Residential indoor space is a major living setting for young children where multi-dimension at development can be expected through the interaction with items and components of the environment. The physical environment and attributes have been, however, relatively ignored. Especially during last several decades of housing development, residential units have been produced without accurate understanding of residents' material possession. To better design living environments, especially, a life setting for children, this research focused on finding out the characteristics of living items which belong to and are used by children.

This study explores manufacturing technology and basic properties of high strength cement composites at 2,000kg/㎥ of specific weight. It is suggested that lightweight-high strength cement composites can be produced by substituting silica sand in ulta-high performance concrete mixture with lightweight materials such as solid bubbles and lightweight fine aggregates. The 28-day compressive strengths of cement composites with solid bubbles were from 116MPa to 141MPa at below 2.0g/㎤ of unit density while the cement composites with lightweight aggregates possessed lower compressive strength and higher unit density. The specific weight calculated from mixture proportions did not have significant difference with unit density of hardened cement composites, indicating that unit density of hardened cement composites can be estimated from the specific weight in mixture proportions.

Whit trade increasingly taking place on the global stale, packaging becomes even more important However, there is only a fine line between the balance of waste created by damaged goods and waste created by over-packaging. A vast quantity of material is used by the packaging industry for the reason of bringing products safely to the customers. In this research I gathered 87 samples of various kinds of confectionery to analyse the actual conditions of the appropriate packaging. As a result, the rate of the needless space excluding actual contents comes to over 60% which clearly says that the most products are over-packaged. Despite assertions from the packaging industry that all packaging is necessary in reducing product waste, the research shows us the fact that it's over-packaged. What needs to be questioned, here, is the level of materials we use in packaging our products, and how we can continue to decrease that amount and recycle what we do use. In the future where materials and resources become more scarce, and therefore more expensive, and the methods of disposal become more costly and accountable, designers and manufacturers constantly need rethink and improve methods of packaging.

28 kHz 주파수, 조사강도 70 W/L, pH 7로 조정, 조사시간 5 min으로 전처리된 비산재를 사용하여 인공경량골재의 시편을 제조하여 압축강도, 흡수율, 단위용적중량을 분석하였다. 분석 결과 압축강도는 평균 18 MPa 이상으로 측정되어 기준인 18 MPa를 만족하였으며, 흡수율은 국내 기준은 없지만 일본의 기준인 12% 이하보다 매우 높은 흡수율을 나타내었다. 단위용적중량은 기준(1650 kgf/m$^3$ 이하)에는 만족하지만 비교적 낮은 값을 보였으며, 중금속 용출시험결과 측정항목에서 매우 저농도로 나타나 환경상 위해성은 매우 미미할 것이라 판단된다.

The aim of this study is to analyze the evaluations and determinants on residential resettlements in accordance with urban regeneration by 7,396 samples from 19 housing redevelopment districts in Busan. The major finding on determinants on residential resettlements in accordance with urban regeneration are as follows; A binary logit model for determinants on residential resettlements in accordance with urban regeneration are composed of owner's characteristics, land and building characteristics, housing complex characteristics, and location characteristics. The significant variables in relation to owner's characteristics are owner's age, owner's place of residence, the possession period against property and investment intention. As a result of logit model for residential resettlements, it shows that the variables in relation to land and building characteristics are the land classification, the use of building, the size of land or building, the permission of building and the appraisal price on land and building. This result means that actual customer's investment connects to resettlement after redevelopment project. The other side, the housing complex variables consist of the brand of construction company, the ratio of large size housing and floor are ratio shows that improvable conditions for housing value are important factor to induce residence's resettlement. The location variables show that Dongbusan has higher probability, the reverse Jungbusan has lower probability in residential resettlement likewise residential preference.
