Abstract
Due to the improved living standards and the expectation on higher-quality housing of tenements, complaints on the defects in the buildings are increasing every year. Also, the types of flaws are changing. We surveyed one hundred buildings(9,748 households) in 12 complexes across the country to investigate the shifted types. The number of defects received increased by about 1.6 times compared to 10 years ago, while the categories did not change. The report on the malfunctioning mechanical equipment has increased 1.4 times than ten years ago, and the types of the problem changed. The proportion of general parts(water supplement, drainage, water pressure) has decreased about 25% compared to 10 years ago. This is because the items related to the indoor environment become standardized in apartment housing. Therefore the problems related to those have been increased. As the specialized items applied to the tenement building are showing gradual expansion, the defect reports concerning those will also grow.
