    Totalentreprise - Ny hardbruksbustad i Vinje
    description:
    Vinje kommune skal å byggje eit mindre bustadkompleks med 2 identiske leilegheiter i Åmot sentrum. Kvar bustad er på om lag 75m2 BYA. Bygget er tenkt i standard bindingsverk av tre med golv på grunn i form av støypt dekke og ringmur. Sjølve bustadane er tiltenkt personar med ROP-lidingar (Rus og psykiatri) og andre vanskelegstilte i samfunnet. Med bakgrunn i dette er det viktig at prosjekterande har kunnskap frå tilsvarande prosjektet. Det er og viktig at det vert prosjektert gode løysingar som er slitesterke, men og skapar eit godt bustadmiljø for leigetakerane. Kommunen har allereie utarbeidt eit skisseprosjekt i samarbeid med Point AS. I skisseprosjektet kjem det fram kva for funksjonar og utforming som skal leggast til grunn for vidare prosjektering/utføring.

How an AI agent should use this page

Ground rule: Navigate with HTML GET links to keep explanations and relationships. Use the page's JSON alternative only when concrete values must be extracted, compared or computed.

How to use the search_doffin lookup

  1. Replace the placeholders in the HTML GET template; remove optional parameters you do not need.
  2. Check types, units, limits and ID formats in the parameter table.
  3. Follow linked results to canonical pages before combining sources.

Misreading to avoid: An empty list means "no results for this lookup". An error message or unavailable source does not mean the data does not exist.

Source-specific next step

Go to the source page for other operations. Use the JSON template only after the HTML result shows that the parameters and source are correct.
