Post-extraction matters; re-programming Smöjen limestone quarry through landscape-based design

With the disused quarry at Smöjen, Gotland as a context, this thesis asks the
question How can architects take responsibility for the use of materials when
re-programming post-industrial landscapes? The thesis aims at highlighting
the necessity of conscious use of materials by utilizing the landscape. The
argument is being made that the physical limitations that come with a landscape-based
design could be formulated as a creative framework that opens up
for interesting solutions while avoiding depletion of recourses.
As a result of mining natural resources on an ever-increasing scale, the
amount of extraction sites have multiplied. Today, there are rules and guidelines
for the rehabilitation of quarries, but quarries from before the 1970s have
not been subject to rehabilitation in the same way. The harsh landscape alterations
of dis-used quarries make the landscape-rehabilitation process slow,
but the same barren landscape with its traces from past lives have proven to
attract an increasing number of visitors. Smöjen is subject to this increasing
tourism meanwhile in need of rehabilitation to prevent potential safety hazards.
Regionally, Smöjen is defined as an area of development in the larger context
of the Gotland archipelago.
The thesis proposes an intervention at Smöjen limestone quarry, focusing on
three support structures for information, visits and accommodation, using the
existing landscape and material remains as a design framework. Literature research,
archive visits and extensive site explorations have informed the design
proposal. In addition, an extension of the hiking trail S:t Olofsleden is proposed,
adding context to Smöjen and other already established visitor destinations
along the north-east coast.
The thesis focuses on the understanding of the material in the early phases
of the design process. The proposal preserves and strengthens the identity of
Smöjen, demonstrating concept development in relation to material use and
circularity and contributes to the discussion regarding the architect as consumer
of building materials.

Enhancing effective information management: Designing a framework for improved implementation
(2024) Toulimat, Enaya; Faris, Marwah; Chalmers tekniska högskola / Institutionen för arkitektur och samhällsbyggnadsteknik (ACE); Chalmers tekniska högskola / Institutionen för arkitektur och samhällsbyggnadsteknik (ACE); Kifokeris, Dimosthenis
Effective information management is critical to the success of construction projects, yet
the industry continues to face persistent challenges in this area. This study aims to
investigate common challenges hindering efficient information management in
construction projects, design a conceptual framework to address these challenges, and
promote teamwork to facilitate effective information management throughout the
project lifecycle. The research methodology involved a systematic literature review and
interviews with key relevant stakeholders in the construction industry. The literature
review encompassed academic papers, reports, and grey literature, ensuring a reliable
and scholarly foundation for the investigation. The interviews involved professionals
from construction companies, experts in information management, and relevant project
stakeholders, providing a diverse representation of expertise within the industry. The
study found that incomplete, inaccurate, or poorly defined information often leads to
suboptimal decision-making, operational inefficiencies, and a reduction in the quality
of facility operation and maintenance. The proposed framework is designed to establish
a structured approach to information management in the construction industry, aligning
closely with the real-world needs and challenges identified during the interview
process. It is based on the principles and guidelines outlined in the ISO 19650 standard
and can potentially provide practical solutions and recommended tools to facilitate the
seamless implementation of the standard. The framework promotes teamwork and
collaboration among stakeholders, ensuring that information is communicated
transparently and exchanged with the appropriate individuals at the right time. By
addressing the persistent challenges in information management, the proposed
framework can help construction projects achieve success and deliver value to
customers.
