Trehulldekket

En fremtidig bransjestandard.

Tre som byggemateriale har sterke tradisjoner i Norge og Norden, og står sentralt for bærekraftig byggeskikk med hensyn til miljø. I alle byggeprosjekter som inneholder mer enn en etasje er det behov for etasjeskiller. Etasjeskiller er, som navnet tilsier, et bygningselement som skiller en etasje fra en annen. Det er imidlertid mangel på gode løsninger i tre som tilfredsstiller dette behovet. Trehulldekket er et nyutviklet konsept for slanke etasjer i tre som er utviklet innenfor Moelven-konsernet etter ønsker fra industrien. Ved å anbringe de benyttede materialer slik at de i størst mulig grad bidrar til elementets styrke og stivhet, oppnår man en materialeffektiv, funksjonell og miljøvennlig løsning som kan spenne over større spenn enn dagens løsninger i tre. Trehulldekket er prefabrikkert, enkelt og raskt å montere, takler lengre spenn, har lav byggehøyde.

RE Solar

RE Solar is a project that explores the market for providing renewable electricity as a profitable business in developing countries. The team consists of three students from NTNU’s School of Entrepreneurship and two investors from the industry. Our solutions are currently based on solar energy in off-grid villages, far away from the regular power grid. It will be a goal that the electricity contributes positively to the productivity and employment in the villages. The project is currently in a early stage, and therefore no firm decisions on technology or location has been made yet. RE Solar is a provisional title. Please contact us if you have any tips or experiences to tell us about!

Ingeniørspillet

Trivia board game for engineers by engineers

Ingeniørspillet is a trivia board game for engineers by engineers. It has six challenging, but entertaining, categories in which engineers finally can show what they know. The project started as a hobby for the three students, but after a huge response from the market, it is now a start-up company launching 1000 games to market in March 2011. All of the questions have been quality assured by NTNU, and the students have been working full-time to make this an instant engineering classic.

Classmate

A place where students learn from each other

At Classmate.no we are building a place where students learn from each other. It has started off as a page where students can share their experience about courses. This helps younger students to choose the course that fits them the best. In addition, it has potential to create constructive feedback on the quality of the courses that are evaluated.We’re developing the site further and creating an online community where students can discuss topics in their courses, share knowledge and help each other to get more out of their education.
