This paper introduces an automated method for building height recovery through the integration of high-resolution satellite images and digital vector maps. A cross-correlation matching method along the vertical line locus on the Ikonos images was deployed to recover building heights. The rational function models composed of rational polynomial coefficients were utilized to create a stereopair of the epipolar resampled Ikonos images. Building footprints from the digital maps were used for locating the vertical guideline along the building edges. The digital terrain model (DTM) was generated from the contour layer in the digital maps. The terrain height derived from the DTM at each foot of the buildings was used as the starting location for image matching. At a preset incremental value of height along the vertical guidelines derived from vertical line loci, an evaluation process that is based on the cross-correlation matching of the images was carried out to test if the top of the building has reached where maximum correlation occurs. The accuracy of the reconstructed buildings was evaluated by the comparison with manually digitized 3D building data derived from aerial photographs.

Recently in the field of telecommunication, there is much interest in geo-surface characteristics of urban areas. Geophysical properties of urban features are now incorporated with accurate positional information to model the telecommunication environment. In this study, three-dimensional buildings are geometrically reconstructed from existing vector maps and aerial images. Accurate digital vector maps are easily available in Korea. However existing maps, which had been produced for GIS applications, do not have height information which is critical to three dimensional building reconstruction. Image matching techniques were applied to aerial image stereopairs to automatically extract the height information of buildings. Planimetric coordinates from vector maps were used as initial guides in the process. Future studies will be undertaken to link geophysical properties to the three-dimensional spatial objects reconstructed from this study thus bringing the telecommunication environment model closer to reality.

Banda Aceh is one of the areas that sustains the most damage during a natural disaster because it contains so many houses, office buildings, public facilities, and schools. Public structures in coastal areas are highly susceptible to earthquakes, resulting in high casualties and property damage. Several public structures were reconstructed during the reconstruction and rehabilitation period. Because this building is located in an area with a high risk of earthquakes, its capacity must be analyzed initially. Additionally, history indicates that Aceh Province has been struck by numerous earthquakes, including the largest ever recorded in 1983 and the most recent earthquake with a magnitude of 9.3 SR on December 26, 2004. The city of Banda Aceh was devastated by this earthquake, which was followed by a tsunami. The possibility of a large earthquake in Banda Aceh City necessitates that the structures constructed there be resistant to seismic risk. This study's objective was to evaluate the seismic performance of the existing building by applying the method of strengthening the structure in the form of jacketing columns and the addition of steel bracing in order to estimate the performance of the structure using multiple ground motions. Therefore, several public buildings must be analyzed to determine the optimal seismic retrofitting technique.

'Heaundae Woosin Building' fire was the case that a fire breaking out on the $4^{th}$ floor spread out the $38^{th}$ floor which is a top story and the penthouse was destroyed by fire. After this fire, the fire safety for high rise buildings has been on the rise and several new laws and regulations related in the buildings were created. The study is to analyze Heaundae officetel building case using FDS which is one of the CFD programs for fire. The methodology of this study is to analyze the case comparing with fire spread and route from a virtual fire simulation and related articles and a video clip of actual scene fire. This study shows that a fire spreading on top of levels spent approximately 30 minutes and, which is similar to the actual fire case. Also the pattern of spread has similarity with the case. However, even if the actual fire case shows the fire pattern was "V shape", the smoke-view presents the fire dose not spread horizontally as much as the real fire case. The result shows uncertainty of the modeling based on many grids and a limitation of putting interior finish input sources and the direction of the wind might cause the difference. Also, to analyze factors influencing on a vertical fire, another fire modeling is performed by in condition of modeling environment considering concrete interior finish between buildings and no wind. The result presents the fire spread in smoke-view does not spread vertically as much as the actual case.

Recently, remodeling has been a major field of the building construction that comes up for the alternatives of the reconstruction and the economical construction method. In the almost cases, the engineering capacity for the repair/rehabilitation of the remodeling should satisfy also the owner's various needs (eg, the minimum construction time, etc.) and the safety of the building. Also, the engineering and construction technique for remodeling should be applied to the contrary point of view of the general construction method. But, the many problem actually has arose from the wrongly applied construction method that is caused with the insufficient researches and development. Therefore, this study would suggest the necessities and the directions of developing the elementary engineering technique and the method that satisfy the owner's various needs for the remodeling and repair/rehabilitation of the multi-owned building as multiplex shop, with the successful construction cases.

This study is to analyze the situation of residential area in Down Town and to research any factor of difficulty in developing residential area. First, we can summarize briefly in consequence of analyzing the residential environment classified with apartment and independent house in Down Town. 1) The apartment houses located in Down Town were constructed long ago on a small scale. The field investigation shows that parking lots are not enough and there are many spaces used inappropriately. 2) Each detached house was too old and built in narrow spaces. The irregular narrow lanes between houses also cause problems in walking and parking. And empty houses are found in that area. Second, the brief results of analyzing difficulties in developing the residential area in Down Town are as follows. 1) The land and buildings have difficulty in reconstruction because of the deterioration. 2) The economical efficiency is low though it is developed as a residential area. 3) There are some factors that they don't like to live in Down Town. 4) The law system is not enough to support the development of the residential area in Down Town

After 1980's, as economy was rapidly grown and real estate market was active, greatly increased in population has been supplied to the city. Accordingly, national apartment house market is located in the form of Urban Housing Culture. However, as time goes by the apartment houses where the supply of mass became superannuated and residential environment became poor. So, the environment of old apartment houses has been changed to improve with reconstruction. It has been changed in response to the demands of the times. It is one of essential part in a remodeling field for the future although it has some problems in the way that uses existing buildings.

While reconstruction has been criticized since 1990 for its tendency of resource over-usage and negative impact on the surrounding environments, remodeling has begun drawing attention as its new alternative. Through examining the recent legal and systematic conditions such as Construction Law, Common Housing Administration Ordinance, and Housing Law, etc. this research analyzes problems on the current legal systems on remodeling, and it aims to suggest systematic and policy-driven schemes which could revitalize remodeling on its software and hardware sides. Careful consideration in regards to remodeling should be given from the initial design stage and throughout the maintenance stages of construction to achieve lengthy durability of buildings, and realization of long-term maintenance costs should also be pursued during this process. This will set in place the practice of remodeling in longer than 50-years intervals since the construction rather than the current 20 or 30 years.
