This study intends to research the spatial characteristics of Asian interim housing that accommodates sufferers pro tempore after disasters. The scope of this research covers the interim spaces used for housing people after natural disasters that occurred in Asia for the past fifteen years. Within this scope, literature review was conducted as the basis to derive the characteristics and environmental elements of interim housing, which provided the criteria to compare and evaluate cases of interim housing along with characteristic elements required of interim housing found in previous studies. According to literature review, interim housing can be classified by life-span, region, economy, climate, type, number of household, square measure, residential cost, structure/material, and service life. Within the scope of the present research, literature review showed a total of twenty-eight cases of interim housing in fifteen countries revealing a high rate of disaster occurrence in the subtropic and tropic climate of Southeast Asia. A great percentage of interim housing was used for long-term stay of over a year. The structure of interim housing varied from lightweight steel, wooden, masonry, membrane, to traditional structure and the type were divided into temporary shelter, transitional housing, temporary housing, and permanent housing. Followed by literature review, the characteristics required of post-disaster interim housing were analyzed based on previous research and case studies. The characteristics of interim housing can be divided into environmental, technological, and socio-cultural ones. Sub-characterical items according to such division include amenity, health, surroundings, structure, convenience, eco-friendliness, safety, communication, and locality. As a result of evaluation, most items met the required characteristics of interim housing, while technological characteristics such as structure and convenience varied with the types of interim housing and appeared even unnecessary in some cases. According to analysis, amenity is maintained through the structural and material characteristics of interim housing and is also facilitated by increasing number of infrastructure such as educational, sanitary, and convenience facilities provided by the governmental and organizational bodies. It is expected that this study will be utilized as preliminary data for follow-up studies that improve the environment of post-disaster interim housing suitable for domestic circumstances in environmental, technological, and socio-cultural respects.

Many activities associated with the construction and habitation of buildings are connected with issues affecting the environment such as global warming, climate change, and consumption of valuable natural resources such as fossil fuels. To minimize negative impacts on the environment, the building industry worldwide has implemented green building practices in many countries. One of the main green strategies is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions caused by residential structures because they are most substantially connected with global warming and climate change. To determine the actual quantity of green house gas emissions caused by the construction and use of a building, it is important to analyze total greenhouse gas emissions over the life cycle of buildings including construction, operation & maintenance(O&M) and demolition stages. Many studies suggest methods to calculate greenhouse gas emissions at the construction stage, but the literature addressing greenhouse gas emissions at the O & M stage is limited. A year-long study was conducted utilizing the deterioration method to calculate greenhouse gas emissions at the O & M stage of building life for condominium types of buildings in South Korea. Through this research, it is possible to analyze greenhouse gas emissions of buildings at the O & M stage, the longest span of the life cycle, and eventually help to calculate total greenhouse gas emissions over the life cycle of the building.

최근 우리사회는 의료환경의 발전과 생활환경의 개선 등으로 수명의 연장과 함께 저출산으로 인하여 급격한 인구구조의 변화를 불러오고 있다. 급기야 인구의 고령화를 초래하였고 노인문제는 세대간 갈등으로 증폭되고 있다. 현세대 노인은 자식의 교육·결혼과 주거 문제 등으로 자신의 노후 소득보장을 준비할 여력이 없었고, 공적 소득보장의 혜택으로부터 소외된 세대이다. 또한 급속한 산업화와 정보화, 경제적 불안 등과 함께 빈곤상태에 놓여 있음은 물론 생계까지 위협받고 있다. 물질만능이 지배하는 우리사회에 적응력이 떨어진 노인들로부터 발생되는 노인범죄의 증가상황은 새로운 사회문제로 부각되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 고령화 속도가 세계적으로도 유례가 없을 정도로 빠르게 진행되고 있는 우리사회의 노인범죄에 대한 사회적 논의를 통해 국가적인 대처방안 제시가 필요한 시기라 판단하면서 양적 증가와 함께 질적으로는 흉폭화, 난폭화 되고 있는 노인범죄의 원인을 분석하고 10년간의 자료를 이용하여 범죄현황과 예방책을 제시하고자 한다. 본 연구목적 달성을 위하여 노인의 기준이 변화되고 있는 우리사회의 다양한 의견과 통계자료를 고찰하고 범죄의 분석은 대검찰청과 경찰청, 통계청의 자료와 최근 언론 보도 자료, 기존 연구자료 등을 활용하는 문헌연구를 하였다. 본 연구는 노인의 특성과 현 사회가 노인을 보는 시각 등 다양한 측면에서 노인범죄를 진단하여 향후 범죄 발생 예측과 아울러 예방을 위한 발전 방향을 모색해 보고자 한다.
