Abstract

Despite the many advantages of modular housing, low preference for modular housing for consumers who are familiar with RC structure leads to high construction cost of modular housing. The cost of modular buildings is about 130% of that of RC structures, so it is urgent to secure economical efficiency of modular buildings. Therefore, in this study, after calculating the savings amount of modular housing by type of construction work, economic analysis was conducted from a long - term perspective. In order to carry out the research, the authors compiled and analyzed the material cost, labor cost, and expenses incurred by each type of work by reclassifying the statement of the modular housing into the factory production and the site installation. After that, Pareto diagrams were created to find a core work that is included in the cost ratio of about 80%, and selected it as a cost reduction subject. Based on the assumption that the market size of domestic modular housing is similar to the level of modular advanced countries such as Japan and European countries, six cost reduction methods were set up that reflects the characteristics of the modular construction method and used for the expert interviews. Cost saving potentials in percentage from the interview were converted to the amount of savings that can be achieved by each type of method when applying the method. Finally, the findings of the study are expected to suggest long-term directions for technical development for modular construction and cost savings.

모듈러 주택은 많은 장점이 있음에도 불구하고, RC구조에 익숙한 소비자들의 모듈러 주택에 대한 낮은 선호도가 모듈러 주택의 높은 공사비를 초래하고 있다. 모듈러 건축물의 공사비는 RC 구조 대비 130% 전후로 형성되어 있어 모듈러 건축물의 경제성 확보가 시급하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 모듈러 주택의 공종별 절감가능 금액을 산출한 후, 장기적 관점에서의 경제성 분석을 진행하였다. 연구 진행을 위해 모듈러 주택의 내역서를 공장제작분 및 현장설치분으로 분개하여 공종별 발생하는 재료비, 노무비, 경비를 비교 분석을 진행했다. 그 후 파레토도를 작성하여 비용 누계 80% 내외에 포함되는 핵심 공종을 찾아 공사비 절감 가능대상으로 선정하였다. 국내 모듈러 건축의 시장규모가 일본, 유럽 국가 등 모듈러 선진국 수준과 비슷하다는 가정하에 전문가 인터뷰를 통해 모듈러 공법의 특성을 반영한 비용절감 방법을 설정하였고, 모듈러 업체 전문가를 대상으로 한 설문조사를 통해 비용절감 방법을 적용했을 때의 공종별 절감 가능 금액을 산출하고, 총 절감가능 금액을 산출했다. 비용절감 방법 중 '자동화 및 기계화'방법을 적용했을 때의 절감가능성이 1.54%로 가장 큰 것을 알 수 있었고, 국내 모듈러 생산 과정이 전자동화 및 기계화가 된다면 공사비 절감 뿐만 아니라 공기 단축도 기대해 볼 수 있다고 판단한다.
