Den byggnads- och bebyggelsehistoriska forskningen som berör Västmanlands läns agrara landskap är bristfällig och saknar systematisk dokumentation. Syftet med arbetet är att undersöka hur allmogens byggnader och gårdar var beskaffade i Västmanlands län under perioden 1840–1880. Genom att excerpera data ur syneprotokoll i laga skifteshandlingar och jämföra informationen med tidigare forskning om västmanländsk byggnadskultur, problematiserar vi den vedertagna bilden av länets agrara bebyggelse. Resultaten visar att 1800-talets agrara kul- turlandskap uppvisar en mångfacetterad bebyggelse, vad gäller både byggnads- material och gårdsstruktur. Slutsatserna gör gällande att nya byggnadstekniker och material som brädfodring, tegeltak och övervåningar förekommer tidigare på mangårdsbyggnaderna i länets odlingsbygd, för att sedan sprida sig snabbt till skogsbygden. Vidare påvisar undersökningen att månghussystemet var allmänt gällande fram till laga skiftes genomförande i Västmanlands län. / The historical research that concerns the built heritage in Västmanland Countys rural landscape is inadequate and lacks systematic documentation. The main aim of this study is to investigate how the buildings and farms of the common people were furnished in Västmanland County during the period 1840–1880. By extracting data from inspection records associated with the agricultural reform known as ‘laga skifte’ and comparing the information with previous research on Västmanland's building culture, we problematize the previous notions of the built heritage in the county's rural landscape. The results show that the cultural landscape of the 19th century exhibits a multifaceted settlement, in terms of both building materials and farm structure. The conclusions claim that new building techniques and materials such as exterior wall panelling, clay roof tiles and upper floors appear earlier on the residences in the county's farming areas, and then spread quickly to the forested areas. Furthermore, the investigation shows that the ‘multi-building system’ was generally valid until the implementation of ‘laga skifte’ in Västmanland County.

Denne opgave omhandler et almindeligt familiehus lokaliseret i Everöd, Sverige. I opgaven belyses detsbaggrund, nutid og fremtid. Husets byggetekniske historie og baggrund var under købet i November 2020mere eller mindre ukendt for køberen, men åbnede under den begyndende renovering straks op for et havaf spørgsmål. Huset viste sig at være ældre end antaget og bygget af et andet materiale end hvad ejendomsmægleren havde informeret om. Projektet udviklede sig til en kamp mellem konservering, renovering ellerombygning, tre koncepter som umiddelbart kan lede til 3 vidt forskellige resultater. Gennem mine valgtemetoder indenfor arkivforskning, bygningstekniske - og bygningsantikvariske undersøgelser samt medarkitektoniske teorier om bevaring og forandring, vurderer jeg i denne opgave husets historiske, kulturelle ogbevaringsværdige værdi. Med disse metoder tegner jeg et billede af husets historie, samt dets relevans til byenomkring det og menneskene som har boet i det og i fremtiden vil bo i det. Opgaven tager altså form som etmultidimensionelt projekt, hvor huset som fokuspunkt eksisterer i flere mulige versioner på samme tid, oghvor hver version har et unikt tilknytningspunkt som skal tages højde for og nænsomt analyseres. Opgaventager rede for hvordan vores umiddelbare statiske bygninger eksisterer i konstant forandring, fordi vi sommennesker også gør, og hvordan et hus som dette nemt kan ende på den forkerte side af debatten ombevaring af gamle huse. Sidst men ikke mindst, vil visualiseringer af både husets fortid og fremtid, skabe etbillede af hvordan arkitekturen er i konstant forandring, men trods det hensysnfuldt kan skabe en plads forlivet. / This Thesis deals with an ordinary house located in Everöd, Sweden. The thesis sheds light on its past, presentand future. The house’s construction and background during the purchase in November 2020 was more orless unknown to the buyer, but during the initial renovation, findings immediately opened up a sea ofquestions. The house turned out to be older than assumed and built of a different material than what the realestate agent had informed about. The project became a battle between conservation, renovation orremodeling, three concepts that can lead to three very different results. Through my chosen methods withinarchival research, construction technical - and construction antiquarian studies as well as with architecturaltheories of preservation and change, I assess the house’s historical, cultural and conservational value. Withthese methods, I paint a picture of the history of the house, as well as its relevance to the village around it andthe people who have lived in it and in the future will live in it. This thesis thus takes the form of a multidimensional project, where the house as a focal point exists in several possible versions at the same time, andwhere each version has a unique connection to its history, that must be taken into account and carefully analyzed. The thesis explains how our immediate static buildings exist in constant change because we as humansalso do, and how a house like this can easily end up on the wrong side of the debate over the preservation ofold houses. Last but not least, visualizations of both the house’s past and future will paint a picture of how thearchitecture is constantly changing, but despite that can thoughtfully create a place for life.
