This research is focused on the 'Resident-participated Workshop' which targets the improvement of residential environment of apartment complex from the residents' point of view. The purpose of the workshop is to induce the residents interest and encourage them to participate in design process, thus, residents will be satisfied with the result with affection and achievement. This research aims the effectiveness of 'Resident-participated' design plan as a program which enables them to maintain and self manage in the long run. The object of this research was the public space within the apartment complex of Susojugong Rental Apartment Complex in Gangnam-ku, Seoul and followings are the contents; 1. Method of 'Resident-participated Workshop'. 2. Program of 'Resident-participated Workshop'. 3. Design analysis of improved apartment complex through 'Resident-participated Workshop' and selection. As a result, it was noticeable that 'Resident-participated Workshop' was an important factor in decision making of designs from the very first stage through communication. As a part of workshop program, design game used cubic models which was useful to enhance the understanding of the participants. It also induced the cubic conception so that intercommunication with the design specialists was possible. But, the development of various workshop method to increase the residents' interest and participation is necessary, especially, program development is required to change the residents' attitude towards the design plan. It is anticipated that a continuous related research is neccsary in this regard.

In Korea, the apartment supplier should satisfy the apartment residents' demand on the defect repair found in apartment housing by the law of Management of Apartment Complexs. But in the cost of defect repair, not only the actual defect repair cost, but also the cost of residents' complains are contained. So in this analytic study, the actual use state of defect deposite during 4~10 years after moving in are analysed base on actual data of 15 apartment complexes. In this study, about 66% of defect repair deposites are used to actual defect repair and only 34% of defect repair cost are spent to satisfy the demand of apartment residents'.

In order to determine the violation of right of light impact at adjacent residential area by high-rise building, analysis on the right of light for high-rise residential commercial complex building block at Gahngnam-ku, Seoul, Korea was carried out using Google Sketchup Pro. After the analysis th sunshine duration of B apartment decreased from 5 hours 16 minutes 3 hours 48 minutes by I hour 42 minutes after construction. It shows that the total sunshine duration is less than the Seoul City Government Standard which is more than 4 hours a day, or more than 2 consecutive hours. Lowering the heights of apartments by 54m would increase the total sunshine duration which would meet the Seoul City Government Standard by four hours seven minutes. Problems that rna lead to the violation on the right of light in the adjacent area should be discussed in advance and minimized by analyzing the right of light among buildings and structures which are scheduled to be constructed on the site during construction penni! process when high-rise building is proposed.

The purpose of this study is to present the direction of the plan to transform the residential complex into a space that can provide an open residential environment that can lead to social communication and exchange without being closed to the urban residential environment, especially in the apartment complex environment, which is becoming more dense. As a result of the Openness analysis of the 'Codan Shinonome Canal Court', the overall accessibility was good in terms of space utilization, and the openness was low in terms of the spatial composition, which is a physical environment due to the dense block type. When looking at the overall openness of the Codan Sinonome complex in terms of analysis by block, the corrected openness index (C.O.I) for all six blocks was 0.245, the corrected accessibility index (C.A.I) was 1.447 and the openness composite index (O.C.I) was assessed at 1.692. This was due to the formation of high-density block-type urban dwellings and the introduction of S-shaped streets and the layout of low-rise urban support facilities and commercial facilities. The Codan Sinonome Canal Court, which is considered an "open city residence," quantitatively confirmed that it embodies macro-space structure and human-scale space environment even in high-precision environments.

Space extension and the increase of the number of households are helpful to raise business value of the remodeling through the renovation of apartment houses that is required by residents of new cities and large-scaled apartment. However, in the case of accepting this demand, it could have a bad influence on the landscape of a complex in terms of the structure of apartment houses and the safety of construction and urban planning, and a problem occurs in the aspect of fairness for reconstruction. For the study, the current status related to the remodeling system through laws, related articles since 2000 and research data was analyzed. In addition, the individual quantitative analysis was conducted in the four aspects to judge whether households expansion for remodeling is plausible:1) Statistical data to comprehend the changes of population and social structure 2) Survey data of floor space index and the building-to-land ratio of new cities at the intial stage for the review of the effect of architectural planning and urban environment 3) Surveys of experts on structural safety in order to judge whether the demand of expansion is accepted or not. 4) Quantitative analysis of each item to compare fairness with reconstruction. Therefore, this study is intended to understand problems of the remodeling system that is currently operated. Moreover, it will be further reviewed that the expansion of households is feasible through the permission of expansion and it will be discussed that the revitalization of the apartment remodeling has a positive impact on the residential environment.

