A lot of buildings, especially apartment housing, have been dismantled so as to enhance the value of the building without exact assesment for the service life and deterioration degree of the building. Remodeling for an aged building is becoming a hot issue to owners in the public sector and the private sector. Peoples including owner, tenants, constructors recognize the fact that the efficient maintenance of the building during the service life and lengthening the practical service life are very important in point of minimizing LCC. This study suggest a decision making system to judge whether to remodel(renovate) or to reconstruct an aged building. The system is composed of structural performance assesment elapsed(or practical service) life evaluation against whole service life, deterioration assesment of the building equipment, dweller's satisfaction, etc.

We have investigated the usefulness cf active stabilizing system to reduce ship rolling under disturbances, using varying reaction cf the flaps. In the proposed anti-rolling system for a ship, the flaps as the actuator are installed on the stem to reject rolling motion induced by disturbances like wave. The action induced by flaps which depends on power of disturbances am take the ship balance. Especially, in this study we identify the controlled system under the undefined system structure using spectral analysis and experimental studies. Based on these informations, we design the controller to evaluate the usefulness of the proposed system.

"Eco-friendly construction" is an emerging issue in the building industry. Main purpose of the eco-friendly construction is to sustain the health and environment of building residents and to minimize the harmful effect on their environment. Apartment residents have great concern on eco-product, since many cases are reported that Sick Building Syndrome is caused by toxic substance from building materials. Environmental performance is to meet through using the highest grade eco-friendly materials. However, generally eco-friendly materials are more expensive than normal materials, Therefore, using eco-friendly materials at public housing project is limited to economical aspect. The purpose of this paper is development of eco-friendly material selection model considered cost efficiency. The selection of Eco-friendly finishing materials and their methods are constructed to consider environmental performance level and cost index compositively. Development of eco-friendly material selection method is economic and reasonable one when public housing is constructed.

Recently, social demands on atypical buildings and building spaces are increasing, and examples of atypical buildings are easily seen in major cities around the world. This study investigates the user behaviors in the typical atypical buildings currently constructed and analyzes the characteristics of human behavior in the atypical building space. Ultimately, this study aims to develop human behavior simulation technology for reviewing residential performance of atypical building space design, and the results of this study can be used for user behavior modeling and simulation technology development. This is because it is difficult to find an investigation or analysis of what behavioral characteristics occur in the atypical building space in previous studies. This study derives the characteristics of human behavior in the atypical architectural space that has been overlooked in the existing human behavior simulation tools. In other words, the site visits and surveys typical atypical buildings to investigate user behaviors in typical spaces and other atypical buildings.

Every year, the number of wild animals appearing in human settlements increases, resulting in increased damage to property and human life. In particular, the damage is more severe when wild animals appear on highways or farmhouses. To solve this problem, ecological pathways and guide fences are being installed on highways. In addition, in order to solve the problem in farms, horn repelling using sensors, installing a net, and repelling by smell of excrement are being used. However, these methods are expensive and their effectiveness is not high. In this paper, we used YOLO (You Only Look Once), an AI-based image analysis method, to analyze harmful animals in real time to reduce malfunctions, and high-brightness LEDs and ultrasonic frequency speakers were used as extermination devices. The speaker outputs an audible frequency that only animals can hear, increasing the efficiency to only exterminate wild animals. The proposed system is designed using a general-purpose board so that it can be installed economically, and the detection performance is higher than that of the devices using the existing sensor.

Purpose: This paper aims to explore approaches for obtaining KOLAS certification for masks developed as protective equipment for use during evacuation processes in the event of a radiation disaster involving residents within a radiation emergency planning zone. Method: Various reports, papers, and data from the KOLAS accreditation bodies' websites were examined for this study. Result: Although domestic radiation disaster preparedness measures have been established to enhance resident protection, the distribution of protective equipment is limited to thyroid protection drugs. Supplementary support items like masks are necessary to prepare for radiation disasters. Currently, there is no KOLAS-accredited certification body for radiation protection masks. Conclusion: For masks that have established performance certification criteria, a dual process is required for KOLAS certification. This involves obtaining an official test report as an industrial respirator mask, receiving certification, and then obtaining a general test report based on internal standards.

After the construction of waterworks automatic meter reading with 15 mm diameter digital water mater with magnetoresistance sensor developed in this study at 96 households of apartment complexes located in Incheon-City B-Gu S-Dong, the feasibility of field application of waterworks automatic meter reading was evaluated. The field application of waterworks automatic meter reading was performed from July to December in 2011, and average reception rate was as low as 84.6% due to the instable wibro networks, the existence of communication blackout and temporary malfunction of router. After the extraction of 10 households with one to five residents out of 96 households by using stratified random sampling method and analysis of domestic water use, it was found that domestic water use was significant at August and showed a decreasing trend at September, followed by increase in domestic water use at November and decrease in domestic water use at December. This phenomenon should be attributed to weather factors (temperature, humidity, etc.), which significantly affected domestic water use. Similar trend in domestic water use in terms of weather factors was obtained in case of Liter per capita day of water use after the extraction of 30 households out of 96 households by using stratified random sampling method. After analysis of Liter per capita day for 96 households, single residents increases resulted in reduction of domestic water usage by about 14% of Liter per capita day. These results might be due to the fact that domestic water usage such as laundry, beverages, catering, cleaning, etc. should be required for even the household with one resident, whereas domestic water usage for those common utilization can be significantly saved for the household with more than one resident.
