This study is suggested tilt window type to be restrained solar radiation through vertical window type in buildings. The shading and aesthetical effect of buildings would be solved by installation of tilt window type. For investigate optimum an angle of tilt window and building azimuth in reference region, the distance of transmitted solar radiation is calculated. The results of calculation showed optimum an angle of tilt window is obtained $7^{\circ}$ that the distance of transmitted solar radiation is 20% of 1.5m of balcony width. In case of an tilt window angle of $7^{\circ}$, the optimum building azimuth is showed $SW15^{\circ}{\sim}SE15$.

The result of the study on the origin and preservation status of the 'Gongju Junghakdong old missionary house', the Registered Cultural Property No. 233, reveals that the building was approved on October 23, 1921, and missionary Alice H. Sharp was living in the building until her retirement from her missionary life of 39 years in Korea in 1939. In order to review internal and external preservation status of the building, condition of wood material, the composition of the window, the damage of the wall, and the leaning of the building were examined. In particular, in the case of window facilities, it is necessary to restore it to the original upper and lower sliding window. As a result of investigation of the preservation status of the external facilities, it is necessary to restore the original shape of the staircase and a deck of the building on south western side and the well. In addition, the results of the non-destructive diagnosis of the ground revealed that the building was built on uneven surface layer of 2-5 m thickness and the boundary between the surface layer and the upper part of the weathered rock is inclined following geomorphology. This phenomenon shows that when the water content of the ground increases in the rainy season, the bearing capacity of the ground is lowered, and there is a possibility of uneven subsidence. Especially, landslides may occur in case of heavy rain. Therefore, it is desirable to install a masonry facility at the southwest boundary of the site, and it is recommended to install a drainage facility to ensure rapid drainage.
