Recently, there has been increasing concern for green growth and environment-friendly construction work is being revitalized; hereupon this study is going to understand the present situation of environment -friendly features of the apartment house through the case study of environment-friendly apartment house in and outside the country, and to suggest the developmental direction of the domestic apartment house. First, this study is to look into respective environment-friendly factors by considering the theoretical background of environment-friendliness and certification of environment-friendly structures, and analyzing the cases of apartment house in and outside the country. This study selected as the survey target the apartment buildings located at 5 places which were completed after 2003 and obtained the domestic 'Green Building Certification Criteria'[hereinafter, GBCC] in metropolitan areas in domestic cases and the survey target to the apartment building at 5 places which were completed after 2003 and obtained the US 'Leadership in Energy and Environment Design' [hereinafter, LEED] in overseas cases. For comparative analysis of each case, this study evaluated each case twice using GBCC and LEED to be more objective in evaluation. As a result, it was found that domestic cases focused on nature-friendly landscaping and the use of the certified products while overseas cases focused on minimizing the environmental impact such as raising the energy reduction ratio and reducing water resources and consumption of resources. Accordingly, there seems to be a need for practical energy-reduction & resources-saving scheme in order for domestic environment-friendly apartment buildings to reach the level of the LEED certification.

본 연구는 외기의 변화에 대해 쾌적성을 유지함과 동시에 열원 및 공조설비의 총 전력소비량을 최소화할 수 있는 최적 제어방법에 대한 시뮬레이션 연구를 수행하였다. 최적제어방법은 외기 건구 및 습구온도 등의 환경변수가 변할 경우 냉각수온도, 급기온도, 냉수온도 등의 제어변수 최적 설정값들이 결정되도록 함으로써 환경 변화에 따라 최대 및 부분부하운전을 적절히 수행하도록 한 것이다. TRNSYS 프로그램을 이용하여 시스템을 모델링하였으며, 본 연구에서 제시한 최적제어방법과 고정 설정값으로 운전한 기존의 방식의 제어성능을 비교 분석하였다. 연구결과로는 본 연구에서 제시한 최적제어방법이 기존 운전방식에 비해 에너지 절감 성능이 양호함을 알 수 있었다.

For the office work environmental design, the importance of the design management is increased to improve operation efficiency as well as the aesthetic environmental implementation of the function today. Lighting is a required element ineffective operation environment. It has become more important for the aesthetic, economic, and practical reasons, to consider the luminous environment and the lighting of visual tasks separately. When the brightness is insufficient, productivity deteriorates, and the layout of the lighting located by mistake causes the fatigue of eyes. Productivity rises to office in a large number of studies so as satisfaction is low in general in the dark office, and to be bright. Therefore the purpose of this research is to suggest the right direction of lighting design of office building area. 11newly renovated office buildings are selected for this luminous environment research. We could conclusions as following through this research. First, it was planned brighter than the recommended lighting level in the most space. It shows that the accurate lighting design criteria is needed in order to achieve proper lighting environment. Second, the application of the LED lighting fixtures is continuously increased in the recent office lighting environment. It is explained that it is applied for reasons of the electrical energy reduction and the maintenance efficiency with the long life time. Third, the consideration of the lighting plan for the difference of working types is not enough. with various communication configuration through an independent plan, and the effective lighting plan that appropriateness preparation design and energy saving area vailable must be applied. Fourth, the lighting environment of the lobby needs a specialized lighting plan as are presentative space of the building.

