Tall buildings are frequently decried as unsustainable due to their excessive energy usage. Early skyscrapers used natural light and ventilation to facilitate human comfort and applied organic materials such as stone, glass, wood, concrete, and terra cotta for cladding and finishes. With the advent of fluorescent lighting, modern heating, ventilation, air-conditioning (HVAC) systems, and thermally sealed curtain walls, tall office buildings no longer had to rely on natural light and ventilation to provide comfort. Energy efficiency was not a significant factor when the operational costs of buildings were relatively inexpensive. However, today's skyscrapers must become more energy-efficient and sustainable due to energy crises and climate change. This paper highlights vital energy-efficient design principles and demonstrates with illustrative case studies how they are applied to tall buildings in various parts of the world. It shows how sustainable environmental systems do not act alone but are integrated with advanced curtain wall systems, sky gardens, and atria, among others, to regulate and sustain thermal comfort and conserve energy.

This research has been carried out to give economical incentives and to promote for the eco-friendly village. A standard model plan for the Korean eco-village has been prepared by systematically applying the results of the research to Boksoo village, which served as an exemplary model. Plans for promoting the Korean eco-village are finally derived after a series of theoretical assessment of conceptual propositions in harnessing natural elements well suited with man-made structures. The eco-friendly village that this study is to develop harnesses natural energy resources and establishes pleasant living environment for human. It minimizes the unjust load against nature and restrains the excessive consumption of irreplaceable indigenous energy and other natural resources on earth. Paraphrasing, the utilization of natural energy resources in the eco-friendly village features various schemes of the related technologies in energy conservation and exploitation of renewable energies including solar thermal, photovoltaic, daylighting, wind power and etc. The eco-friendly village would definitely make our world more healthier than before by suppressing the emission of green house gases from fossil fuels and ever increasing energy consumption.

Growing use of entire glass facades with metal frames are popularly witnessed in modern building practices and design competition as well. In spite of architectural aesthetics and view to outdoors, environmental issues still exist in that kind of buildings. One of the solutions for the problems might be the use of functional glasses such as a heat-resistant glass or various tinted glasses for the glass walls. This paper aims to provide performance data related to the impact of various transmittal materials of window systems on the light distribution. A series of computer simulation deals with the basic geometrical and optical design elements of a commonly used all-glass facades. Additionally an experimental configuration of the vertical window is proposed for better result of daylighting. A window system equipped with an inner-light shelf can improve the uniformity of natural light in a space by reducing the level of illumination near the window and redirecting light deeply into the space.

The lightshelf system, a daylighting device, has been applied to improve the visual environment by optimal light distributions and intense illumination levels of a interior. Also, The photovoltaic is one of the most important sustainable technologies appliable to architectures. This study aims to evaluate the performance of photovoltaic integrated lightshelf system. For the study, the 1/5 scaled office models were made and the field tests were experimented under clear sky conditions. The power ratio has been analyzed to evaluate the performance of photovoltaic integrated lightshelf system. As results, the power performance was high on photovoltaic lightshelf installation angle $0^{\circ}$. And the performance was reduced on 23(%) by installation angle $15^{\circ}$ and 63(%) by installation angle $30^{\circ}$.

Solar daylighting system provides free and comfort lighting, but its cost has been key issue due to difficult design and control of the heavy light collecting system. One of the solutions for the heavy design issues would be using a light framed film such fresnel and prism lens. Prism light guide luminaires have for some time been used to distribute light when it is desirable to have remote light sources. These systems are helpful when it is desirable to have fewer light sources, and/or to position light sources in places where lamp maintenance is easier, or electrical hazard is reduced. This proposed prototype system consists of light collector, light transformer and light pipe.

