The aim of this study is to understand the plan characteristics used in unit floor planning mainly with examples of mixed-use residential tall buildings. The study will extract plan characteristics mainly using the graph expressive technique with essential information of the zoning function of residential space, rather than merely analyzing the various construction floor plans by type. The research method involves studying a group of 50-story buildings (over 200 meters) which were built between 2002 and 2008. Among 6 high-rise residential buildings case, we extract the most preferred type from 34 types, And then we simply classify rooms in 3 zoning, the master, living and children's zones. Finally we analyze the correlation among 3 simple zone and then extract some model type. The results of this study revealed three main findings. First, using the 3 functional zones, the shape of the main building and the unit floor plan can be analyzed simply even when they appear to be complicated. Second, we can extract common features when we analyze the unit floor plan from the viewpoint of the penetrability among 3 zoning. Third, we can extract 2 types when we analyze the unit floor plan from the viewpoint of 3 connected functional zoning concepts.

This paper deals with the spatial configuration of the unit floor plan based on the apartment building type. It is generally agreed that various apartment building types were organized by diverse apartment unit floor plan. The reason behind this diversity, apartment unit plan are affected by the environmental condition and the diverse spatial composition of the unit floor plan. Apartment building types were classified by the similarity of the justified-graph type. This types classified into two category; One core type which were classified by the shape of the core, and multiple core type which were compounded by more than two core. These categories divided into 5 types, and 2 types. Each types were compared in view of the mean depth, relative asymmetry, integration value. Consequently, these types could be classified in the number of the unit floor plan. It is profitable to 3 unit types which was analyzed in view of an indicator of the spatial configuration. Therefore, 3 unit types is favorable to the composition of the apartment building types.

The aims of this research are to find the difference of space origination between Korean-Chinese and Chinese multi-family housing unit plan and to find the main reason to make this difference. To do this research, twenty three different kinds of floor plans were surveyed and examined. The results are as follows; 1. The Chinese-Korean floor plan and Chinese floor plan in Ondol heating system are totally different, although in radiator and floor panel heating system are similar. The inner space origination between two races are different. That is to say, Chinese-Korean likes open space origination and Chinese likes closed space origination. 2. The main reasons to make differences seem to be living style, heating system, constructional method and the trade with South Korea. In the future time, the usage of floor panel heating system will be increased and various kinds of floor plan should be introduced.

This study was designed to examine characteristics of apartment floor plans that have been recently available. Content analysis was conducted, and 232 apartment floor plans were examined. This study indicated that the front width and the number of front bays also notably increased. Also, two bathrooms in a unit have been increasing, and three bedrooms were very popular. The conspicuous change of floor plan component is the appearance of entrance lobby. It was noted that dress room and powder room that appeared in a larger unit were adopted in small one. Housing suppliers have continuously attempted to have partial change in unit floor plan to accommodate consumers' diverse needs and lifestyle, Further analysis on our residential culture and continuous study on various development of floor plan types need to be made.

The purpose of this study was to compare the characteristics of floor plan of $85m^2$-sized housing units with 2-bay and 3-bay and the residents' satisfaction with them. The subjects for analyzing floor plan were six floor plans of $85m^2$-sized housing units with 2-bay and nine floor plans of housing units with 3-bay in the new town, Hwamyeong-dong, in Busan. The floor plans were analyzed based on seven characteristics of floor plans such as the composition type of entrance core hall, the entrance arrangement, width and depth of the housing unit, size of each room, LDK arrangement, arrangement of family bathroom and private bathroom for husband and wife, and balcony arrangement. The subjects for grasping satisfaction with each housing unit were 400 residents of $85m^2$-sized housing units. A half of them lived in housing units with 2-bay and another half of them with 3-bay in the same area. They answered about the degree of satisfaction with the characteristics of each room and the preferred floor plan type if they move to the same size housing units through a questionnaire. The results were as follows; First, the floor plan with 3-bay had more diverse elements than one with 2-bay. Second, the residents who lived in 3-bay housing unit were younger, higher education, and higher income than the ones in 2-bay. Third, the residents who lived in $85m^2$-sized housing unit were more satisfied with and preferred to 3-bay housing units than 2-bay one.

The purpose of this study was to search out an relativeness to the apartment housing unit plans and the unit plans of rural houses. Unit plans data were collected from housing registration records or field survey methods. 45 rural plans and 53 apartment plans were analyzed. The results were as follows; First, the floor planning characteristics of rural houses were 'ㅋ'type of floor plan shape, 2.5 or 3 bay arrangement, L-DK type of social space, and the front entrance. Second, the floor planning characteristics of apartment houses were '-'type of floor plan shape, 2 bay arrangement, L...DK type of social space, and the side or rear entrance. Third, 3 bay arrangement method of rural houses effected to apartment houses, and L...DK type of apartment houses effected to rural houses. Utility or balcony spaces of rural houses was inversely effected from apartment houses.

The purpose of this study is to analyze spatial configuration of the unit floor plan characteristics of the apartments built in Seoul Metropolitan area by using the Space Syntax methodology and finally to test the relationship between space in the unit floor plans. So the unit floor plans are analyzed using sector graphs from justified graph and computer programs based on the Space Syntax model and compared by size. The results are as follows; The sector graphs are summarized in 14 types. The total depth of spaces is not in proportion to the plan area. And the global and local integration and intelligibility are inversely proportional to the area. But in the case of largest areas(265$m^2$ and above), the integration and intelligibility increase.

This study aims to analyze the current status and characteristics of apartment house unit plans towards spatial differentiation. The 172 house units from 32 housing complexes were selected for this analysis. In this study, factors of residential space plan especially in an apartment house are categorized into general characteristics on floor plan and factors for spatial floor plan. The Primary findings are as follows: (1) General characteristics on floor plan are analyzed based on space organization, area and number of bays. Among apartment houses over 40 pyeong, it seems that differentiation is well applied with various space plans available. (2) A result of an analysis on the factors for spatial floor plan shows that planning a living room with two-open-sides seems to be more common in the tower-shaped apartment blocks which are now on the increase. Moreover, many of them are adopting movable partitions to reflect resident's various demands on space plan. Among all, the extra kitchen in the balcony is planned high portion of 80.4%. And diningroom is positioned on the front side of the residential space along with a livingroom(19.2%). More frequently, dining area tends to face the living room(30.2%) according to the result. Besides dress rooms begin to be placed in each of the bedroom, once planned in one bedroom only while 18.6% of the apartment houses are placing new storages in the entrance to solve lack of storage space due to balcony extension.
