The handling of construction logistics around building materials has long been a major problem that has been noticed since 1960. The handling of construction logistics is important as they have a major impact on costs and customer service. There is a lot of work on a small area of building a skyscraper that includes many risky elements and factors that affect production speed and schedule. In Gothenburg, a skyscraper will emerge from the city, with its 245m and 73 floors, which will be a building like no other in the country. A complex comprehensive construction project which leads to a complex logistics solution with good planning of the logistics flow. The purpose of this degree project is to map the management of the construction logistics and to review how the planning of the factors that will guide the logistics of the construction project will look. In order to respond to the purpose of the study, a case study has been made based on interviews of three key people within the Karlatornet project. Site visits have been made to get a real picture of the Karlatornet project. During the visit, documents and pictures were received regarding the logistics of the project. The result shows that careful and early planning of the construction logistics reduces waste and increases the flow efficiency for a construction project like Karlatornet. Gathering enough knowledge from similar projects around the world has led Serneke to produce a logistics appendix that serves as a functional description for how logistics should be handled at Karlatornet. This logistics appendix acts as a contract document where all parties involved in the project must work according to the logistics appendix, which is a standardized working method for logistics management. Through various tools such as Myloc, BIM and LEAN's production management philosophy, the project has been able to achieve an efficient logistic solution that fits Karlatornet.
