Environmental sculpture is not just a decoration for architecture. It is a work of art with public interest and one of the best ways to improve street landscape design. Place of installation is very important for environmental sculpture, because it has close relationship with its surroundings and regional context. Field survey was performed on Teheran-Street, between Samsung station and Yeoksam station, central business district of Kang-Nam where lots of major buildings are located. All the 28 environmental sculptures facing Teheran-Street were examined. Relationship between environmental sculpture and street landscape design was investigated by three different points of view, relationship with architecture, intimacy with pedestrian, and space defined by the environmental sculpture. Environmental sculpture needs its own space and appropriate place to have beneficial influence on the sense of place. Environmental sculpture is important factor to control the quality of street landscape design. We should have macroscopic approach to determine place of installation, method and material of Environmental sculpture.

Polymer-modified mortars have been largely used as paving materials, flooring, waterproofing material, adhesives, anticorrosive linings, deck coverings, and other various materials. The various types and properties of the mixed polymer largely affect the characteristics of polymer-modified mortar that has been mixed with polymer latexes. Consequently, its application purposes are varied according to these properties. This paper investigates the typical properties of polymer-modified mortars that contain styrene and butyl acrylate latexes and styrene butadiene rubber. They are then tested to obtain air contents, water-cement ratios, flexural and compressive strengths, water absorption, and chloride-ion penetration. From the test results, the superior flexural strength of polymer-modified mortars is obtained at a S/BA-2 and a polymer-cement ratio of 20%. And, the water absorption and chloride ion penetration depth are greatly affected by the polymer-cement ratio rather than the types of polymer. In the polymer-modified mortar and concrete structures, aggregates are bound by such a co-matrix phase, resulting in the superior properties of polymer-modified mortar and concrete compared to conventional mortar and concrete.

Part of public arts, environmental builforms not only enhance the beauty of a building, but also serve to stabilize the citizen's psychology and as a landmark having intimate values with the city environment and symbolic meanings. Thus they do have sociocultural values as an original formative artwork. The purpose of this study was to suggest evaluation and review methods and an evaluation framework for environmental builtforms, which had legal binding under the building decoration system, to a local government to improve the quality level of urban environment. It will be such a distant goal of creating a desirable urban environment as long as environmental builtforms are merely regarded as an object to follow a vogue and a mandatory passage procedure. It's important to take a perspective of an expert to set up and suggest an evaluation system in the public aspects. In the study a consideration was made of the current systems and review criteria of environmental builtforms, which was followed by the development of a theoretical research model and of a framework for statistical evaluation by a group of experts. The questionnaire designed based on the theoretical research model was tested for validity and reliability. Its pilot test results were then analyzed to verify the hypotheses. The questionnaire collected twice were statistically analyzed in exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis with the SPSSWIN 11 program. All the analysis results were used to come up with a final evaluation framework.

The purpose of this study is to analyze characteristic interior spaces for TV news center studio. Based on eight channels including public and comprehensive programming broadcasting stations the method for this research is to make differentiate existing relevant literature by creating analysis items for interior spaces through various case studies as well as find out characteristics of spatial forms, colors, materials, decorations, and etc. The conclusions are as follows. Firstly, spatial form of desk and ceiling are similar shapes but floor and wall are different comparing with public and comprehensive programming broadcasting stations. Secondly, preferred color for floor and ceiling is black, for wall and desk are blue and gray. Thirdly, various materials are preferred between public and comprehensive programming broadcasting stations. Fourthly, Flat and elevated floors are preferred as well as space and logos of broadcasting station are preferred for background images as decoration elements. Lastly, Soffit ceiling, desk accommodating more than 4 people, spotlight for public broadcasting stations, and architectural lighting for comprehensive programming broadcasting stations are preferred.

The wall painting and Relief type sculpture were a part of an architecture. Therefore they had better to be preserved in situ, differing with other works of arts. But we confronted inevitable cases to transfer them in appropriate place to conserve. And considering their fragility and a potential danger such as a vibration and shock in process of transfer, we had to do the preventive treatments to prohibit unexpected deteriorations. In this paper, I mention the transferring process when Kwon's 'Relief' was faced to be removed by reconstruction program. A preventive treatment and packaging method were referred in priority.

