference has, however, not been matched by mastery of the language. For approximately 70% of all first-year students English is a second or even a third language. Though University entry is based on at least ten years of the study of English, standards of proficiency differ quite considerably as a result of inequalities in education. Because students need to improve their level of English proficiency I investigated the effectiveness of using senior students as tutor assistants in an academic development programme, the English Special Project, at UWC. This study aims at revealing that the tutor assistantships in the English Special Project can alleviate problems that occur with annual increases in student numbers under certain conditions. These are that: 1 prospective tutor assistants undergo proper tutor assistant training; 2 tutor assistants are committed to the course of academic development; 3 tutor assistants have the time available that is necessary for the task. In Chapter 1 give an insight into what this study is about, the reasons for conducting it and what my personal involvement with the ESP has been. In Chapter 2 I review some of the overseas and local literature on TA systems. In Chapter 3 I describe a case-study to evaluate the success of the TA system in the ESP with reference to academic development. I emphasize the intensive, individual care of and attention to first-year students. In an attempt to address the problem, the effectiveness of senior students as tutor assistants to assist in tutorial sessions is described. In Chapter 4 I discuss the value of TA intervention in the ESP at personal and social levels. Chapter 5 contains the general conclusions and my recommendations to improve the ESP.