This research has been implemented based on the area of #369 Dowon-dong, Dalseo-gu, Dae-gu which is considered as a place with satisfactory characteristics for the flow of fresh air into the city. Simulations of the target area both prior to the development plan and after apartment complex blocking were analyzed in regard to blocking planning and pilotis based on the main direction of wind, $90^{\circ}$ (east wind) and $180^{\circ}$ (south wind). In addition, congested wind corridor flow in the target place was identified through a pollution spread simulation according to the wind corridor. Therefore, the flow of wind in the one area is affected by the blocking of the complex and the main direction of the wind. Also blocking, in regard of pilotis, provides a better flow of wind. This study was implemented based on wind formation by apartment complex planning, so further study on the other factors affecting the flow of a wind corridor along with block planning and pilotis need to be carried out. Sustainable environmental factors through analysis of the environmental factors have to be analyzed. Moreover, building and complementing fundamental resources and systematic devices should be supported.

In order to address housing issues, alleviate the concentration of urban populations, and resolve other issues regarding residential spaces, large residential complexes have been developed in Korea since the 1970s. The changes to the residential culture due to such development projects propagated rapidly, making the apartment complexes the most representative form of housing in Korea. In developing such large-scale complexes, plans for public open spaces, which play an important role in formulating the quality of residential environment, have been mostly the same, only utilizing the spaces remaining after planning other types of spaces. The current study looks at the case of Tama New Town development project, a Japanese new town development project that has a similar public open space system in large scale residential complex development projects in Korea. In doing so, the current study aims to identify the features of public open space plans. In the conclusion, the study first finds that various public open spaces must be reviewed and introduced in term of predicting social demands. Second, the study suggests the policy-makers should actively introduce pedestrian paths as a public open space. Third, the study deduces the planning implications of applying the principle of original landscape preservation.

The sustained upkeep of apartment buildings necessitates ongoing maintenance and timely repairs, particularly given their complex nature due to extensive areas, common facilities, and multiple residential and service structures. Additionally, the need for cost-effective maintenance is paramount for ensuring safety, preserving value, and maintaining economic efficiency. However, the multitude of external variables influencing apartment complex maintenance, coupled with the challenges in data collection, have resulted in limited research in this domain. To address this gap, the current study aims to develop a framework for predicting maintenance costs utilizing deep learning techniques, grounded in real-world apartment complex maintenance cost data. This study intends to provide a practical and valuable contribution to the field of apartment complex management, empowering stakeholders with enhanced predictive capabilities for optimizing maintenance strategies and resource allocation.

Purpose: This study was conducted to figure out the cognitive characteristics of the elderly living in apartment complex in order to construct basic data for the design of sustainable and age friendly apartment area. Methods: Cognitive map was used to identify and analyze the elderly residents' status of residential environment cognitions. The elderly living in Gongreung-dong apartment was randomly interviewed outdoor area and requested to draw cognitive maps on their living environment. 26 valid cognitive maps collected were analyzed, classified into two different types: Line type and Dot type. The average age, cognitive distance, length of residence, number of elements in the map(complexity) were then compared by Line and Dot type, as well as by gender. Correlations among variables also were analysed. Results: Males showed a tendency to draw dot types, which means they are place-centered, and females drew line types more than males, which means they are way-centered. The average cognitive distance of male group was greater than that of female group. As the age went up, the number of perceived place and the cognitive distance decreased. Oder people tended to draw line types rather than dot types. As the cognitive distance was longer, the perceived place and the number of lines increased. Implications: The age was more related to the recognition of the residential environment. The younger the residents were, the more they recognized the elements. The points that were represented by dots in the cognitive maps are places for memories for the individuals. Creating more memorable spaces will affect the cognition of residents on living environment. It is better to improve the cognitive environments before cognitive abilities of residents decrease.

Environmental pollution becomes a serious problem in urban areas. Moreover, densely constructed strictures can be problematic to cities due to the rising temperature they cause as well as the increasing accumulation of air pollutants they generate by interrupting airflow. In order to improve residential amenity, it is necessary to improve the thermal environment by preserving wind corridors. To do so requires consideration to important aspects such as building arrangement, scale, vegetation, and land cover, which all have an effect on wind corridors. In this study, a typical arrangement-complex, which is the primary form of housing in Korea, was selected as a case ENVI-met. As a result of empirical analysis, the optimal apartment-complex arrangement that is most suitable for mitigating urban heat-islands phenomenon was determined, The outcome of this study can be utilized as a planning technique for apartment-complex construction in consideration to type of buildings, scale of buildings, and land cover.
