On July 2004, the brand new CASBEE for construction (Brief version) has completed while trying to highlight and improve major items adequate for each region's characteristics in Japan; at the same time, from the start of NAGOYA CITY (operated since April 2004) to the point of May 2011, it has been mandatory for specified size buildings in 23 regions by law. Evaluation sheet of CASBEE is published on each region's home page and various genre of information on building evaluation which is scheduled to be completed by 2016 and is for 5-6 years of quantity is accumulated until October 2012. It is good study resource to verify how new buildings being evaluated are closely match with CASBEE's original purport (eco-friendly, energy efficiency, publicity etc). Particularly, for Japan's multi-family housing where small sized mid to high level single housing type is majority in city, it is an important point that improved performance on eco-friendly buildings have more value in city rather than suburb. Categorized score through evaluation is a resource to confirm the latest trend of multi-family housing built in congested city; on the other hand, demand of the time can be recognized by the score focused on category. It is meaningful resource to determine the adequacy of evaluated items and the degree of reality.

This study measured consumer's recognition, reliability, emotion and images about current eco-marks as well proposed an eco-mark rating scale and mark designs to improve consumer's trust on the fashion product marks. We used a questionnaire survey to collect data from 150 persons about knowledge, interests, and practice on eco fashion products in relation to trustfulness and positive images for three domestic and three international eco-marks. We evaluated and gave eco scores to six fiber-type products (cotton, organic cotton, wool, polyester, biodegradable polyester and nylon) in terms of consumer's use, water & land consumption, waste amount, carbon footprint, and toxicity. We suggested a new 5-level rating scale for eco marks, which quantified the concept of environmental friendliness of fiber products. The design for eco-mark of rating scale showed the total grade with two sub scores of environmental sides and human sides developed with an improved visual understanding for consumers. The design is one through benchmarking the energy-consumption efficiency mark, which is familiar to consumers such as a half circle shape to save environment resources to alarm consumers to environment problems.

우리나라의 경우 비점오염원에 의한 오염부하 기여도가 점차 증가하면서 '06년 관련 법규 개정을 통해 일정 규모 이상의 개발사업에 대해서는 비점오염저감시설 설치를 의무화하였으며, '11년 기준 국내에는 약 6,000여개 이상의 저감시설이 설치되었다. 해당 시설에 대한 모니터링 결과 장치형에 비해 자연형이 처리효율 및 유지관리 측면에서 유리한 것으로 보고되면서 환경부는 개발사업에 대해 저영향개발기법(LID)의 적용을 의무화하는 방안을 추진 중이다. 개발사업에 있어 LID는 토지이용기법을 통해 우수 유출과 오염원 유출을 저감하고자 하는 기법으로, 비용 및 유지관리 측면에서는 유리하나 기존 단위시설 적용기법에 비해 계획적인 요소가 강해 적용 확대 및 의무화가 용이하지 않은 한계가 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 LID 적용 확대와 관련된 문제점을 분석하고 적용 의무화를 위해 필요한 대안을 모색해 보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 해당 기법 자체가 가지는 한계와 제도적인 문제점을 분석하였으며, LID 기법의 확대 적용을 위해 필요한 대안을 제안하였다. 분석 결과, LID 기법은 기존 장치형 시설에 비해 계획기법의 측면이 커 기술개발이 어려울 뿐만 아니라, 저감시설의 적용여부에 대한 검증도 곤란한 것으로 분석되었다. 또한, 처리효율 계량화가 어려워 오염총량제와 연계된 오염부하 삭감효과 인정이 곤란해 확대 적용에 한계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 상기의 분석결과에 근거할 때, LID 기법의 확대 적용은 국내의 제도적 여건 및 LID 기법 자체의 한계를 감안하여 단계적으로 추진되어야 할 것으로 판단되며, 조속한 확대 시행을 위해서는 다음의 방안 마련을 제안한다. 첫째, 적용 여부에 대한 판단이 모호한 단점을 보완하기 위해 적정 적용여부를 심의할 수 있는 인증제도 도입을 제안한다. 이 제도는 친환경건축물인증제도 등 기존 유사 제도에 항목을 추가하는 방법과 별도의 제도를 신설하는 방법이 가능할 것이다. 둘째, 처리효율 정량화를 위해 기존 농도 위주의 처리효율 개념을 벗어나 유량 개념의 처리효율 산정이 필요하다. 즉, 처리용량 범위내에서 외부에 유출없이 우수저류 및 침투가 가능한 경우 전량 처리되는 것으로 간주하는 방식이다. 연구결과로 제안한 LID 기법 적용에 대한 인증제도 마련과 유량개념의 처리효율 산정방안이 도입된다면, 보다 조속한 시일내 LID 기법의 확대 적용이 가능할 것이다.

As design tools, building performance certification systems can be applied to provide adequate guidelines on design process to create environment-friendly buildings. Domestic certification systems of residential building took effect by doing supply to designers and contractors from affiliated organization of governments in the early 2000s. As a result, Building Energy Rating System, Apartment Performance Rating System, Green Homes and other means to promote green designs have been operated. International trends of applying certification systems were started in the early 1990s as forms of LEED in USGBC, BREEAM in BRE, GBTool Canada. These systems aim to evaluate building performance in line with the Climatic Change Convention and realize sustainable building design. In 2009, residential buildings accounted for the largest portion of the internal real estate market with 67.9 percent according to the National Statistical Office data. And for 18 years since 1991, apartments among constructed residential buildings have ranked top taking up 77.7% as of 2009. Apartment performance evaluations accordingly are to promote to constitution of improving tenant quality of life, the residential environment and saving energy and resources in the internal building market.

This study is expected to provide some basic data on how to apply more economical and efficient eco-friendly factors to reduce the carbon emissions. It has been scrutinized and analyzed the environmental factors of passive eco-friendly elements along with active eco-friendly elements as more efficient factors for energy conservation based on the case of a newly constructed broadcasting building with the green building certification in Sangam-dong DMC area. The first analysis was the energy consumption trends in Korea and the necessity of energy saving. Secondly, it was examined the energy consumption in the current status of the broadcasting building. Thirdly, it was looked into the correlation between the eco-friendly design application factors applied to the broadcasting building and the energy consumption types. As a result of the analysis, the application of fan and feed pump inverter along with ventilation system of waste heat recovery ventilation system were more meaningful in accordance with the economic feasibility of broadcasting buildings rather than economical effect of passive elements such as rooftop garden, reinforcement of building insulation. Also, the application of lighting control had the economical feasibility. Therefore, when it is intended to change the green building certification energy related evaluation items of the similar broadcasting building types, it is necessary to change the direction of adding weight to the more economical active element items in the future.
