Purpose: This study aims to establish the basic directions of the modular airborne infection isolation(AII) ward. Considering a specific function and purposed use as a modular AII ward, it is a chance to derive an address of current modular technology by overview the limitation and improvement of the existing modular architecture. Methods: In addition to the literature analysis on the configuration system of mobile hospitals, research cases on the operational effectiveness of the domestic and foreign mobile construction systems are analyzed. Results: In order to meet the various and strict space guidelines of the AII ward and a chance to improve limitations of uniformed existing modulars, AII modular the negative pressurized care setting should be minimized a structural restriction for reflecting its system on a architectural plan. For this unique requirements, it could be possible to apply various space boxes called infill box which needs to secure a large-scale space. So, a rahmen structure system could be adaptable for this purpose. A dead space between beams of the rahmen structure is to be used for MEP installation. Partial separation, dismantling, and repair should be possible by separating the MEP and infill box from the structure. The infill box must keep 3.5m width under the current Road Traffic Act. Implications: It is necessary to utilize and develop an improved construction method that can reduce the problems of existing steel modular and PC modular.

The purpose of this study is to propose a design methodology to build temporary isolation rooms when infectious diseases suddenly occur in a certain region, such as the case of MERS-Cov in South Korea in 2015. Although most big hospitals usually have isolation rooms, they are expensive and dangerous to run such facilities on normal and typical days. To deal with these problems in this research, shipping containers are chosen as devices used to build the temporary isolation rooms near the original hospital. To do so, firstly, a prototype for the temporary isolation room was designed with the three part modules. The first part is for the medical team; the second part including the isolation rooms is for patients; the third part is for medical selection rooms to test the specimens. Secondly, the plan was compared with the MERS-Cov infection control guidelines. Finally this prototype is applied into the Yong-in Yon-sei severance hospital and then evaluated through a CFD simulation using STAR-CCM+(ver.9.06) for checking infectious bacterium movement in this prototype. The result showed that the prototype is effectively safe for patients tested as negative, patients waiting to be tested, and the medical team.
