This study is on the general characteristics of 'Monolithic' architecture. The intentions of monolithic architecture can be assumed as an attempt to replace the formal looseness or difficulties of understanding formal complexity of modern architecture, or a trial to react against contemporary avant-garde architectural tendency typically characterized as unstableness, uncertainty, fluidity, and articulation to reestablish autonomy of architecture. Buildings in this category coincide in their extreme economy and simplicity of overall form and consistency of external appearance while showing great expressional capacity with very limited formal means. Even though monolithic architecture still seems a little unstable and ambiguous in historical aspects, it can be considered as strikingly shaped objects or autonomous forms with identities, logics, and representation that promote recognition. Using architectural techniques of scale, colors, materials and finishes, monolithic architecture shows strategically invested surfaces that mediate between the inside and the outside, and shows unexpected and mysterious autonomy. This kind of monolithic approach is also found in interior space as a separate objects that contain functional space inside, or as formal elements that overflow the boundaries of conventional architecture by eliminating the distinction between floor, wall, and ceiling.

According to the recent research results of the Ministry of Environment, the indoor air quality of large general hospitals and university hospitals(58 hospitals) exceeded the maintenance standard. On top of such indoor air quality, it is also desperately required to have the environment-friendly building design and also low carbon green design in accordance with the increase of hospital size and enlarged hospital buildings. Especially, the increase of carbon dioxide, heat, garbage, waste energy, exhaust heat from power plants and sewage heat in each medical center brings up lots of problems to the health of hospital patients and customers. Thus this study aims to convergently develop the green environment-friendly architecture design technology concerning the organic relations between each medical building, and technical development which should be introduced to the low carbon green environment-friendly architecture design based on the characteristics of each medical center in large-scale medical complex.

Purpose: This study aims to analyze the meaning of architectural space of Alvar Aalto, which is based on architectural theories of periodic flows and the form of the space with the various elements applied to the works. Method: It analyzes the interrelationships of light, form and material in triangular composition by synthesizing the architectural vocabulary of Alvar Aalto from the viewpoint of modernism. Results: The architectural works of Alvar Aalto are centered on the combination of light, form, material, and space diversity, emphasizing social awareness and linking the human scale with the building environment. Conclusion: The structure of the Alvar Aalto is a synonym of nature and culture, society and individuals, standardization and diversity, universality and locality, intellectual and emotional, scientific and human psychological. It is possible to apply reciprocity elements to architectural spaces in a comprehensive manner while being different from each other in terms of rationality and immediacy.

The research aims to analyze the architectural trends of the public library buildings that have recently won the AIA/ALA Library Building Awards, ALA/IIDA Library Interior Design Awards or have introduced as excellent examples among the cases of new construction or remodeling of public libraries in North America. The research seeks to find the implications and guidelines for new constructions or remodeling of Korean public libraries by analyzing the main features of recently awarded library constructions, and to suggest the directions of public library constructions (or remodeling) to be opened in the future. The research found the six significant emergent themes by the content analysis and explained what each theme means with the examples of the libraries. On the basis of the findings, the research suggests the directions of public library designs and constructions in the future, and further follow-up research topics.

본 논문에서는 반자 내 화재 확산을 막기 위해 최적의 화재 감지 인자를 찾는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 국내에서는 반자 내의 화재로 인해, 대형 화재로 발전하는 많은 사례들이 있다. 기존에 반자 내 화재를 방지하기 위한 온도 화재 감지기가 있지만 온도를 통한 화재 감지는 감지 속도가 느리기 때문에 화재를 조기에 감지하기 어렵다. 그래서 기존의 온도를 이용한 감지를 대체할 다른 화재 감지 인자(CO, CO₂)를 비교하는 실험과 기존의 반자 내 화재 감지 인자인 온도를 비교하는 실험을 진행하였다. 두 실험을 통해 CO₂가 반자 내 화재 발생 시 온도 대비 보다 민감하게 화재를 감지할 수 있는 인자임을 확인하였다.

현대의 건축 재료는 각종 고분자 화합물의 비중이 커지고 있어 건축 재료가 연소할 때 발생하는 가스의 성분비가 천연재료를 이용하던 과거의 건축물과 차이를 보인다. 실제로 근래의 건축재료 연소가스의 정성분석결과에서도 천연재료의 연소가스에서 발견되는 CO, $CO_2$ 외에도 HF, HCN, HBr, HCl, NO, $NO_2$, $SO_2$등의 화학종이 발견되고 있다. 이러한 화학종들은 고분자 화합물에서 발생하는 것으로 분석되며, 건축 재료에서 화합물의 비중이 높아지는 만큼 향후 이러한 화학종들이 건축물의 화재에서 대피의 주요 방해요인으로 작용할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 HF를 대상으로 동물 노출실험을 통하여 얻은 결과와 HF에 대한 기존연구를 비교 분석하여 HF의 독성에 대한 기초 연구를 수행하였다.

Purpose: This study aims to examine the trends in healthcare architecture research by analyzing papers published in KIHA (Journal of the Korea Institute of Healthcare Architecture) and HERD (Health Environments Research and Design Journal) in the USA. The analysis categorizes these papers into Evidence-Based Design (EBD) and non-EBD research from a comparative perspective. Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted on 370 papers published in KIHA and 399 papers published in HERD from 2007 to 2022. The research trends were analyzed based on the researchers' fields of study, research focus, and research attributes. Results: The findings indicate that HERD involves researchers from 43 different fields, whereas KIHA involves researchers from 16 fields, indicating less diversity. HERD predominantly includes interdisciplinary and empirical studies, while KIHA primarily features theoretical and single-discipline studies. Papers in HERD generally demonstrate a higher level of evidence compared to those in KIHA. Implications: Direct comparisons should be approached with caution due to the differing contexts of healthcare architecture research in the two countries. The methodological efforts in HERD and the functional analysis results in KIHA provide valuable references for the future direction of healthcare architecture research. Expanding collaborative and interdisciplinary research involving various professionals is essential to advance the field.

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.

PHC pile head cutting is an essential work in pile foundation construction. However, since the work has labor-intensive characteristics, there are problems such as productivity and safety. So in previous study PHC pile one-cutting head cutting automation equipment was developed to solve this problem. However, it has been investigated as a limitation that checking the cutting position of the PHC pile can be challenging in place where a rotary laser leveler cannot irradiate cutting position, as the sensing unit of the developed automated equipment utilizes an optical method. Therefore, the objective of this study is to delvelop a GNSS-based methodology for sensing the cutting position of PHC piles to overcome the limitations of the optical method and to examine its feasibility for field application. If the proposed methodology is applied to the construction site, it is expected that the convenience and productivity of the PHC pile cutting position sensing work will be improved.
