The pros and cons of green building thermal insulation materials and systems have been reviewed from traditional thermal insulation materials such as mineral wool and polyurethane to new thermal insulation materials like VIP and aerogel and future insulating VIM and DIM. VIPs and aerogels with very low thermal conductivity can use for green buildings to significantly increase residential area by reducing energy consumption. Aerogels can be produced as not only opaque and but also translucent forms, thus enabling a wide range of possible building application. For building applications, there are many properties to consider like building site adaptability and mechanical strength, fire protection, cost and environmental impact.

As an urbanization is in progress, the change of the planimetric features and topography including high-rise residential buildings commonly occur. The change of the planimetric features and topography causes occurrence of the strong wind and wind speed increase or decrease due to the effect of planimetric features and topography on the windward side even though the wind blows with the same speed. In the design standard, this change by wind speed is defined as the velocity pressure exposure coefficient, the value of coefficient is estimated and reflected by ground surface roughness, but in a reality, ground surface roughness is determined in accordance with the subjective judgement of designer and then the velocity pressure exposure coefficient is estimated, moreover the research and data for classification of ground surface roughness are insufficient. In this paper, we will estimate the velocity pressure exposure coefficient by the quantified method for classifying ground surface roughness by using GIS according to the height of a building targeting area where high-rise residential buildings are built lately. When the structure subjected to wind load is designed, reasonability of design and safety of structure will be more improved by using the estimation method of velocity pressure exposure coefficient presented in this study.

With recent growth of population and industry, urban development grows into grand scheme of excavation and construction in urban area. As the development progress advanced, the developments get large and deepen. With a progress of technology development in geotechnical engineering in Korea, most our grand scheme of projects follows great progress. On the other hand, some excavation in construction site caused direct or indirect event that affects the adjacent or surrounding structures by excavation from time to time. This event usually happens around residential and commercial area where underground tunnel, subway station, commercial building, and high-rises excavation site is, could lead great damage on economy as well as personal injury or human casualties. In order to prevent this event, the study has to be done with analysis on various events of excavation and its cause. In this paper, the research has collected the various excavation events and their causes to analyze on each site and event to define emphasis on surrounding environment.

This study explores the geographic characteristics of Hutong(alleyways) in Beijing. The word 'Hutong' originated from the Mongolian language, pronounced 'hottog' and meaning 'well'. In ancient times, people tended to gather and live around wells. After liberation, Beijing witnessed a rapid development in urban construction. A large number of residential areas were established and the number of alleyways in the city increased to over 6,000 from about 3,000 before liberation. In recent years, with the city's further modernization, more and more tall buildings have appeared in Beijing while the number of alleyways has been decreasing. 'Siheyuans(quadrangles)' are buildings with unique architectural features in Beijing's alleyways. In recent year, Siheyuans are changing to guesthouses, shops, bars, souvenir shops, restaurants and so on. Especially Nanluoguxiang(alleyway) is becoming an attractive area for tourism and cultural creativity in the ancient capital Beijing. Since 1990, 25 Hutong districts are protected for historical preservation by the Beijing Municipal Government.

This study is as skyscrapers are becoming increasingly taller, more constructors have decided the height alone cannot be a sufficient differentiator. As a result, atypical architecture is emerging as a new competitive factor. Also, it can be used for symbolizing the economic competitiveness of a country, city, or business through its form. Before the introduction of digital media, there was a discrepancy between the structure and form of a building and correcting this discrepancy required a separate structural medium. Since the late 1980s, however, digitally-based atypical form development began to be used experimentally, and, until the 2000s, it was used mostly for super-tall skyscrapers for offices or for industrial chimneys and communication towers. Since the 2000s, many global brand hotels and commercial and residential buildings have been built as super-tall skyscrapers, which shows the recent trend in architecture that is moving beyond the traditional limits. Complex atypical structure is formed and the formative characteristics of diagonal lines and curved surfaces, which are characteristics of atypical architecture, are created digitally. Therefore, it's goal is necessary to identify a new relationship between the structure and forms. According to the data of Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH), 100-story and taller buildings were classified into typical, diagonal, curved, and segment types in order to define formative shapes of super-tall skyscrapers and provide a ground of the design process related to the initial formation of the concept. The purpose of this study was to identify the correlation between different forms for building atypical architectural shapes that are complex and diverse. The study results are presented as follows: Firstly, complex function follows convergence form characteristics. Secondly, fold has inside of architecture with repeat. Thirdly, as curve style which has pure twist, helix twist, and spiral twist. The findings in this study can be used as basic data for classifying and predicting trends of the future super-tall skyscrapers.