Purpose: In Korea, buildings make up 20.5% (2012) of the gross national energy consumption, so they are a major target for greenhouse gas reduction. In particular, energy consumption in multihousing represents approximately 32.6% of the entire building sector. With improving energy performance being the focus, efforts are continuously being made to reinforce standards and systems in greenhouse gas reduction. This study investigated the current status of multihousing in Korea in terms of energy performance as described in the performance evaluation reports submitted (to an institution that specializes in reviewing the performance evaluation of green homes) based on the construction criteria and performance codes for green homes and examined if the evaluation criteria using related methodologies were appropriate. The results will provide helpful information for reviewing the future directions of operations and amendments to the systems. Method: The overall characteristics of the system were examined using the evaluation methodologies (and current state of revisions) of the performance codes for green homes and comparing them with similar systems. Also, the current state of application and energy performance (conducted according to the evaluation methodologies) were compared by the evaluation institution for multihousing neighborhoods that were assessed for five years from 2010 to 2014. Result: It has been confirmed that the performance codes for green homes are different from other similar systems in evaluating performances of multihousing in that they allow both quantitative and qualitative methods of evaluation, and they consider both energy and sustainability simultaneously in the evaluation. Furthermore, regarding the adoption rate of the forms for the two evaluation methods (Form 1 - quantitative and Form 2 - qualitative), the rate preferring Form 2 increased gradually in time to reach 55.3% in 2014. In analyzing the rate of overall energy reduction (submitted in Form 1) and the coefficient of thermal transmission for each part (submitted in Form 2), it was observed that the deviation between the performance submitted and the criteria decreased in line with the level of reinforcement.

This study aims to find the causal relationship between the effects of apartment inhabitants' life management and administrative management on housing satisfaction. The study results are as follows. Firstly, life management showed to have a positive effect on life satisfaction. In other words, the better the management of public order and facilities, the higher the satisfaction of housing satisfaction. Thus, the principal agent of management needs to increase inhabitants' housing satisfaction through education and training on developing life management techniques. Secondly, administrative management showed to have a positive effect on life satisfaction. Thus, the more accurate the completion documents and management transfer process necessary for administrative management, the higher the cost-cutting effects of accounting, construction, and service contracts, the more transparent the resident agreement process in accordance with management policies, the more transparent the election process of building representatives and resident representatives, and the higher the effects of energy saving, the higher the housing satisfaction of inhabitants. This revealed that the principal agent of management needs to increase housing satisfaction through education and training on developing administrative management techniques because the level of administrative management had a positive effect on housing satisfaction. As a result, in order to create reliability between inhabitants and the principal agents of management, the transparency of administrative management such as document disclosure must be ensured, thus improving the housing satisfaction of inhabitants.

최근 에너지 절약을 화두로 건물에서의 에너지 절약기술들이 크게 요구되어 지는 반면 재실자의 온열쾌적환경은 비교적 비중 있게 다루어지지 않고 있다. 실내공간의 쾌적성은 재실자의 만족감과 더불어 생산성을 향상시키는 등의 역할을 하며, 최근 삶의 질 향상 등에 따라 그 필요성이 크게 요구되고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 공동주택을 대상으로 겨울철 난방 시 쾌적지표를 통한 실내 온열환경 제어의 타당성을 검토하고자 시뮬레이션을 수행하였으며, 주거건물에서의 일상적인 실내온도와 에너지 절약 설계기준에서 제시한 실내 설정온도, 그리고 쾌적지표를 설정으로 한 각 제어조건의 온열환경과 에너지 소비량을 비교 분석 및 검토하였다. 본 연구결과에 따르면, 쾌적지표인 PMV로 실내환경을 제어했을 때 에너지 절약설계 기준인 $22^{\circ}C$로 실내온도를 설정하였을 때보다 에너지 소비량은 29% 증가하지만 주거용 건물에서 일반적으로 유지되는 실내온도인 $24^{\circ}C$ 보다는 에너지소비량은 11% 정도 감소하며, 온열쾌적감도 각 제어조건 중 가장 우수하게 나타났다. 따라서 여러 가지 제어변수들을 통한 연구가 지속된다면 주거용 건물에서도 쾌적지표를 활용한 실내 공간의 제어방법은 건물의 에너지를 절약하고 실내 환경의 쾌적성을 증대시키는 주요기술이 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
