Because of the demographic and economic changes and the lifestyle diversification, the new housing types such as the Quasi-housing and urban small-size multi-unit housing are appeared in korea. The current housing use classifications are regulated in accordance with the housing divided ownership, horizontal and vertical size of housing, and the number of units. However, there is a limit to accommodate the new housing type. Therefore, this study proposed the direction of improvement of the housing use classifications through comparative analysis of foreign housing use classifications. Also, building regulations are applied according to the building use classifications. Therefore, the new housing types in building act are very urgent and important. So this study is derived the problems of the current housing use classifications and is proposed the improvement direction of it through the expert opinion survey.

From the beginning of 2000, Korean housing market has experienced cyclical volatility because of the global economic fluctuation such as steady decline in the interest rate and the house price bubble. In response to these state Korean Government announced policies about housing sales system kinds of Sales Unit Price Restraint and Post-Sales System to stabilize housing market. But such policies has brought unprecedented arguments both for and against, most of whom still seem to stick to self-centered judgement ahead of impact on housing market. In an integrated point of view, applying the system dynamics modeling, the paper aims at proposing basic Korean housing market dynamics models based on basis principles of housing market determined by supply and demand. And then, after research policies about housing sales system, analyze Impact on Korean Housing Market by change of Sales Systems applying policies to basic Korean housing market dynamics models.

Many alternatives on the residential open building have been researched for corresponding high flexibility and possibility of remodeling in Korea as well. However, existing researches only dealt with two-dimensional floor plan. All buildings as well as apartment housing must have been examined various spatial aspect, three-dimensional not two-dimensional. It will examine basic method of three-dimensional flexible unit system to add to three-dimensional usage method overcoming these limitations. The purpose of this study is to propose the system of three-dimensional residential open building in Korea after examining possibility of flexibility of residential open building in 1.5 times of existing floor height.

The behavioral-related environmental study for multifamily housing is needed to develop the quality of unit floor plan in terms of user comfort and needs. So, the aim of this study is to find out the living style and housing needs in terms of interaction between the users behavior pattern and orgarnization of physical home space. For the purpose, the field experiments in Pusan, have been carried out with 318 households living in apartments by plan types(2BL, 3BL, 4BL, 5BL) which were classified by number of bedrooms. The dwelling space usage behavior(room use pattern and furniture uasge pattern) and the space adjustment behavior(physical modification of space and preferred space adjustment attitude) were examined and analyzed.

After the Enforcement of Price Deregulation of Apartment, Apartment house get down to originality goods, The Housing Market have reorganized the nucleus by a user, have demanding the development for discriminative unit plan. The purpose of this study is that before and after the Price Decontrol of Apartment take part a variety of unit plan, search for transformation factor and analyze into the tendency of the distinction plan of Housing Goods. Before and after the Price Decontrol of Apartment, Apartment unit have analyzed from 85 $m^2$ till 152 $m^2$ private area; ten corporations of civil construction' unit in Seoul and The national capital region supply apartment, will supply apartment. For selected examples, first, unit plan is normalized from the ratio of front to side wall, bay, a Room' organization and a kind of Room, number, and for examples of unit plan of apartment, the examples were analyzed with respect to change of a Room' organization and the number of a room and the ratio of front wall to side wall for item investigated. Finally, I search out course of transformation tendency of an apartment unit plan after Enforcement of Price Deregulation and analyzed a factor. The results of the study are follows, after Enforcement of Price Deregulation, unit plan of apartment lead to change lay out, to secure each family's privacy, to secure feeling for open hearted, tendency of flexibility.

The purpose of this study was to investigate unit care characteristics of large skilled nursing facilities for the elderly, which are located in city areas, and to discuss the way of encouraging home-like atmosphere in perspective of spatial unit. First of all, the analysis of five facilities opened before 2002 was performed, based on previous studies, to compare with them opened in recent 5 years. Most of the previous facilities did not have differentiation between their residential and nursing units, and the number of residents in each unit were excessive in comparison with the standard limit(12-28). On the contrary, the facilities established in recent 5 years had systematic spatial unit structure. The residential units had basically rooms and spaces for small group and the number of elderly residents per unit was appropriate on the basis of standard limit which was suggested by Kwon(2002). The nursing units were consist of nursing station, 2-3 residential units, spaces for large group of residents, hair dressing, nurse, living assistant, bathing, storage and etc. But, there was a problem In space usage even though they have distinct unit care systems. Some spaces for groups were empty without residents, furniture, and other equipments, which were necessary for unit care.

Purpose: Various policies to reduce the energy consumption have been carried out to save Earth environment against global warming and environmental pollution in many countries. Energy consumption of buildings in Korea has reached 24% of total energy consumption, and energy consumption of apartment has been continuously increasing. Therefore, Korea government has executed building energy efficiency rating certification system to control energy consumption of buildings. Method: This study was conducted to evaluate the energy performance of apartment unit plans according to the increasement of front width of unit plans, and tried to present the basic data to design more energy conscious unit plans for apartments. For the study, three shapes of unit plans -the 2Bay, 3Bay and 4bay unit- were selected for imput models. They were simulated using ECO2 software to assess building energy efficiency rating certification in Korea. Result: According to the results, in cases that balcony windows were not installed, the primary energy consumption of the 3Bay and 4Bay units were less than 2Bay unit, respectively, 0.1% and 2,5%. The primary energy consumption of the 3Bay and 4Bay units, in cases that balcony windows were installed, was less than 2Bay unit, respectively, 1.7% and 3.2%.

Apartment Housing in Korea has been developed rapidly and settled as a main housing form for short period, 40 years. In spite of increase of the apartment housing, it has pointed out that spatial organization of the apartment housing could accommodate residents 'various life style and life cycle. One of such planning methods is a flexible housing. Starting with the Gangbyoun-Siebeom apartment, flexible housing has been developed as merchandising constantly. However, flexible housing doesn't have enough understanding concerning lifestyle or life cycle of user individually, and it also means lack of comprehension and of flexibility, layout from modular coordination and planning of housing component. Therefore, according to the flexibility, the major goal of this research is to analyze the difficulty in realizing further of flexible housing in Korea and suggest implementation and alternatives or directions of flexible housing in Korea.

The purpose of this research is firstly to derive regular sizes of average dwellings in Korea and to examine minimum living standards in light of those regular dwellings in order to meet future housing requirements of low income households. Two plan types of unit floor area 60 $m^2$ and 85 $m^2$ have become prevalent and ubiquitous so as to reflect the basic requirements of ordinary living standards. Thus, dimensional characteristics of each space in those two plan types is thoroughly investigated in this research. The background of regular plans and their popularized process is first reviewed and the 120 cases of apartment units which were constructed between 2000 and 2007, are selected from those three regional groups and surveyed in detail. The area, depth, width and proportion of each space of unit plans are compared and analyzed in various aspects. As a result, proper space sizes and standards for low income households are reviewed and compared. The regional difference of space dimensions is not significant as expected but area and size characteristics of each space is very much regularized and obvious. And it is argued that those dimensional characteristics should convey the social and cultural values of Korean housing. The average dimensions of each spaces of surveyed apartment unit turns out to be much closer to guidable living standards rather than minimum living standards. Thus, it is very probable that the present guidable living standards could be upgraded to become the future minimum living standards soon.
