This study examines the assessment systems of LEED v4.1, an eco-friendly building evaluation system in the United States, and SITE v2, an assessment system for sustainable outdoor spaces, and then compares and examines them from the perspective ofrelevant laws and institutional guidelines and standards in Korea. The conclusion is as follows. First, the US eco-friendly certification system basically not only establishes an independent evaluation system according to the field of expertise, but also provides a sustainable city and community through response to the climate crisis and the comfort of the external space environment. It can be evaluated that securing the quality of life of healthy and happy city dwellers is the top priority. Second, Korea's Green Building Certification System (G-LEED) was basically based on the American LEED system, but it was judged that there was a fundamental difference. It was judged that there is a limitation in not being able to achieve an integrated approach through the participation of various expert groups and stakeholders, but also in the accumulation of more scientific and reliable data and information through the application of cutting-edge information and communication equipment. Third, in the case of external space in Korea, a sustainable assessment system has not been established, and not only is it dispersed in various legal and institutional guidelines, but also its effectiveness is judged to be very low. Therefore, it is judged that it is urgent to introduce and secure the applicability of SITES v2, a sustainable outdoor space assessment system in the United States. It was judged that the effectiveness should be secured through the upward adjustment of the minimum Ecological Area Ratio.

Since the 1990s, discussions regarding green libraries started in the U.S.A, in the name of 'library and the environment', 'Green librarians', 'constructing of environmental sources', 'noise and library', 'building libraries as an environmental alternative' and etc. Currently, green libraries certified by an evaluation system are more than 50. This study proposes a direction to build a green library. The study analyzes national and international green libraries certified by the evaluation system. The cases are analyzed based on the six evaluation factors in the LEED certification system; Sustainable Site, Water Efficiency, Energy and Atmosphere, Material and Resources, Indoor Environmental Quality, Innovation and Design Process. Since the evaluation system focuses mainly on the architectural aspects, there was a need of expanding the concept of eco-friendly in this research. The newly expanded eco-friendly concept includes services, content, and supplies of libraries.

The purpose of this study is to describe the trends and contents of literature in green library and to suggest the research direction on green library. Earlier studies focus on the green library architecture and necessity, after then green library management studies have proliferated. Green library architecture studies have emphasized on 'energy and atmosphere' and 'indoor environmental quality' based upon 5 categories of LEED evaluation system. Green library management studies have focused on library resources recycling and utilizing energy through effective management of library collection. Based on the analysis of literature, five research directions are suggested, such as the number of libraries in an area, library shelf position and space, library space program, collection ratio for library storage, and user studies.

This paper is to draw basic data for the revitalization of the sustainable buildings and the improvement of sustainable building design technology in Korea by analysing the design techniques of sustainable building and the application of the techniques applied to the large volume buildings through the study of foreign cases. This study introduces the design elements of sustainable building applied to the two winter sports stadia and one convention centre which have recently completed for the 2010 Winter Olympics in Canada and analyses the design techniques of sustainable building by the lists of LEED Green Building Rating System as well.

SWG(Smart Water Grid)는 한정적인 수자원을 효율적으로 이용하고 사용자 입맛에 맞춰 물을 안정적으로 공급하고자 하는 양방향 개념으로 수자원 분야에서 각광받는 실정이다. SWG의 성능을 평가하는 연구사례는 많지 않으며 현재 국내의 경우 실증단지를 구축하고 있는 단계이다. 그러므로 성능평가를 수행하기 위한 실측자료가 부재하므로 성능평가 지표선정에 활용 할 수 있는 자료가 제한적이다. 따라서 미국의 Leed, 영국의 BREEAM, 일본의 CASBEE, 호주의 Green Star의 인증 기준에서 수자원에 대한 항목과 기존의 IWA, World Bank, AWWA, JWWA, OFWAT 같은 해외 상수도 수행능 지표와 상수도 및 정수장 기술진단에서 제시하는 기준을 바탕으로 성능평가지표를 선정 보완하여 Water Facility Index, Smart Index, Optimum System Index로 분류하여 각 세부의 성능평가지표를 선정하였다. 선정된 지표는 AHP기법를 활용하여 1-4단계에 걸쳐 계층화를 실시하고 Bottom-up방식으로 4단계에서부터 1단계로 평가를 진행하도록 구성했다. 4단계에서는 계층 별 쌍대비교 결과를 바탕으로 중요도에 따른 가중치를 부여하고 차등 점수를 적용하며, 이는 3단계에서 필수적으로 만족해야하는 지표들을 설정하고 평가하기 위해 사용된다. 3단계에서는 지표평가 후 "보통" 이상의 점수를 획득해야 2단계로 진행할 수 있고, 2단계에서는 3가지 큰 지표를 설정 후 총점 기준 60%이상의 최소득점 기준을 만족해야 1단계로 진행할 수 있도록 구성했다. 이러한 절차를 바탕으로 마지막 1단계에서는 100점을 만점으로 하는 6단계의 최종성능을 평가하는 결과를 제시할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 국외 성능평가 사례 중 SWG와 관련된 지표를 구성하여 성능평가를 수행할 수 있는 기법을 제안하였다. 향후 지속적인 연구 진행 결과와 실측자료를 수집하여 수정 및 보완이 수행될 예정이다.

The seriousness of greenhouse gas exhaustions and energy use of the building has increased, the world is making an effort with many requests and the consultation for sustainable development. For this reason, Green Building Certification Criteria has been implemented to reduce environmental load, high-performance and environmentally friendly in the United States, the United Kingdom and Germany. In response to the global trend like this, the Korean Government has induced the eco-friendly construction and sustainable development to implement the G-SEED (Green Building Certification Criteria of Korea) in 2002. However, in spite of the many authentication result, G-SEED has been pointed out that it needs for improve in the evaluation system of Apartment sector which accounts for more than 40% of the authentication. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to suggest improvements in the evaluation system. To achieve this, this study have selected for LEED, BREEAM, DGNB of comparison target, drawn improvements through comparing transition process in G-SEED.

While many assessment systems for buildings and indoor environment have been created with increasing interest in sustainable development, assessments for sustainable landscaping and outdoor environments have received less attention. Recently, the Sustainable Site Initiatives(SITES) was developed in the USA in order to evaluate and certify sustainable landscape design projects. The purposes of this study are to analyze sustainable landscape strategies and to review the certification system through case studies of SITES certified projects. Three certified projects in Texas were selected and literature review, site visits and interview were conducted. The results indicated that various sustainable and practical strategies were applied including soil preservation, use of native plants and recycled materials, and water harvesting. Also, SITES has benefits to encourage an integrated design process, community participation, and environmental education for the public. This suggests that a certification system for landscaping and outdoor environments needs to be developed to ensure sustainable site development, which helps extend the roles of the landscape architecture profession in sustainable design.
