Recently, large residental buildings including high-rise apartment and a multi-business and commercial-residential building are appearing in the form of Korean construction work. According to this large-size trend a tenn and cost of construction works was largely increased. Therefore, studies of techniques construction management for successful project are lively being progressed. This study introduced Just-In-Time form and Lean Construction concept in order to establish management system of a house construction work taking up much portion on aspects of work scale and materials transportation in finishing works of high-rise residental building architecture. The process of house construction works will be analyzed with these two principles for productivity improvement and then the improvement plan will be suggested. This analysis and proposal can induce the flow of finishing works smoothly and contribute to success of project through saving of a tenn and cost of construction works.

One of the most important elements in creating the pleasant residential environment is the wind. For the pleasant residential environment, it is important that the air pollutants are not stagnant but appropriately and swiftly diffused and removed by winds. Especially, the river becomes a main route of wind in the urban core. So, it is necessary to secure the space to circulate the sufficient cool air to this area. But, recently many high-rise apartment complexes have been built along the rivers that have the fine view and pleasant environment. As a result, the cool and fresh air coming from mountains hardly diffuses into the urban core but just flows along the river. Considering the facts above, this study selected types of building layout and kind of land cover as complex or architectural design factors that have an influence on wind environment. Based on the factors, it analyzed change in wind environment according to apartment complex development aiming at the Sinchun area which is Daegu Metropolitan City's main wind corridor. Therefore, when apartment complex development is planned in the future, it can offer basic data for establishing plans for more pleasant complexes. As a result of the analysis, it was shown that the layout type of housing and the building height plan in consideration of wind corridor around the river were pretty effective in increasing the wind speed and circulating the air in the apartment complex. Therefore, if wind corridor is considered when apartment complex development is planed in the future, this study can offer useful information contributing to improve comfort in residential environment in the level of complex building as well as city planning.

The paper proposes alternatives for fire safety in architectural planning through heat-smoke distribution related to openings so that we decrease casualty and property loss by fire and lay a great emphasis on building high-rise apartments with consideration of fire safety in Korea. An analysis program(HFA-Heat Fluid Analysis) is built to perform simultaneously numerical analysis and experimental analysis on rooms, units and buildings. In consequence, on the first, fire prevention methods are required to be set up related to openings for design rooms since the flow of heat and smoke is influenced by the type of openings in high-rise apartments. Second, the numerical analysis showed that different planning types cause to show differences in the spreading time of heat and smoke to design the units of high-rise apartments. On the third, each unit building showed different fire behavior depending on openings by numerical analysis and small scaled experiment on heat and smoke flow.

The structural system of domestic high-rise apartments can be divided into two parts; the core wall system, which is composed of walls concentrated in the center and the shear wall system, which comprises a great number of walls distributed in the plan. In order to analyze the lateral behavior of each system, buildings with typical domestic high-rise apartment plans were selected and nonlinear static analysis was performed to investigate the their collapse mechanism. From the force-displacement relation derived from nonlinear static analysis, response modification factor was evaluated by calculating the overstrengh and ductility factor, which are important in the seismic response. The ductility of core wall system is small, but as it is governed by wind load, its overstrength is greatly estimated, and its response modification factor is calculated by the overstrengh factor. Due to a large number of walls, shear wall system has a large ductility, making the response modification factor considerably large.

Since 1970's rapid urbanization and economic growth, the population was highly increased and residential type was changed from single detached house to high density and high-rise apartment. Recently more high-rise residential building generates more traffic volumes and it makes spatial concentration. The highly traffic volumed road and high residential building was constructed nearby, it occurs noise problem. The purpose of this study is comparing the performance of three type noise barrier between noise source and receiver using a noise map simulation. Three types were composed as road side planting trees, building side planting trees and noise barrier wall. Planting trees is less effective than noise barrier wall as a noise barrier. And they are all effective under 3 stories than over 5 stories, especially noise barrier function can't work over 5 stories.

Dynamic elastoplastic LPM (lumped parameter mass) analyses are carried out in order to investigate the seismic resistant performance of a typical high-rise shear wall apartment subjected to several earthquakes. Three-dimensional nonlinear pushover analysis is adopted to estimate initial elastic stiffness, yielding strength and post-yielding stiffness of each story for the time history analysis of LPM shear model. For the hysteresis of each story, Clough and bilinear models are used with the input of four recorded earthquake ground motions of EI Centro 1940 NS, Taft 1952 EW, Hachinohe 1968 NS and Kobe 1995 NS, of which the amplitudes are scaled down to have the same maximum ground velocity of 12 kine. The result shows that yieldings take place in most storys of the building, i.e. the earthquake resistant capacity of this high-rise shear wall apartment is not sufficient at the event of earthquake M=5~6.

The 70-story high-rise apartment on Ryomyong Street, Pyongyang was completed in just 75 days, which has raised questions about its structural safety. This study was conducted to find an answer to this question and to contribute to inter-Korean construction cooperation in the future. As a result of analyzing data from Google Earth and North Korean publicity, it could be estimated that there were no problems with the application of shallow foundations, construction speed including concrete strength and curing period, and structural safety until at least May 2022 under several conditions. This means the possibility that the North Korean style high-rise apartment construction method could be understood by South Korean standards, which could help successfully carry out the joint construction project by applying the North Korean style construction and minimizing the transfer of South Korean resources in the future.

Nowdays the apartment is a main type of modernized residential buildings. According to the improvement of construction techniques and functions of windows and doors, recent apartments are enhanced air tightness of windows, doors and building envelopes. As Infiltration is decreased and natural ventilation is reduced, energy could be saved in winter. However, indoor air quality is bad. The air Infiltration of a building could be enlarged by physical actions, such as building designs, constructions and reduction of air tightness which is caused by aging. This research analyzes and measures with KNS-4000P (Sapporo air tightness measurement) the air tightness of the high rise apartments which is recently constructed and not occupied yet. With depressurization method, the KNS-4000 installed on the window and the indoor air-leakage was measured. At that time, Air come out from the edge of the windows and doors because of the pressure differences between indoor and outdoor. We measure the amount of the air as effective air leakage areas. This method of depressurization takes less time to measure than other methods and is less affected from other conditions. We measured infiltration of total 56 household, 29 households S apartment (total floor area : $64.42m^2$) in Balan and 29 households D apartment(total floor area : $78.21m^2$) in Chonan. As a result of the field measurements at October 2003, normalized leakage area of D apartment in Cheonan was $2.05cm^2/m^2{\sim}3.49cm^2/m^2$ (average: $2.77cm^2/m^2$) and normalized leakage area of S apartment in Balan is $1.23cm^2/m^2{\sim}1.68cm^2/m^2$ (average: $1.5cm^2/m^2$).

Recently, apartment designs are tend to be changed from the standard pattern by many causes and the beam-column structures are getting popular instead of wall structure system. Therefore, for the effective use of planed space the heights of apartment are tend to be higher and higher. According to Korea Building Code, earthquake resistance designs or seismic design for those high rise apartments must be more attentive and accurate, especially, dynamic periods of structures must be exactly measured, because those are very important for equivalent static analysis. The important subject of this study is to investigate the safety factors and seismic performance for natural period of high rise buildings by comparing the natural periods getting from ambient vibration method with those of Korea Building Code.
