A recent research trend on the Daylight Responsive Dimming Systems, using available daylight for energy savings, is to integrate automated roller shading systems and venetian blind systems which are vertically controlling daylight to indoor based on sun profile angle. Therefore, this paper suggests Grating Louver System into a pair glass as a new shading system, which can control daylight vertically and horizontally. The optimized spacing of louvers, which is to block direct sunlight into a space, was calculated. And then, the system was simulated for analysis and evaluation of characteristics of daylight by Desktop Radiance 2.0.

The purpose of this study is to improve the fire prevention performance using the fire venetian blind louver subjected to burning by fire flame. The investigation is based on testing 2 full scale specimens, which is $3m{\times}3m$ module, $850mm{\times}1,500mm$ open, and $900mm{\times}900mm{\times}175mm$ venetian blind louver. Two louver thickness (1.5 and 2.0mm) were adopted. The specimens were exposed to fire flame temperature levels of ISO834 at the lower surface of the fire venetian blind louver specimens with exposure duration of one hour in Korea Institute of Construction Technology (KICT). It was found from the test results that the values of distributed temperature, decreased for all specimens for protecting to fire flame by venetian blind louver. The results of tests were a good fire prevention performance between in initial to 6 mins. At 60 minutes around ISO 834 fire loading, the percentages of distributed temperature in 500mm and 800mm height ranged between 11 and 10% respectively, regardless of louver thickness. This study, therefore, will improve the fire venetian blind louver for fire protection and prevention performance.

Energy loss from windows accounts for large scores of heating and cooling loads also in energy saving apartments that is reduced over 30% of total energy consumption. Movable reflective insulations, insulation shutters, blinds, insulated shades are used to reduce energy loads from windows. In this study, energy saving performance of insulated shades was simulated by control methods. According to installation of insulated shades, heating loads were decreased about 10.5~11.3%, and cooling loads are decreased about 29.1~38.3% on an energy saving apartment. The heating peak load was reduced about 9.5% by insulated shades and the cooling peak load was reduced about 25.7~31.5%. In the case of insulated shades with automatic control system, simple time schedule control system would be more efficient than outdoor detection control system that should use several sensors.

Energy loss from windows accounts for large scores of heating and cooling loads also in energy saving apartments that is reduced over 30% of total energy consumption. Movable reflective insulations, insulation shutters, blinds, insulated shades are used to reduce energy loads from windows. In this study, energy saving performance of insulated shades was simulated by control methods. According to installation of insulated shades, heating loads were decreased about $10.5{\sim}11.3%$, and cooling loads are decreased about $11.0{\sim}15.5%$ on an energy saving apartment. The heating peak load was reduced about 9.5% by insulated shades, but the cooling peak load is hardly ever decreased. Because in the condition of cooling peak load, latent cooling loads accounts for large score of cooling loads. Difference of the energy loads by a schedule control method and an outdoor detection control was no more than 5% for a base model. In the case of insulated shades with automatic control system, simple time schedule control system would be more efficient than outdoor detection control system that should use several sensors.

Glass Envelope is vulnerable to insulation performance and controling solar radiation. Insulation performance is consistently improving these days due to recent building energy saving policy in South Korea. However, solar control at glass envelope is still limited to meeting requirements of ideal high performance. Generally, Inside Blind plays an important role of solar control instead of glass which have a characteristics of transmitted solar. Unfortunately, most of them are controled by occupants and which method is not resonable in building energy. Therefore, achieving the high efficient performance building, automated control blind system considering reduction of building loads have to be adopted. Furthermore, considering occupants visual comport about removing discomfort glare is also essential.

This study was to investigate the pedestrian's thermal environments in the North Sidewalk of E-W Street during summer heatwave. We carried out detailed measurements with four human-biometeorological stations on Dongjin Street, Jinju, Korea ($N35^{\circ}10.73{\sim}10.75^{\prime}$, $E128^{\circ}55.90{\sim}58.00^{\prime}$, elevation: 50m). Two of the stations stood under one row street tree and hedge(One-Tree), two row street tree and hedge (Two-Tree), one of the stations stood under shelter and awning(Shelter), while the other in the sun (Sunlit). The measurement spots were instrumented with microclimate monitoring stations to continuously measure microclimate, radiation from the six cardinal directions at the height of 1.1m so as to calculate the Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI) from 24th July to 21th August 2018. The radiant temperature of sidewalk's elements were measured by the reflective sphere and thermal camera at 29th July 2018. The analysis results of 9 day's 1 minute term human-biometeorological data absorbed by a man in standing position from 10am to 4pm, and 1 day's radiant temperature of sidewalk elements from 1:16pm to 1:35pm, showed the following. The shading of street tree and shelter were mitigated heat stress by the lowered UTCI at mid and late summer's daytime, One-Tree and Two-Tree lowered respectively 0.4~0.5 level, 0.5~0.8 level of the heat stress, Shelter lowered respectively 0.3~1.0 level of the heat stress compared with those in the Sunlit. But the thermal environments in the One-Tree, Two-Tree and Shelter during the heat wave supposed to user "very strong heat stress" while those in the Sunlit supposed to user "very strong heat stres" and "exterme heat stress". The main heat load temperature compared with body temperature ($37^{\circ}C$) were respectively $7.4^{\circ}C{\sim}21.4^{\circ}C$ (pavement), $14.7^{\circ}C{\sim}15.8^{\circ}C$ (road), $12.7^{\circ}C$ (shelter canopy), $7.0^{\circ}C$ (street funiture), $3.5^{\circ}C{\sim}6.4^{\circ}C$ (building facade). The main heat load percentage were respectively 34.9%~81.0% (pavement), 9.6%~25.2% (road), 24.8% (shelter canopy), 14.1%~15.4% (building facade), 5.7% (street facility). Reducing the radiant temperature of the pavement, road, building surfaces by shading is the most effective means to achieve outdoor thermal comfort for pedestrians in sidewalk. Therefore, increasing the projected canopy area and LAI of street tree through the minimal training and pruning, building dense roadside hedge are essential for pedestrians thermal comfort. In addition, thermal liner, high reflective materials, greening etc. should be introduced for reducing the surface temperature of shelter and awning canopy. Also, retro-reflective materials of building facade should be introduced for the control of reflective sun radiation. More aggressively pavement watering should be introduced for reducing the surface temperature of sidewalk's pavement.

In this study, mortar test specimens were produced by varying the mixing ratio of CO₂ reaction hardening cement (CSC) and general cement (OPC), and the mechanical and carbonation characteristics were evaluated by controlling the primary curing temperature and secondary curing CO₂ pressure. Under all curing conditions, it was observed that the higher the CSC ratio in the binder, the lower the mechanical properties. Specifically, a first curing temperature of 60 ℃ yielded higher mechanical properties compared to the case of 20 ℃, and a greater carbonation penetration depth was also observed. At a first curing temperature of 60 ℃, it was noted that the curing pressure and bending strength during the second CO₂ curing were inversely proportional, while the compressive strength showed a proportional relationship. This phenomenon is believed to be due to excessive carbonation, which reduces mechanical properties, and the fact that flexural strength is more sensitive to these properties compared to compressive strength. However, based on the evaluation of the limited curing conditions, it is evident that future test conditions need to be expanded and reviewed more thoroughly.
