  • Green Building Certification System currently going into effect is a static evaluation model. Therefore, as far as the sustainable development of certification system is concerned, further long-term evaluation is required. The main purpose of this study is to offer a model in a way of developing and verifying a dynamic model in Green Building Certification. A dynamic model development has been given System Dynamics based on the causal structure. Thus, this study focused on searching the causal structure of certification criteria and verifying the reality of the model through simulation processing after developing a model. In conclusion, the development of dynamic evaluation method can be attributed to systematic evaluation for the criteria of Certification System.

  • In modern times, due to the centralized urban structure, the interval between buildings is narrow and the increase of the heat island phenomenon due to the accumulation of the structure is becoming a social problem. In order to solve these problems, various materials for reducing the surface temperature of buildings are under study. Particularly, in the case of a wall part which is a part directly affected by the outside air of the building, it is a main structural part for determining the room temperature. The purpose of this study was to develop a material that can improve the thermal environment performance of the building by evaluating the temperature control performance of the exterior finishing material using the heat reflecting material as a method for controlling the temperature of the outer wall finishing material.

  • Ambient vibration tests were carried out to evaluate the dynamic properties of an asymmetric steel building with semi-rigid connections. The test case has many non-structural elements, constructed in the city of Tehran (Iran). The tests were conducted to obtain natural frequencies, mode shapes and damping ratio of the structure and then Fourier transform were used to analyze the velocity records obtained from the tests. The first and second natural periods of the building were obtained as 1.37 s and 1.28 s through the test and damping ratio for the first mode was calculated as 0.047. However, Natural periods obtained from finite element model have higher values from those gained from ambient vibration. Then the model was calibrated by modeling of the in-fill masonry panels at their exact locations and considering the boundary conditions by modeling two blocks near the block No. 3, but the differences were existed. These differences may be due to some hidden stiffness of nonstructural elements in the low range of elastic behavior, showing the structure stiffer than it is in reality.

  • Currently, the structural material, namely glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) is focused on innovative structure due to lightness, excellent workability and noncorrosive characteristics, etc. However, the lack of GFRP connection technology produces only an imitation of steel and wood structures. This uses univentive design principles as well as unsuitable material applications, causes tons of surplus of materials to be wasted, and results in uneconomical structures, because the characteristics between steel and GFRP are completely different. Thus, this research develops the new, innovative GFRP connection system with considerations of the characteristics of GFRP and adopts it to a mobile und modular membrane pavilion.

  • This work introduces to the international scientific community the Chinese Code on fire safety design of steel building structures. The aim of the Code is to prevent the structure of a steel building subjected to fire from collapsing, ensure safe evacuation of building occupants, and reduce the cost for repairing the damages of the structure caused by fire. The main contents of the Code is presented in this paper, including the fire duration requirements of structural components, fundamental requirements on fire safety design of steel components, temperature increasing of atmosphere and components in fire, loading effect and capacity of various components in fire, and procedure for fire-resistant design of steel components. The analytical approach is employed in the Code and the effectiveness of the Code is validated through experiments.

  • Many people think, in common that An expansion toward outer city is a development, and it can be a general trends in a new development in a growing city. But We can see many case which moving of a public building are considerate as a core element to promote the new development towards outer city, and that is a negative element of slum in central area and community making. There are many aspects to pursue sustainable urban structure of in a city, and public building is a very important element to manage deteriorate central area from social slum in a old town. In this presentation, three project, Local Authority office of Chonnam province, Kwangju Station, and Hyper Urbanity, and it shows sustainable concept of the public building as a core in a city development. The effect of the projects are expected sustainable development and community in terms of social, cultural and historical aspects.

  • Cultural assets are subject to general elements of deterioration due to aging of materials and surrounding conditions over time and these elements do not influence structural safety. However, wood cracking(penetrative), disparity of joints, deformation of structure, damage by insects and ground subsidence as the elements of structural deterioration as well as slanting of building structure caused by composite elements exert serious impact on safety of cultural assets. Therefore, repair must be administered by deciding the appropriate time and investigating the status. However, there are no grounds for making such decisions because investigative data on cultural assets have not been organized analyzed and the results of investigation have not been established as database. There is also lack of objectified bases. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate organize elements of structural deterioration with reference to cultural assets of building structures in Seoul so that to use the results found as the basic data for preservation of cultural assets.

  • In this paper, the conceptual framework of IBS(Intelligent Building Systems) is redefined, and we propose two ANP(Analytic Network Process) models for ranking IBS. Traditional models have ranked IBS according to technical features or the number of elements in IBS. But, we consider relative functional importance among IBS elements for efficient building operation. According to the structure of interactive-relationship among IBS elements, we present two types of model. The one is Model A that is composed of both hierarchical and network structures. It has $12{\times}12$ supermatrix consists of interdependent relationship between 6 benefit elements(Productivity, Saving, Safety, Convenience, Pleasantness, Environment Affinity) and 6 IBS elements(Building Operation, Security, Safety, Telecommunication(TC), Office Automation(OA), other elements). Each of 6 IBS elements has subelements in hierarchical structure. The other is Model B that has $25{\times}25$ supermatrix consists of interdependent relationship between 6 benefit elements and 19 IBS sub elements. Merits and demerits of each model are discussed in detail.

  • This paper intended to propose the optimal outrigger position in tall building. For this purpose, a schematic structure design of 70 stories building was accomplished by using MIDAS-Gen. In this analysis research, the key variables were the stiffness of outrigger, the stiffness of frame, the stiffness of shear wall, the stiffness of exterior column connected in outrigger and the outrigger location in height. With the intention of looking for the optimum location of outrigger system in high-rise building, we investigated the lateral displacement in top floor. The study proposed the new method to predict the optimal location of outrigger system considering the frame stiffness. And it is verified that the paper results can be helpful in providing the important engineering materials for finding out the optimum outrigger position in tall building.

  • This building is a forty-eight story, 170 meters high multiple dwelling house with Dual Frame System (DFS), a coupled vibration system connecting two independent structures with hydraulic dampers. Generation of large deformation between two structures during earthquakes contributes to make the hydraulic dampers effective. To improve the aseismic performance more, this building adopts DFS hybrid system that consists of DFS and base isolation system. About typical floors, columns and beams are constructed with LRV precast concrete method that shorten the construction period greatly by integrating column-beam joints in column members.