The outer surface of an irregular structure contains panels with two-directional curvature called NURBS. To construct these forms of exterior materials, complex geometric surface should be divided into forms and sizes that can be manufactured and constructed. Because the bigger the curvatures of these divided exterior panel, the more expensive the construction costs, these complex two-directional curvatures should go through optimal process of reinterpretation to minimize the curved surfaces with complex two-directional curvatures. Yet, to gain higher ground in technological competition in the field of irregular structure construction, companies do not share know-how that they obtained. Accordingly, small construction and design companies have trouble calculating even rough estimate and cannot adjust expected construction cost based on comparison of design alternatives. Given this situation, this study conducted the research that can support decision-making in the design stage of the construction and provide basic material for optimal range to reduce manufacturing cost by the minimizing the distorted plane of the irregular structure.

Interior of the building is used as a MDF plywood if there is a fire in order to delay the ignition, flame retardant paint, flame retardant solution and flame retardant film are being handled by the flame retardant. Combustion characteristics anf flame retardant performance results can be summarized as follows: General film with a sample showed that short of the criteria in terms of carbonation area, and the results of flame retardant paint, flame retardant solution and flame retardant film products satisfied the criteria. Toxic gases generated in the combustion process results in a film samples using a high incidence of carbon monoxide and the creation of a smoke could be seen. This confirm that is estimated that result from incomplete combustion of PVC film that attach, and displays high toxicity index and hazard class relatively.

The BIM simulation systems involve inefficient aspects in delivering real world circumstances because they are operated in the virtual reality (VR) environment without representing the job-site operations. Differently from VR, augmented reality (AR) enhances the reflection of job-site reality to virtual environment. AR influences architecture, design and construction. This reality replaces or merges with the normal physical world and it can be tailored to enhance comprehension for specific design and construction activities. The main objective of this research is to develop an AR-based decision support system for free-form buildings design/construction/maintenance processes. Haewoojae, a free-form housing building built in Seoul area is identified as a model building to generate the system. Seventeen engineers, who are masters or doctorate graduate students at the S university in Seoul and have been working in the Korean construction industry for more than 10 years are invited to validate the system's appropriateness and usability in comparison with its development objectives.

In the study of Art History and Archaeology, the paintings, sculptures, relief, and applied arts provide a vivid description of religious and historical events and everyday life. Through these descriptions it is possible to gain a greater understanding of things such as the customs, culture, and architectural styles of that period. However, if Art History and Archaeological images are very old, distorted or underexposed, it is difficult to analyze them. Using Levels and Curves is one way to tonally correct professional photographs. It is an effective method for tonal correction because of the exact numeric values which are calculated and displayed as the image is adjusted. In this paper, the usefulness of this method for correcting a distorted archaeological image was examined.

Architecture is the product of a way of thinking. If the problems of architecture are to be traced to their roots, then attention needs to be focused on the thinking and considerations that inform its production. Adolf Loos occupies a truly exceptional place in the history of architecture. Adolf Loos's ideas and attitudes disagree with the notion that modernity is possible to develop a harmonious culture within the bounds of a modernizing society. Loos chronologically precedes the modern movement, but his ideas contain the seeds of what will be worked out later as a complex critique of the movement's notions about architecture and modernity. Loos holds the view that modernity provokes an inevitable rupture with tradition that has as a consequence the disintegration of one's experience of life. This evolution, he think, obliges architecture to display a number of languages corresponding to a multitude of different experiences. Through the discussion of Loos's opinions on dwelling and architecture, it explores the true features of position of Loos in modern architecture. Loos thinks that the rejection of the deliberate creation of a new style was a correct response to the diagnosis of life as being rootless and fragmented. Ornament is that which people use to attempt to relate different aspects of life and to join inner and outer worlds in a coherent whole. By getting rid of ornament the illusion is destroyed that a harmonious unity of this sort is still possible. One can only remain true to tradition if one acknowledges that its continuity is not an unbroken one. Dwelling can only be saved by separating it from other aspects of life.
