<p>The construction industries are relatively conservative type of business that takes a long</p><p>time to adjust for new methods and embrace new ideas. It dose not matter if the new</p><p>method seems to be an improved method as long as it is new and untried. Construction</p><p>companies are reluctant to change form a longtime working method to a relatively</p><p>unknown method.</p><p>The purpose with our report is to perform an evaluation of BeWi construction method.</p><p>Our goal are to present the generally opinion about BeWi from the contractors that has</p><p>been in contact/worked with the method. We also want to know from the contractor’s</p><p>point of view if BeWi and the method measure up to the standards that are presented by</p><p>BeWi and if they believe that improvements need to be done.</p><p>Our progress up to the final report has consisted of three parts</p><p>[1]Field studies</p><p>[2]Interviews</p><p>[3]Literary studies</p><p>We started out with field studies where we took notes and observed all the included</p><p>working phases on the construction site when using the BeWi method. Also during our</p><p>field studies we ourselves tried working with the method for a more close experience of</p><p>the work environment.</p><p>As conclusion we can say that BeWi construction method undeniable are an easy- going</p><p>and working method that improves the work environment for the construction workers</p><p>and also has the potential that can lead to better results.</p><p>The system is based on a new kind of method which can lead to complications during the</p><p>first times working with it, but the commissioning period relatively short. From an</p><p>economical point of view the material costs are higher than a regular wooden foundation</p><p>but we believe that you can compensate this in the long run with the low energy costs that</p><p>this system gives.</p>