2010년과 2011년 서울에서 발생한 집중호우와 2014년 부산에서 발생한 집중호우의 발생으로 막대한 재산상의 피해와 사상자를 냈다. 2010년 9월 21일에 발생한 집중호우는 1908년 관측시작이래 가장 많은 비가 내린 것으로 기록되었으며 주거지 4,727호, 상가 1,164호, 공장 126동 등이 침수되고 13시를 기준으로 강서지점의 경우 시간당 98.5mm의 기록적인 강우를 기록하였으나, 관악지점은 5.5mm에 그쳐 두 지점간의 시간당 강우량의 편차가 약 200배 가까이 차이가 나는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같이 최근 도시지역에서 국지성 집중호우가 증가하고 있으며 지역별 강우 편차가 크고 이에 따라 침수피해발생 여부도 지역에 따라 달라진다. 강수의 공간적 분포와 그로 인한 침수해석은 도시돌발홍수 예경보 시스템에 있어 무엇보다도 중요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 도시지역 돌발홍수 예경보 시스템 구축을 위한 정량적 강수추정 QPE(Quantitative Precipitation Estimation)기법에 따른 수리 수문학적 영향을 평가하는 것이다. 정량적 강수추정을 위해 AWS, SKP, 레이더 자료를 활용하여 250m의 해상도를 가지도록 크리깅을 적용하였다: QPE 1은 34개의 AWS의 지점우량을 지구통계학적 기법 중의 하나인 크리깅을 이용하여 산정한 기법, QPE 2는 AWS와 156개의 SKP의 강우데이터를 크리깅을 이용하여 산정한 기법, QPE 3는 광덕산 레이더를 이용한 기법, QPE 4는 AWS, SKP, 광덕산 레이더 자료를 조건부 합성한 기법이다. 월류량을 산정하기 위해 도시유출해석모형인 SWMM을 강남역 일대를 대상으로 구축하고 우수관로 시스템으로 유입되지 못한 노면류(Surface flow)를 함께 고려하였다. 침수해석을 위해서는 DHM모델을 적용하였으며 2013년 7월 기간에 발생한 호우에 대하여 분석을 수행하였다. 비교수행을 위해서 인접한 서초 AWS와 강남 AWS의 지점강우량도 함께 고려하였으며 모의결과를 국가 재난관리 정보 시스템(NMDS)에 침수피해가 확인된 가옥 및 빌딩 정보와 일치여부를 적합도로 산정하였다. 산정된 적합도를 통하여 정량적 강수추정기법에 따른 수리?수문학적 영향을 평가하였다. 실제 침수흔적정보와 비교 결과, QPE 2와 QPE4가 가장 적합도가 높았으며 이에 따라 고밀도의 관측망의 구성이 도시지역 침수해석결과에도 적합할 것으로 판단된다.

Urban land surface temperature (LST) change is a major environmental factor that affects the thermal comfort, energy consumption, and health of urban residents. Most studies that explored the relationship between LST and urban built-environment form analyzed only midday LST. This study explores the diurnal variation of summertime LST in Seoul using ECOSTRESS data, which observes LST at various times of the day and analyzes whether the LST variation differs by built environment type. Launched in 2018, ECOSTRESS operates in a non-sun-synchronous orbit, observing LST with a high resolution of 70 meters. This study collected data from early morning (6:25) to evening (17:26) from 2019 to 2022 to build time-series LST. Based on greenery, water bodies, and building form data, eight types of Seoul's built environment were derived by hierarchical clustering, and the LST fluctuation characteristics of each cluster were compared. The results showed that the spatial disparity in LST increased after dawn, peaked at noon, and decreased again, highlighting areas with rapid versus stable LST changes. Low-rise and high-rise compact districts experienced fast, high temperature increases and high variability, while low-density apartments experienced moderate LST increases and low variability. These results suggest urban forms that can mitigate rapid daytime heating.

The energy consumption of buildings is approximately 20.5% of the total energy consumption, and the interest in energy efficiency and low consumption of the building is increasing. Several studies have performed energy analysis and evaluation. Energy analysis and evaluation are effective when applied in the initial design phase. In the initial design phase, however, the energy performance is evaluated using general level information, such as glazing area and surface area. Therefore, the evaluation results of the detailed design stage, which is based on the drawings, including detailed information of the materials and facilities, will be different. Thus far, most studies have reported the analysis and evaluation at the detailed design stage, where detailed information about the materials installed in the building becomes clear. Therefore, it is possible to improve the accuracy of the energy environment analysis if the energy environment information generated during the life cycle of the building can be established and accurate information can be provided in the analysis at the initial design stage using a probability / statistical method. On the other hand, historical data on energy use has not been established in Korea. Therefore, this study performed energy environment analysis to construct the energy environment historical data. As a result of the research, information classification system, information model, and service model for acquiring and providing energy environment information that can be used for building lifecycle information of buildings are presented and used as the basic data. The results can be utilized in the historical data management system so that the reliability of analysis can be improved by supplementing the input information at the initial design stage. If the historical data is stacked, it can be used as learning data in methods, such as probability / statistics or artificial intelligence for energy environment analysis in the initial design stage.
