Project Details
Description
The purpose of this project is to enhance the market and cooperation in the construction sector across the
Øresund Region. Every year more the 80 billion SEK are invested in new buildings and construction in the
Øresund region.
There are many similarities between the Danish and Swedish construction sector and many actors are working
on both sides of the Øresund. Despite this fact it is not possible for the sector to benefit from the Øresund
Region as one market. This is due to differences in traditions, structures and differences in between the
national codes. Today this means that there is not a common market in this sector why regional initiativ is
needed to open up this.
There is an immediate need for a regional network and for common “interpreters” of the national systems if
actors in the construction sector should be able to work together and be able to work across the Øresund.
The project focuses on removing obstacles and uncertainties which limit the possibilities of both public and
private actors. This will be done by:
Creating network for discussions
Creating regional understanding, and strive for transformation, of national manuals
Influencing the harmonisation of national codes
The activities will be related to topics that are recognised as being of relevance in creating a coherent market
in the Øresund Region. The project revolves around the topics Building Information Modelling (BIM) and
Classification. 8 pilot cases around this will be done.
A strong network that involves both public and private actors needs to be established. And the networks need
to discuss and find the necessary solutions. To do this communicative activities are necessary as well as a high
knowledge and a broad composition of competences.
Partners are all from institutes and institutions that have the above mentioned competences. The partners are
from: Lund University (LTH), Technical University of Denmark (DTU), and Danish Building Research Institute (SBi).
