I Sverige regleras det kommersiella entreprenadförhållandet av ett antal standardavtal och vad gäller totalentreprenader tillämpas vanligen ABT 06. Standardavtalen reglerar bland annat vilken ansvarsfördelning som ska gälla för entreprenaden och innefattar också en avtalad plikt för entreprenören att hålla entreprenaden försäkrad under viss tid (försäkringsplikten). Uppsatsens övergripande syfte äIn Sweden, the commercial contracting relationship is dominated by a number of standard-form contracts. For turnkey contracts, ABT 06 is usually applied. The standard-form contracts regulate, inter alia, the share of responsibilities that shall apply to a contract as well as an obligation for the contractor to keep the contract insured during a certain period of time (the compulsory insurance).

Skiljeförfarandet är och har länge varit en populär alternativ tvistlösningsmetod. Detta gäller i synnerhet i internationella kommersiella tvister där parterna önskar ett neutralt förfarande utan koppling till endera parts nationella domstolar. Skiljeförfarandet har dock på senare tid börjat kritiseras för att ofta resultera i långdragna och kostsamma processer för parterna. Mot bakgrund av denna Arbitration is, and has been for long, a popular alternative dispute resolution. This is particularly true for international commercial disputes where the parties wish to have their case tried in a neutral setting. However, arbitration has in recent times received a lot of criticism for being slow and costly. In light of this criticism a new soft law-tool was presented in 2018 called the Rules on

Användandet av varumärken har gått från att enbart vara ett sätt att ange kommersiellt ursprung till att även kunna förmedla en image och vara ett sätt att marknadsföra sig. På grund av den stora mängden varumärken i dagens samhälle har nya vägar för att kunna skilja sig från mängden varit tvungna att finnas, vilket har lett till en ökad användning av okonventionella varumärken, exempelvis dofter.The use of trademarks has gone from just being a means to indicate commercial origin towards a way to market your brand and convey an image. Because of the large number of trademarks in the society of today new ways to stand out have had to be found, which has led to an increased use of unconventional trademarks, for example scents. A trademark may consist of any sign, particularly words, includin

This thesis examines the synergies of post-growth policies that aim to decrease environmental pressure at the legislative level of the European Union. Motivated by the urgent need to mitigate global warming and the limitations of the green growth paradigm, this thesis focuses on three specific post-growth policies: restriction of large resource extractions, reduction of caps on pollution, and proh

Fåmansföretagsreglerna i 57 kap. inkomstskattelagen (1999:1229) innehåller särregler för hur ersättning till aktiva ägare i fåmansföretag ska delas upp mellan avkastning på investerat kapital och ersättning för utfört arbete. Reg-lernas primära syfte är att förhindra inkomstomvandling för att på så sätt uppnå en neutral beskattning av skattskyldiga. Utdelning och kapitalvinst upp till ett visst beThe close company rules in Chapter 57 of the Swedish Income Tax Act (1999:1229) contain special provisions on how monetary compensation to active owners in close companies is to be divided between return on invest-ed capital and remuneration for performed work. The primary purpose of these rules is to prevent income conversion, and thereby achieving neutral taxation of taxpayers. Dividends and cap

Bergkross är det främsta materialet för uppbyggnad av vägar idag. Det är ett jungfruligt material som bara ökar i produktion för användning i anläggningssektorn. För att minska användningen och i förlängningen också produktionen av jungfruliga material undersöks mer sekundära ballastmaterial som exempelvis slaggrus för att nå ett cirkulärt flöde. Slaggrus har undersökts utifrån olika aspekter meCrushed stone is the main material for building roads today. It is a virgin material that is only increasing in production for use in the construction sector. To reduce the use of virgin materials, and with it the production, more secondary aggregate materials such as Municipal solid waste incinerated (MSWI) bottom ash are being investigated to achieve a circular flow. MSWI bottom ash has been in

Denna uppsats har undersökt rättssäkerhetsaspekterna vid separation av barn och unga i Statens institutionsstyrelses (SiS) särskilda ungdomshem, med särskilt fokus på personalens utbildningsnivå samt tillsynens effektivitet. Genom en rättsdogmatisk analys har det konstaterats att separation utgör en ingripande tvångsåtgärd med betydande konsekvenser för den unges fri- och rättigheter. Trots att lThis paper has examined the legal certainty aspects of the separation of children and young people in SiS special youth homes, with a particular focus on the level of education of the staff and the effectiveness of supervision. Through a legal dogmatic analysis, it has been established that separation constitutes an intrusive coercive measure that has significant consequences for the young person&

Optimising plant growth in a controlled climate requires good measurements of both biomass (measured in grams) and relative growth rate (measured in grams of growth per day and gram of plant). In order to do this efficiently and continuously on an individual level during plant development, this has to be done non-destructively and without frequent and labor intensive weighing of plant biomass. Thi

This thesis highlights the need for quality assurance of the Swedish preschools by regulating structural factors. Attending preschool has proven to have positive effects on both children and society, provided that the preschool maintains a high quality. In comparison, if the quality is poor this might result in negative or harmful effects. Various movements have indicated that the Swedish preschoo

Traffic patterns generated by multimedia services are different from traditional Poisson traffic. It has been shown in numerous studies that multimedia network traffic exhibits self-similarity and burstiness over a large range of time-scales. The area of wireless IP traffic modeling for the purpose of providing assured QoS to the end-user is still immature and the majority of existing work is base

Popular Abstract in Swedish Bakgrund Man kan fråga sig varför en hel avhandling handlar om något så ovanligt som akut mastoiditit hos barn. Det är den vanligaste komplikationen till öroninflammation men drabbar bara 20-60 barn per år i Sverige. Öroninflammation däremot är en infektion som är så vanlig att nästan alla har haft åtminstone en sådan som barn. I Sverige diagnostiseras upp emot 200 000 One of the greatest threats to society today is the development of bacterial resistance to antibiotics. It is commonly accepted that this is mainly due to the use of antibiotics. Acute otitis media (AOM) is responsible for the highest number of antibiotic prescriptions to children although it is in most cases a self-limiting disease. Nevertheless, complications do occur in some case and the most c

In order to study the influence of the weather on the snowmelt in the Tarfala Valley, a survey of the runoff from the snow in the valley, was performed in May and June 1988, at the Tarfala Research Station. The aim of the survey was to find a simple numerical model that corresponds well to the runoff from the snow and to identify reasons for deviating runoff in different places. The survey was bas

Problem definition: Companies competing in a market environment are trying to improve their competitiveness. A widespread company strategy is to focus on the core operations and competencies and outsource non-core activities. Managing companies’ vehicle fleets is often considered non-core operations which have led to the creation of the operational vehicle leasing industry. It means that the leasi

Sweden is a member of the European Union since 1995. The European Union issues directives that cover different areas. Member states must implement these directives into their national legislation. The European council issued in 1993 a directive that took action on the organization of working time, also known as the working time directive. The full name is: Council directive 93/104/EC of 23 Novembe

For decades the largest part of European citizens has been dependant on State provided pensions. However, this safety net will not hold in the long run. Europe is going through a dramatic demographic change where the elderly group in the society is growing rapidly in size at the same time as the young generation is constantly decreasing. This change has a restraining effect on the public pension s
