About the course.
Boverket's new building regulations, which apply from 1 July 2025, represent one of the biggest changes in modern Swedish building legislation. The general advice is removed and replaced by regulations formulated as functional requirements, which gives greater freedom but also greater responsibility. During this course you get a practical review of the new rules, how they differ from before and how to interpret, verify and apply them in your work.
Boverket's new building regulations from 2025 replace the previous BBR and Boverket's design regulations (EKS). The biggest change is that the general advice is removed and the regulatory framework now consists only of regulations in the form of functional requirements. This means that Boverket no longer specifies how the requirements are to be met, which places greater demands on the developer to document and prove how the requirements are met. The change means greater freedom, but also greater responsibility. This full-day course gives you an overall understanding of what the new building regulations mean and how you can use them in practice.
