The Little theater in Sejong Performing Arts Center is a proscenium theater with 447 seats, which was built in 1978. The remodeling of the theater was decided in 2005 and acoustical design was conducted. Design guidelines were suggested based on the feasibility studies and acoustical measurement results. Target reverberation time was set at 1.2-1.6s with respect to the main performances. For the acoustical design, side balconies were added to increase the level of lateral reflections. Acoustic diffusers were designed and scattering coefficients were measured in a 1:10 reverberation chamber. From the results of computer simulation and a 1:10 scale model measurement, it was indicated that the new space will have RT of 1.2-1.6 s in middle frequencies when fully occupied.

Recently, remodeling of the reinforced concrete apartment became hot issue of the housing policy in Korea. In Korea, the seismic design regulation has been revised since it was established in 1988 first, in order to minimize the economic losses. It has studied that the apartments that built in 1980's and their new remodeling for seismic performance. Also lateral displacement of remodeling analysis about variation of shear-wall for apartment on the architetural remodeling. Position change by wall quantity is state that study about efficient guide line about apartment wall quantity changed at remodeling because it is factor that can influence on motion of whole building is insufficient.

Recently, Domestic construction industry is confronted with a new phase by increasement of stock and elation of the concern about environment. In particular, the focus on remodeling as an altanative of the reconstruction system that squanders resources and creates massive construction waste, has increased. However, current remodeling methods are being obstructed factor, because design has not considered the remodeling at the beginning of the construction. The purpose of this study is to search for the improvement of component joint for efficient remodeling. Field survey is conducted on the components grouped by spaces(living room/bed room/kitchen/bathroom) of unit living at 6 construction sites in Seoul & countries. As a result, total 228 component joints are selected and classified according to interface condition and problem pattern.

The aged small-sized apartment housing threats the safety and comfort of the residents. It is excluded from the scope of mandatory management under the Article 34 of the "Apartment Housing Management Act". According to various domestic statistics, the number of small-sized apartment housing is 261,203, which is about 66% of the total 396,076 residences in Korea, so it is urgent to formulate a systematic management plan including remodeling. However, support programs for old-aged small-sized apartment housing of the central government and local governments are not enough to solve the problems. This study aims to propose useful policy ideas to promote remodeling for small-sized apartment housing based on the analysis on the housing status in our country. The first suggestion is the diversification of government programs. Second is the development of remodeling industry technology, and third is a complement of the law about the remodeling of small-sized apartment housing.

Building Information Modeling (BIM) design has been mandatory in Korea since 2016, and it has been gradually expanding in the industry, with a slow attempt to apply it in remodeling constructions. This is because Korea is facing a situation where many buildings are over 30 years old and require remodeling or reconstruction. The remodeling industry is also a growing market, as it saves construction time and cost compared to reconstruction. BIM is an ideal technology element for a competitive remodeling construction, as remodeling constructions face a complicated construction process from the start, including demolition, maintenance, and reinforcement to save the change process. However, there are still limitations in applying BIM to remodeling constructions, due to considerations of the existing building and the complicated requests of the inhabitants. BIM still has technical and environmental limitations for general use. In this study, I analyzed BIM application cases from existing studies and suggest what improvement points should be strengthened.

This study is purposed on applying to certifying environmental-friendly buildings about remodeling schools as an issue recently, keeping up a worldwide resource conservation movement. Application standard is directed, comparing with systems certifying green-schools in domestic and foreign policies. The following is the primary result of this study. First, on developing systems for certifying environmental-friendly buildings about remodeling schools, characteristics like ‘the phase of certifying essential lists and the diversity of certifying lists’, ‘developing departmentally into new-building, reconstruction, remodeling, existing-building in basic data’, ‘development of certifying existing-buildings as well as new-building’ in foreign systems should be developed appropriately for Korea. Next, not only reuse of the existing facilities but better assessment through diversification of classified contents in domestic system are carried out in comparing remodeling lists. Especially the primary list that is found out commonly limited lists certifying remodeling should be developed appropriately. Impossible lists getting certification should be applied to map out a concrete standard. Lastly, the range of certification should be diversified and developed sustainable like other systems for better assessment. Adding various lists suiting for Korea and departmentalizing score of phases and items in particular, for avoiding a needless collision between certification lists, absence of them. Above of all, basic direction about certifying environmental-friendly buildings about remodeling schools should be developed the only individual instrument, not for gaining it simply as a part of the environmental policy in Korea. This study has significance on vitalization of certifying environmental-friendly buildings, which performing primary environmental-friendly education facilities, based on its advance.

Recently, a series of massive earthquakes have been occurred northeast Asia and there has also been constant sensible earthquakes in South Korea. Particularly, after diagnosing educational facilities with Sichuan earthquake momentum, remodeling construction of old educational facilities and buildings which were not designed not to resist earthquake are actively underway. Remodeling construction sites, however, are mostly small construction sites which consist of less than 30 full-time laborers, where a number of deaths from a fall occur by improper uses of protective gear. Therefore, to reduce the disaster from a fall caused by inadequate uses of protective gear in domestic small construction sites such as those for remodeling, this study conducts research into ways of decreasing accident rates by suggesting providing and administering protective gear as a national project so that donning protective gear is activated.

Recently, the demand of construction a new hospital is apt to decrease in the rate of increase. The demand changes quantitative expansion into seeking quality of more pleasant healing environment. Special conditions should be taken into consideration when we remodeling the hospital, because it has special and complicated equipment system. Also, newly invented medical instruments cause extension and reconstruction of a building, therefore construction of hospital continued growth and variation. Hospitals of small-to-middle size are changing to correspond on patients' request under these environment. Now we have little awareness and experience about remodeling yet, and systematic research is insufficient. Therefore, this study is aiming to purpose a data of future hospital construction plan and suitable hospital remodeling's plan direction through analysis of done medium and small scale hospitals.

Many Japanese came to Kunsan city and built a lot of houses in Japanese style there in 1900's. Korean have lived in the house according to Japanese's leaving after restoration of independence. This study is purposed to describe remodeling of the houses by case study, through interview, survey and taking photographs. After Korean dwelling at the houses, there are lots of changes of facilities, interior materials and almost all of inside and outside of the houses. It was deduced that the reasons of the remodeling were likely to be different climate, life style between two peoples and economic power.