Active sunlighting systems have been applied to deliver sunlight into the indoor space where natural light is insufficient, mainly because of the congested high-rise buildings in urban areas. Among various active sunlighting systems, a mirror sunlighting system which is simple structure and economically reasonable has been widely used in different types of spaces such as underground, north facing place and atrium. This study was to evaluate the mirror sunlighting systems, which were consisted of the first mirror of $3.5m{\times}2.5m$, the eight sets of the second mirrors of $1.0m{\times}1.25m$ and a sun tracker. Ten sets of the systems were installed for 40 apartment living rooms, the configuration of $3.5m(W){\times}4.0m(D){\times}2.5m(H)$ where sunlighting were not possible due to high retaining walls located in the front of the living rooms. The 45 HOBO data logger sensors for the indoor illuminance were equipped and 2 Li-cor photometers for outdoor illuminance. Both indoor and outdoor horizontal illuminances were monitored every second from 9am to 3pm on 17 January 2010 under clear sky condition. The results showed that the indoor illuminance of installed mirror sunlighting system was significant relationship with outdoor illuminance and increased the indoor illuminance level by 4.2 times on the whole floor space, by 8 times on the sun patch space of 6m2 and even by 2 times on the no sun patch space. In addition, the luminous conditions of the living room under real sky conditions met the KS recommendation for difficult task (600-1000-1500 lux) such as sewing and reading on whole floor space and sun patch space. It was proved that the benefits of mirror sunlighting systems included an effective technology for penetrating daylight into indoors where sunlighting was not possible and improving occupants' satisfaction and health, and contributing to energy saving in apartments during daytime.

본 연구는 우리나라 유리건축에서 적용되고 있는 유리투과체를 조사하여 투과율이 다른 4종류 즉, 투명유리, 색유리, 파스텔유리, 로이유리를 선정하여 복층유리로 제작하였다. 투과체에 따른 실내공간의 채광성능평가를 위하여 축소모형을 1/10으로 제작하였으며, 투과체의 구성을 일반형과 이중분할형으로 구성하여 기준실과 실험실에 설치하였다. 또한, 채광성능평가시 IEA모니터링 프로토콜을 적용하여 작업면, 벽면, 천정면에 대하여 조도를 외부조도와 동시에 측정하였고, 본 논문에서는 작업면에 대한 채광성능평가를 중심으로 분석하였다. 평가지표로서 주광조도비를 사용하였으며, 일반형과 이중분할형에 대한 가변 유리투과체를 변화시켰을 경우 투과율에 따른 실내공간의 채광성능을 평가하였다. 가변 유리투과체로 구성된 실내공간의 채광성능평가는 다음과 같이 분석되었다. 첫째, 실내공간에 일반형을 적용하여 서로 다른 투광성능을 가진 유리투과체가 적용된 경우 외부조도에 대한 내부조도 비율은 투과율이 증가할수록 일정하게 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 투과체가 갖는 투과성능의 영향으로 판단된다. 둘째, 일반형에 비해 이중분할형은 채광창으로 유입되는 채광학적 기여가 증가하여 실 전체의 조도를 증가시키며 특히, 실 중간부와 후면부의 경우 채광적 잠재력이 증대되어 실의 쾌적함과 시 환경적 질이 증대될 것으로 사료된다. 현재 유리건축물에 많이 적용되고 있는 저 투과체에 이중분할형을 적용할 경우 채광학적으로 많은 효과가 있을 것으로 기대된다.

주된 사용시간이 주간인 사무소 건물에서 주광의 이용에 따른 연간 에너지 절약효과는 매우 큰 것으로 나타나고 있다. 더욱이 주광의 효과적인 이용은 작업자의 쾌적감과 만족감을 증가시키면서 수적으로 작업성능 또한 향상시킬 수 있다. 주광의 이용여부는 건축설계의 기본요소들이 검토되는 초기설계단계에서 검토되어야 한다. 따라서, 본 연구는 초기설계단계에서 주광의 이용에 따른 연간 조명에너지 절약률을 예측할 수 있는 평가도구를 개발하는데 연구목적이 있다. 이러한 평가도구로서 본 연구에서 개발한 노모그래프는 편측창 모델사무실을 대상으로 인공조명기구의 소등률과 조절방식에 따라 연간 조명에너지량을 예측할 수 있다. 이 노모그래프는 디자인 초기단계에서 유용한 자연채광 설계도구로서 이용될 수 있을 것이다.
