This study analyzed the type of the teaming space of 84 elementary schools which were prized as excellent schools on architectural planning and design in Japan from 1985 to 2005. As a result of the study, more types of learning space appeared at different elementary schools, and there was a tendency to plan as one unit space which include class room, multipurpose space, and others, on the planning of learning space. They intended to be uses for the teaming and living activity as a group of a school year.

There is not enough excavation examples and bibliographies to study the garden of Baek Je as the ancient landscape architecture style This study was to seek the ancient Japanese gardens which had a great concern with Baek Je in order to surmount the limitation in the study on Baek Je's Gardens . As the result, there were founded the three ponds and one garden facility in ancient Japanese gardens focused on Aska region. The traces of the landscape architecture of Baek Je style were founded in the pond form and rubble masonry and such like. This study was the first trial to the study on the garden of Baek Je style in Japan And excavation examples which had a concern with Baek Je will be more in Japan. So more study is needed.

In a state where ancient buildings was left a lot in the case of Korea, many parts do not remain the documentation, and there is a Kiwarisho lot in Japan, however, the present methods and tree split does not exist in the Korea. However, it is impossible to make a perfect building without splitting exact member when making a building. Thus will not be revealed simply by presumption that there is a similar way to wood comparatively far in Korea. Without a comparison of building dimensions and Korea calculation dimensions Kiwarisho In the first study about the proportionality of Korea, I do not know until now, other studies of the following documents which house a high approximation ratio and member size of Korea consider reason to have is impossible. View compared with respect to the axis of the building in the early stages of research first. In the case of Japan and Korea to form a tree frames in basic form that form the building, the shaft portion is easy to understand and easy compared in common is at most the shaft portion.

The purpose of this study is to find ways to improve the quality of life in old age. 'Act on Long-Term Care Insurance for the Aged' has been enforced since 2008 in Korea. But This is not encompass all of the elderly policies. Aging policies service separately each part by residential, welfare, and so on. There are 'Local Community Support Service' and 'Community General Support Center' for seniors as a comprehensive institution in Japan. Local Community Support Service is preventive and regional. And Community General Support Centers are sufficiently provide for each region. Japan can be a leading model of Korea. Therefor it analyzes Japanese cases and compares to the domestic situations in this study. Through this process, this study measures the necessity of the General Support Center for the elderly.

The United States understood the fostering of pro-U.S. elites in "free world" countries as an important Cold War weapon. From 1954 to 1962, the U.S provided considerable assistance to Seoul National University (SNU) for its postwar rehabilitation and future development in terms of repair and construction of campus buildings, equipment and book purchases, and faculty exchanges. With the aid of this educational assistance project widely known as the Minnesota Project, SNU was reborn with an academic orientation to the U.S., separating itself from the Japanese education that was its origin. This study argues that the Minnesota Project played an important role in crafting SNU's architecture program and the exchange program's recipients as key "knowledge brokers." For individual trainees, experience in the U.S., as opposed to a backwards situation in their homeland, had allowed them to recognize the U.S. as an ideal source of knowledge. Since the Minnesota Project, SNU's Architectural Engineering Department was filled with faculty members who had trained or studied in the U.S., which became a significant distinction of SNU's architecture program in sharp contrast to its counterparts at Hanyang University and Hongik University where most of the faculty members studied in Japan during the Japanese colonial period. As many graduates of SNU had been appointed as faculty members in newly-founded architecture programs in South Korea, a hierarchical diffusion path had emerged in architectural education that led from SNU to other school's architecture programs, with the U.S. at the apex. The legacy of the Minnesota Project extended over the next few decades, in which studying architecture in the U.S. was recognized as a shortcut to success in the field.

Countermeasures against earthquake disasters such as the seismic capacity evaluation and/or retrofit schemes of buildings, especially existing low-rise reinforced concrete buildings, have not been fully performed since Korea had not experienced many destructive earthquakes in the past. However, due to more than 1200 earthquakes with low or moderate intensity in the off-coastal and inland of Korea during the past 20 years, and due to the recent moderate earthquakes in Korea, such as the 2016 Gyeongju Earthquake with M=5.8 and the 2017 Pohang Earthquake with M=5.4, the importance of the future earthquake preparedness measures is highly recognized in Korea. The main objective of this study is to provide the basic information regarding seismic capacities of existing low-rise reinforced concrete buildings in Korea. In this paper, seismic capacities of 14 existing low-rise reinforced concrete public buildings in Korea are evaluated based on the Japanese Standard for Evaluation of Seismic Capacity of Existing Reinforced Concrete Buildings. Seismic capacities between existing buildings in Korea and those in Japan is compared, and the relationship of seismic vulnerability of Korean buildings and Japanese buildings damaged due to severe earthquakes are also discussed. Results indicated that Korean existing low-rise reinforced concrete buildings have a narrow distribution of seismic capacities and they are relatively lower than Japanese buildings, and are also expected to have severe damage under the earthquake intensity level experienced in Japan. It should be noted from the research results that the high ductility in Korean existing low-rise buildings obtained from the Japanese Standard may be overestimated, because most buildings investigated herein have the hoop spacing wider than 30 cm. In the future, the modification of strength and ductility indices in the Japanese Standard to propose the seismic capacity evaluation method of Korean buildings is most needed.

In the case that high-rise building is constructed, the surrounding wind velocity increase more than 50~100%. From this cause, many wind environmental problems can be occurred. For example, ordinary wind environmental disaster may be occurred in a region, or walking disturbed. In developed countries including USA, EU, and Japan, many efforts have been made for building wind prevention by grasping previously the effects before building constructed. But, We are bearing risk of wind environmental disaster because we have not enough recognition about building wind, and have not architectural prevention counterplans. This study aims to examine wind environmental characteristics of domestic apartment complex, and effective architectural counterplans. As the basic stage for this, we investigated pre-estimate tools and risk assessment methods of building wind in apartment complex, applied to two apart complex in Cheon-An region by CFD. As the result, serious damages were not presented. But, it is obvious that various architectural counterplans will be presented by this example researches.
