그동안 많은 논란이 있었던 석면문제가 또다시 도마 위에 올랐다. 최근 아기에게 바르는 파우더를 비롯하여 화장품 등에까지 석면공포가 확산됨에 따라 환경부는 석면이 주로 건축자재(80% 이상)에 사용된 만큼 국민건강 보호를 위해 건축물에 사용된 석면의 안전한 관리가 무엇보다 중요하다고 판단, 가이드라인을 제정, 시행에 들어갔다. 가이드라인의 주요 내용은 $\Delta$건축물에 사용된 석면함유 설비 또는 자재를 조사하여 석면지도 작성 및 6개월마다 훼손 여부 평가 관리 $\Delta$석면 해체 제거작업 과정에서 석면이 비산되지 않도록 주변 대기 중 석면농도 0.01개/cc(실내공기질 권고기준) 기준 설정 $\Delta$석면 해체 제거 작업 및 폐석면 처리 시 안전한 석면관리를 위한 준수사항 등이다. 이번 가이드라인은 건축물 사용단계부터 철거 폐기까지 전 생에에 걸친 석면 관리 방법 및 기준 등을 포함하고 있어 건축물 이용자, 철거지역 인근 주민의 석면 노출 차단에 기여할 것으로 기대된다. 환경부는 가이드라인을 자치단체, 다중이용시설 관리자, 건축물 철거업체 등을 통해 널리 알리는 한편, 노동부 등 관계부처와 함께 관련제도 보완 등 건축물 석면관리 개선방안을 오는 6월까지 마련할 계획이다.

The purpose of the study is to identify land use characteristics which have influence on residents' mental health. Land use and housing types indicators including green areas and parks were selected by analyzing the related environment and health researches. Research database for every variable from 33 neighborhoods in Jeonju city were established through National Health Insurance Corporation, where is available for getting mental and behavioral disabilities (F code) expenses. The relation between those indexes and mental health were analysed. The findings of this study are as follows : First, the higher price area like apartments and raw houses the residents lived in, the more expenditure of F-code was paid. It could be interpreted by the relatively high frequency of medical treatment and interests on the health. Second, the more green area except park were there, the more F-code expenditure was given, which could be explicated with the spatial co-relation between location of green area and apartments of Jeonju city. It was very high, and apartment element's affect on the F-code was much more than the green zone. Third, the nearer to park were the residents, the less F-code expenses was paid.

This exploratory research examines a new approach to the healing environment in the changed health paradigm, and seeks to conceptualize the extended characteristics of the healing environment in the context of mental health promotion. This study aims to, first, define the concepts of health, mental health, and the healing environment in the changed paradigm, and second, develop the healing characteristics of the physical environment for mental health promotion and create indicators. For these purposes, this study performed a theoretical exploration that could support the concept of the healing environment for mental health promotion by expanding its scope into not only architecture, psychology, and psychiatry but also philosophy of architecture and environment psychology, which concerns the relationship between humans and the environment. This study considers related theories and attempts to establish a new concept from a convergent perspective. The characteristics of the healing environment categorized as a result of exploratory research on previous studies and theories include (a) physical protection promotion, (b) psychological comfort promotion, (c) social exchange promotion, and (d) personal self-esteem promotion. Establishing the concept of the healing environment for mental health promotion is important to implement the actual healing environment. Based on the concept, more specific design indicators and guidelines could be developed to conduct applied research.

