The purpose of this study was to analyze the planning characteristics and it's application of container architecture as case study. Field survey was used to analyze the spatial planning characteristics in terms of development outline, appearance, exterior, floor plan and interior of eight famous cases in Berlin, Hamburg, Hannover, Amsterdam and Paris of Europe. The results of this study were as follows; Firstly, good examples of container architectures such as student housing, social service center, temporary medical facility and cruise terminal in Europe suggested the potential of domestic applicability in various purposes and development. Secondly, various types of freight container, building container and module frame system should be developed with their reprocessing environment. Thirdly, it is necessary for us to develop ISO type(20~40ft) container and standard plan with interior and storage design reflecting demands of residents. Finally, the use of container module will be an environmental-friendly alternative for its modularity and reusability, so it should be used as it is without severe deformation. The development of environmental friendly energy sources such as hydro and solar power is necessary for domestic container architecture as well. The container design should include the use of high quality of exterior finishing materials and the plan of aesthetical color planning to make the building a local landmark.

Modern construction projects have stakeholders from various construction fields, highlighting the importance of efficient information sharing and collaboration. The expanding scope of Building Information Modeling (BIM), particularly in the domestic construction sector, necessitates a Common Data Environment (CDE). However, applying foreign commercial CDE solutions within the domestic context is challenging due to the difficulty of aligning them with the unique organizational structures and characteristics prevalent in the country. Furthermore, the information review and approval processes specified by ISO 19650 often fail to harmonize adequately with the domestic design procedures, limiting the full utilization of CDE advantages. This study endeavors to develop a Korean CDE collaborative platform based on ISO 19650, with a focus on adapting workflows and information container systems to the domestic context. Building upon the requirements of ISO 19650-based CDE workflows and information containers, this research involves an in-depth analysis of information generation, sharing, review, and approval processes within domestic design organizations, offering tailored CDE workflows and information container systems that align with the specific needs of the Korean construction industry.

It has been seriously difficult to create demand of modular construction because Korean modular method has been considered as container house or lightweight steel house. Actually, barrier factor of modular construction for activation was difficult to produce modular continuously in factories based on stable amount of demands. So, this research found successive factors of modular construction and proposed the method of demand creation through a plethora of case analysis by building types. In addition, this research found the scale of modular potential market. Owners will be able to use this strategy that is proposed in this research when they make a decision about construction system. Also, the modular construction can make potential market in Korea. As a result, modular system producer can make their business strategies and make continuous demand by conjugating the method of creating demand for modular construction which is proposed in this research.
