Public rental housing is constructed, owned, and managed by the public sector. The public institution for the public rental housing controls the whole building life cycle from the construction to the demolition. The construction company for the house built for sale is strongly interested in the cost for the initial investment, while the public institution is more focused on the maintenance cost for the preservation of the buildings Nevertheless, the maintenance cost of the public rental housing has been only managed as the accounting factor without the systemic research and analysis on the actual condition. This paper shows how expenses are related to the degree of obsolescence and presents the differences of the maintenance costs by the housing area and expenditure trends (vs time) of the maintenance costs, through analyzing time series data of public rental housing maintenance cost. Further, this paper helps understanding the causes of the differences of the maintenance costs by housing areas and characteristics of the expenditure trends. After all, this paper contributes to the improvement of the reliability and the practicality for the Life Cycle Cost modeling and the maintenance cost estimating.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the maintenance condition and cost in the past ten year on the subject of permanent Rental Housing in Seoul and Gyeong-Gi. It also suggests the problems and improvements related to long-term maintenance. The Interviews with thirty experts who have had experience in this area more than ten years and data analysis are adopted as basic methods. The data on the maintenance cost such as a budget in practice by a term and the real cost far the repair are analyzed. The primary findings of this study are as follows : 1) the rate of maintenance cost for 13 years is $4.56\%$ when the prime construction cost is regarded, while the figure is $6.70\%$ when the construction cost is considered 2) it is just of forced the basic lists for repair applied commonly to Rental housing. Hence, individually managers consider the features of housing and determine the detail lists.

Tn improve the quality in apartment houses, it has regarded one of the most important steps as systematic maintenance. Also, repair and long-term maintenance have played an important role in maintenance of the rental apartment. Moreover, the historical data which come from these works have functioned as preventive maintenance in inspection and references in repair and long-term maintenance. To sum up, it would be necessary to get rid of the factors of dispute from sharing a variety of data among occupants, superintendents, and proprietors. Futhermore, it would be possible to show the management methods of repair and long-term maintenance historical data.

In suite of a high supply of multi-family housings, the government's housing policies have only been focusing on the construction of housings and their supply, while being almost indifferent to the maintenance management of them. As a result, a considerable amount of inconvenience to the use of housing resources and habitation of residents occurred. Accordingly, on this paper, the current housing policies and their inspections on the maintenance period are compared and analyzed with suggestions for improvement. Analysis shows that repairing of housings at appropriate time not only significantly delays the deterioration of housings, but also keeps the function of housings to their original condition. Therefore, through an efficient management of repair maintenance, wearing of buildings can be delayed and their functions can be improved.

The long-term repair program is significant as the execution standard for apartment in repair construction, and provides the basis for effective facility management through appropriation reserve and preventive maintenance. Considering its importance, the government legislates the items, cycle, and ratio for long-term repair. However, the frequent changes, controversies on repair, and difficulties in using appropriation reserve are caused as the items have not been revised on time reflecting up-to-date construction technologies. In order to resolve these problems, it is required to improve the standard by evaluating the appropriateness of repair items throughout the analysis of actual conditions. This study aims to suggest the revision plan for the criteria with the major items based on the status identified by the actual long-term repair programs and historical repair construction data. To do this, the adoption ratios of items to program are reviewed by collecting the real cases of the long-term repair programs. Developing improvement plan was approached in two ways such as "exclusion method" deleting minimum unnecessary items and "selection method" sorting out items with high adoption ratio and evidence of repair in a positive manner. Aa a result, the major items were identified as 118 items and 73 items by exclusion method and selection method respectively from the current 147 items. The outcomes of this study are expected to contribute enhancing the practicality of the standard in that the regulation for long-term repair program should periodically reflect the status of currently applied construction methods and materials.

To maintain the public office buildings, the related government employee uses cost under the limited budget. it is difficult to execute the budget as is assigned to maintenance items with contemplating the characteristics such as frequency, cost/item, weighting factor, and etc. As a precedent study about this cost-efficiency model, this study is intended to show the expenditure trends, frequencies, and cost distributions of maintenance items for the development of cost-efficiency model by analyzing time series data from the surveys on maintenance costs of the selected public office buildings.

This study as a demand of reconstruction allows the longevity of the multi complex, analyze the problems and solutions for a long term maintenance planning scheme, and how to save contingency fund to utilize. The major role of the multi complex housing market reflects Positively on our valuable society, provides a better life of environment on top of longevity and for the superior living duality. For a achievement and improvement existing long term maintenance Plan and contingency fund system should be considered as follows. First, shall be expanded more units of house as smaller group. Second, advice from expert shall be reconsidered, eliminated, and protected reorganizing an informal reconstruction planning comparatively legal procedure must be renegotiated and pursued. Third, the fund which saved for the contingency has to clarified as tax free item by government. It's not only mistreated as a limitation of personal asset but also treated as national source Despite of rather compulsive and constructive method must be noticed by whoever owns for, more positive follows, promotion and directing must be able to guide its understanding and adherence of importance and inevitability.

Consumers are addressing the issue of dimensional dissatisfaction by repairing clothes, experimenting with style changes, and looking for cost-effective solutions that result in better-fitting garments. This study investigated the repair status by type of clothing, analyzed the method and frequency of repair by type of clothing category and season, and analyzed consumer redesign activities. The findings revealed that upper garments, such as T-shirts, jumpers, jackets, dress shirts, and dresses, were frequently repaired. The common modifications to upper garments included(in order of frequency) shortening sleeve length, shortening overall length, reducing garment width, zipper repair, and adjusting sleeve width. Lower garments, such as pants, jeans, skirts, and training pants, followed in terms of repair frequency. The modifications to lower garments included(in order of frequency) shortening length, reducing width, adjusting waist width (both narrowing and widening), replacing elastic bands, zipper repair, and lengthening. Repairs were more frequently conducted in the order of autumn, winter, spring, and summer. Repair methods varied depending on the clothing type and alterations involved to the length and width of garments and the replacement or removal of old sections. Redesigning clothing as a recycling method was found to enhance the cost-effectiveness of the collection. The study further confirmed the sustainability aspect of redesigning and reusing clothing.