지난 3월 권영걸 위원장이 국가건축정책위원장으로 취임하며 국가건축정책위원회(이하 국건위)가 새롭게 거듭났다. 제7기 국건위는 자연친화적인 국토환경, 건강한 생태도시 구현을 목적으로 '공원같은 나라, 정원같은 도시'를 슬로건으로 내걸고, 스마트 기술을 기반으로 도시의 쾌적성을 높여 국민 삶의 질을 높이고자 한다. 국가와 사회의 과제를 건축공간적 해법으로 풀겠다는 목표다. 이를 위해 국가상징공간 조성, ESG+Art 기반 선진 생태도시 모델 제시, ICT 융·복합 기반 '한국형 건축도시' 개발, 지방소멸에 대응한 도시건축 사업 추진 등 네 가지 중핵과제를 설정, 불철주야 노력하고 있다. 지난 7월 28일 권영걸 위원장을 직접 만나 정책 방향을 물어봤다. 한편 권영걸 위원장은 이날 인터뷰에서 "8월 3일부터 협회 의무가입제도가 도입된 것을 축하드린다. 이를 계기로 건축계 의견을 하나로 모으고, 건축사들의 직업윤리를 강화할 수 있게 됐다는 점에서 건축산업 발전에 크게 기여하게 될 것으로 기대한다"고 말했다. 그러면서 "건축사들의 직업적 권위가 보호되고 스스로 국가 디자이너이자 신문명 디자이너라는 시각을 갖고 일할 수 있도록 제반환경이 조성돼야 한다"며 "협회가 그런 길을 인도할 수 있는 역할을 해주시길 바란다. 국건위도 열심히 돕겠다"고 밝혔다.

Purpose: Recently, the number of severely mentally ill patients has been increasing rapidly in Korea, but there are no design guidelines for spatial planning of Korea's acute psychiatric wards. The study aims to clarify the areas and required rooms in Korea's acute psychiatric wards which are important in establishing the design guidelines for Korea's acute psychiatric wards. Methods: This study proposed a structural framework based on the results of investigating and analyzing the acute psychiatric ward guidelines in the UK, Australia, and the U.S. and the areas and the required rooms of the wards stipulated in the basic data for establishing acute psychiatric ward design guidelines in Korea. The design guidelines for overseas acute psychiatric wards are 'Adult Acute Mental Health' in the UK, 'Adult Acute Mental Health Inpatient Unit' in the Australia, and 'Specific Requirements for Mental Health Hospitals' in the United States. Results: As a result of investigating and analyzing the design guidelines for overseas acute psychiatric wards, the areas of wards applicable to acute wards in domestic psychiatric wards were access, patient, treatment, support, and employee areas. In addition, the required rooms for each area were defined around major considerations such as visibility, convenience, comfort, security, safety, patient observation, barrier-free design, and privacy protection. Implications: The results of the study will be presented as a structural framework and basic data for establishing design guidelines for Korea's acute psychiatric wards, which is still absent.

This study investigates the effect of urban and architectural forms on the microclimate in urban areas. It applies urban and architectural elements such as urban form and tissue and building form and characteristics as the main influences on the microclimate within urban area. Among the 23 Automated Weather Stations (AWS) installed within Seoul city by the Korea Meteorological Administration, 6 sites were selected for the analysis, based on their different urban and architectural characteristics, and actual measurements were conducted in August 2017 using individual AWS equipment. Also, the measurements of microclimate and urban and architectural elements within a 500m radius of the AWS measurement points were collected and analyzed. The result of the analysis shows that the microclimate elements, such as wind speed, solar radiation, and temperature, were affected by the direction of the streets, the width, depth, and height of the buildings, the topographic elevation and direction and the traffic volume. This study is expected to contribute to mitigating urban heat island effect and setting the foundation for sustainable cities through development of urban management methods and techniques including the relationship between built environment elements and microclimate.

Purpose: The main objective of this paper is, first, to assess a body of research evidence that articulates the impact of environmental and design factors on safety, quality of life, and health of the elderly who reside in geriatric hospitals or other elderly care facilities and, second, to draw out design implications that can be incorporated into design process and design decisions to help create healing environments for the elderly. Methods: Extensive literature review has been conducted to identify rigorous empirical studies that link the design of elderly care facilities to health-related outcomes and scrutinized peer-reviewed articles published in many different fields including architecture, psychology, nursing to gerontology. Results: The review found a growing body of rigorous studies that identified physical environmental and design factors that improve safety, quality of life, and health of the elderly in geriatric hospitals or other elderly care facilities. Implications: The findings of the review can be translated to design decisions to promote safety, quality of life, and health of the elderly in geriatric hospitals or other elderly care facilities.
