The purpose of this study is to clarify the using condition and requirement for outdoor space between the parallel types of elementary school buildings focused on Chungbuk province in Korea. Consequently, we investigated the actual conditions of students and teachers, using conditions of outdoor space between school buildings. The summary of outdoor space can be given below. 1) In the using condition of outdoor spaces, most of them have path & covered walks, garden, playground and soon. The distances between neighboring building fixed, the use and quality of outdoor space is differently to spatial configuration of school buildings. For example, garden functions as itself in case of D/H>3, but the other space to observe in D/H>3. 2) In the requirements of outdoor spaces, the amount of scatter number of classmates and teachers is wide.

The purpose of this study is to clarify the block type of school buildings based on present conditions, by picking up elementary school buildings of Chungbuk Province in Korea. The summary of the block types can be given below. 1) Elementary school buildings(495) in Chungbuk Province are almost built in an average block of 1.7school(290). 2) The block types of school buildings are classified with "-", "ㄱ", "ㄷ", and parallel type. There are many "-" types over and parallel types in the second place of them. 3) The "-" block types are uniformly distributed with 166 elementary schools, below 6 classroom, 7through 24classrooms, beyond 25 classrooms. The "ㄱ" block types are 8 schools, and built as the wing of "-" block type in a limited space. The parallel types are classified with 2 3 lines according to the numbers of paralleled school buildings. The 2 parallel types are firstly represented with more than 95 classrooms, and 5 schools of "ㄷ" types, built as the wing of 2 parallel types, are only represented over 25 classrooms. The 3 parallel types are only 16 schools of all. They are uniformly seen in old and new school buildings.

This study reviewed the planning characteristics of dormitories for secondary schools in the Japanese Colonial Era by analyzing the architectural drawings collected by the National Archives of Korea. The dormitory was one of the essential facilities in secondary schools but there have been few studies in this area. The analysis items were the site plan and the planning characteristics of student bedrooms, dining hall, and supervisor's area, which were the main elements of the dormitory. The results of this study were summarized as follows. 1) Generally, the dormitory area was placed in the rear of buildings for teaching with a close connection. 2) The student bedroom wings were laid out in parallel to the south as a rule making the typical site plan pattern for a dormitory, whereas the other parts of dormitory, such as the dining hall and supervisor's area were placed in the site conditions. 3) Generally, the unit plans of bedrooms for Korean schools were the ondol type and were small in size, whereas those for Japanese were the tatami type and large in size with separate study and sleeping areas. 4) The dining hall annex was made up of a dining hall and kitchen-bathroom area in general. For Japanese schools, the school store area was added to these areas. The typical shapes of dining hall plans were narrow and long with an adjacent corridor, so the overall plan of the dining hall annex was like that of a single-corridor type block plan. 5) The supervisor's area was a smaller part of the dormitory but it was considered to be a symbolic part of the whole dormitory in site planning and design.
