The environment draws attention in the global community and a growing number of Koreans have interest in improving the quality of life, the importance of house environment has attracted the attention of the public. Against this backdrop, constructors have unveiled environmentally -friendly projects. However, they failed to establish people-oriented environment by being occupied with maximizing profitability through the improvement of brand image and caused sick house syndrome that has recently made controversy. In this regard, the study analyzed the mechanism of discharge of TVOC, one of the sick house syndrome-causing materials, that affects IAQ and its characteristics and examined the effect that granodiorite has on reduction of the discharge of TVOC in order to minimize damage. Experimental sample consisted of interior finishing materials frequently used in ceiling, wall and floor and adhesives used at a time of construction, and the TVOC of building materials was measured through the use of septum bottle unlike In the existing chamber method. Measures to counter the sick house syndrome were suggested by reducing the possible damage from the stage of selection of building material and by figuring out the effect that the granodiorite has on reduction of the discharge of TVOC.

Recently, the number of cases of fire spreading due to exterior materials of buildings is increasing. Due to the nature of modern architecture, which emphasizes the aesthetics of buildings, because buildings pursue a splendid appearance, they are inexpensive and have relatively good insulation performance, but an increasing number of buildings are adopting insulation materials that have poor fire safety performance. The risk of spread is also greatly increased. Since the exterior wall of a building is made of a variety of materials and structures, it is composed of a combination of several elements, including materials such as insulation and finishing materials. Therefore, it was determined that it was necessary to introduce a more systematic evaluation method for building exterior materials, and to improve the system reflecting this, away from the existing evaluation method that only checked the fire safety performance of finishing materials.

It is commonly known that water repellency of the fabric treated with fluorocarbon resin brings about a decrease by the washing and recovers by the subsequent heat treatment. In this article, effect of the water repellency was investigated on the nylon 6, triacetate and silk fabrics treated with hydrocarbon and silicon resins. Hydrocarbon and silicon resins have been widely used in the textile finishing as the softening and water proofing agents. The fabrics were treated with hydrocarbon resins, Paragium JQ and RC (Ohara Paragium Chemical Co.) and a silicon resin, Poron MR (Shinetsu Chemical Co.), and then washed and subsequently heat treated. Although the water repellency increased by the resin treatment, it decreased by the washing apparently and recovered a little by the heat treatment. The effect of the heat treatment was small comparing with that of the fluorocarbon resin. Furthermore, as a mechanical property of the treated fabric, KES shearing and bending hysteresis parameters, modulus and hysteresis width of the hydrocarbon resin-treated nylon 6, triacetate and silk fabrics decreased by the heat treatment after washing. Therefore, the treatment is effective at improving the softening of the fabric in water repellent finish.

Among several polishing techniques for micro structures, polishing process using magnetorheological(MR) fluid has advantages in the finishing process of 3-D micro structures because abrasives in the fluid can reach surfaces with complex feature and play their role. Although many researchers have been trying to reveal its polishing mechanism of the MR polishing, it has not been successful because in-situ measurement of state variables is difficult and process parameters are complex. In fact, one of the key factors for applying process control methodologies, such as Run-to-Run control, is the measuring and monitoring of slurry quality because the process strongly depends on the fluid property. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain consistent slurry quality to guarantee the process repeatability. The proposed equipment achieves the longer life cycle of MR fluid and reduces the variability of products. A new method to measure the material removal rate in MRF polishing process is also proposed and discussed.

Based on the trend of architectural lighting of residential building, this study is to examine architectural lighting for residential buildings, and deduce the value and significance of architectural lighting by analyzing architectural lighting and characteristics of residential building through the analysis of works according to the types of works and by analyzing discourse relating to works of architectural lighting of residential building. First, architectural lighting for residential buildings can be categorized according to continuity and extensibility, lighting method and lighting factor. Second, architectural lighting of residential building has come into play since 2000 due to diversified activities at home. Third, architectural lighting had been introduced for living room and used in the form of structure or foundation up until early 2000s, but since mid 2000s, it has been used in intellectual and abstract form using various shapes, finishing material or objects. Fourth characteristic is a space of changing functions overcoming limited space, suggesting an alternative space, and using finishing material and object.

In this paper, we measured the activation energy of the Bisphenol A type Epoxy resin (DGEBA)-Jeffamine system according to an irradiation. We put the mixed solutions to the silicon mold after mixing both DGEBA(216g) and Jeffamine(93.9g), curing agent of amine system. The mixed solutions were cured in the atmosphere during 24hours after finishing the first curing during 4hours in the vacuum oven under $80^{\circ}C$. The mixed solutions were cured in the atmosphere during 24hours after finishing the second curing during 12hours in the vacuum oven under $60^{\circ}C$ again. Prepared samples were irradiated to the dose rate of 8kGy/hr with 500kGy, 700kGy, 1000kGy, 1500kGy, 2000kGy, 2500kGy. Experimental results indicated activation energy of the samples reduced as the irradiation dose increased because of the peroxides of the Epoxy created by the oxidation and the radiation.

In this research, IAQ is measured to evaluate the emission performance of VOCs in three new apartment houses finished by totally EFMs (Environmental Friendly Material), partially installed EFMs and general materials. Among various VOCs, Target pollutants for the IAQ measurement are benzene, ethylbenzene, toluene, xylene, 1,4-Dichlorobenzene and formaldehyde. The measurement is conducted one day after each interior finishing material is worked over by construction schedule. The result of this research concluded that (1) Except toluene, the concentration levels of each pollutant did not exceed the national IAQ standards in all test residences, (2) As the interior finishing work schedule, A toluene level peaked when the furniture installing was ended. (3) The toluene concentration level of the house installed general interior materials as the non-EFMs furniture was one and half higher than other houses. Consequently, installing. the furniture made by EFMs is one of effective methods to improve the IAQ for new apartment houses.

The aims of this study were to Investigate the floor impact noise isolation performance of floating floor with isolation materials and propose the improvement direction of floor impact noise measurement method and evaluation classes using impact ball. Reduction of light-weight impact sound pressure level can be achieved by the finishing materials, such as vinyl finishing material and wooden flooring with isolation materials. Floor impact noise Isolation material which satisfy the properties of the floor impact noise isolation materials cause resonance in the low frequency band and worsen heavy-weight impact sound pressure level. Heavy-weight impact sound level can be reduced by using noise reduction flooring, ceiling and increase of slab thickness. Strong impact force in low frequency bang below 63Hz of bang machine is not similar to human impact source and causes some problem in evaluating heavy-weight impact noise but heavy-weight impact noise measurement and evolution using impact ball which is very similar to human impact is more reliable than bang machine. Correction value on the background noise and sensitivity of residents should be considered on the floor impact noise evaluation classes.

The purpose of this study was to verify the degree of visibility of FOLED (fiber optic light-emitting diode) materials applied to safety-enhancing clothes of micro-mobility users during the day and night by conducting an empirical test targeting 50 people in their teens, 20's, 30's, 40's, and 50's or older. First, the results of the visibility test at 10 m-intervals from 10 to 70 m based on the clothes sample showed that the light detection of FOLED material was very good without daytime or night-time distinction. Second, the results of directional sign detection of FOLED were confirmed to be very high without any daytime or night. Third, the results of identifying a pictogram design showed that the distance was shorter than that of light detection or directional indication. However, the FOLED pictogram design could be confirmed at a distance of 50 m or less. Therefore, if a clothes product using FOLED material is worn and micro-mobility is used, the experimental results indicate that safety will be sufficiently secured due to the excellent visibility.
