Purpose: the differences between projection and actual results are very common in most of the construction projects. The problems that seem to be most common appears in projection, communication, planning and documents but there are as well smaller areas to find in the study. The aim of the study is to investigate what differences can be found between the theoretical and actual time schedule and the problems that can appear in the construction industry. Method: The study is based on a literature study, two interviews and two case studies. The literature study gives an understanding of what has to be in consideration when planning a project. Detailed information about all the aspects gives a good base for the study. Two people that works with building planning were interviewed to give some better insight. First some general questions about building planning were asked to give a better understanding of the subject. Then questions were asked about the specific projects and what results they had. The case studies consist of two projects, one of them being “Nationalmuseet” and the other “Kulturhuset Stadsteatern”. Documentation about the projects were examined to evaluate the procedure and outcome. The projects were used to compare with the results from the interviews to see if there was any connection. Results: the project is presented by responses from both of the preformed interviews. Respondents describes the challenges with the design process and what kind of problems that often occurs during projects. The questions are asked regarding their design process and thoughts about time pressure, the use of programs as well as preferred forms of contracting. The interviews also provide an insight into how experience feedback and improvements addressed within the company. Conclusions: from the own study, most conclusions could be drawn regarding which factors influences the projection, what are the differences between the theoretical and actual result and how these differences can be reduced. With the help of the interview study, conclusions could be made based on experience and knowledge of which problem areas are common for construction industry at present.
