Residential buildings industry hold lots of portions in Korean construction. Accurate cost index for Residential buildings is required to understand trends of prices of the constructions and to manage budget for them effectively. So Korea Institute of Construction Technology has issued a cost index for residential buildings every six months. However It hasn't been improved although It can't reflect the actual circumstance. So we are supposed to make a new cost index for residential buildings based on statistical data extracted from bills of quantity at three different projects.

Geothermal-energy has been getting popular as a natural energy source for green buildings these days. Public building with gross area more than $3000m^2$, planned after March, 2005, should spend about 5% of total building cost for equipment run by natural energy source (e.g. geothermal, solar heat, solar power, etc) according to renewable energy promotion law in Korea. As a result geothermal-energy using heat pump system is emerging as a effective alternative for realistic and economic plan although design guidelines and construction code for the system is in progress and technical data is far from sufficient. The quantitative analysis on the performance of geothermal-energy using heat pump system is insufficient for appropriate design of it. In this paper, cooling performance of geothermal-energy using heat pump system of residential and retail etc. mixed-use building has been analyzed on the basis of temperature comparison between inlet and outlet of heat exchangers of the operating system. Additionally, dry-bulb temperature and relative humidity have been measured and analyzed together as an index of indoor thermal environment.
