| Establishment of the Repair Cycle of the Components of the Apartment Housing | |
 | |
Building has been deteriorated over the year after construction. The deterioration has caused to hinder the living condition and to decrease the building value. Thus, it is important to prevent or delay the building deterioration as well as to proceed the maintenance. The long-term repair program for the apartment in Korea plays a key role to make the repair plan after construction and to assure the function decent. This is not flexible to the change of the material and component because the program is provided by the Korean-law. Many items are omitted in the long-term program so that the maintenance experts face many difficulties to make a repair plan.
In this paper, it aimed at providing the repair cycle and repair ratio according to the repair scope, which are not provided in the current program. This study shows that the repair ratio is presented with quartile range in 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%. This has an advantage to take an overall look in repair items. Under this presentation of the repair ratio, each item has a unique repair value. Second, the repair scope is divided into partly repair, fully repair, partly alteration and fully alteration. If a fully repair has a repair ratio close to 100%, it would mean that a fully repair is a fully alteration. Third, the short repair cycle means that it requires to maintain the function or performance of the components in a short term.

The building has the characteristics to gradually deteriorate as time passes by after construction. Unlike the general consumables, it has long life span and requires the maintenance activities including the improving and repairing in order to keep the designed living environment. The apartments are the representative type among the communal housing in the urban housing types. Presently in 2012, the ratio of the apartment buildings take on the national level is about 59%, while in the city it is above 65%. Likewise, the apartments are predicted to be continuously supplied as the urban housing's major type.
The communal housing supply including the apartments is continuously growing, while the continuous maintenance activities, such as improving and repairing, have to be accompanied in order to secure the living environment at a certain level. Currently, for the communal housing building maintenance after construction, the maintenance plans are prepared utilizing the Long-term Repair Plan Establishment Standard.1) However, the contents in the Long-term Repair Plan Establishment Standard of the Housing Laws do not reflect the building technology, material, construction method, function of component, etc., that are being improved/developed. Thus, when the new structural and construction method, materials are included in the field, it is the general practice to set up the improving and repairing timing, repair rate assuming from the existing items. In other words, in the communal housing maintenance field, it doesn't specify clearly the repair replacement item division or include the new construction method or materials and the maintenance plan and implementation is realistically being limited.
Thus, in this study we intend to propose the repair timing and repair rate for the structural and construction method, material and member, part, etc., that the Long Term Repair Plan Establishment Standard doesn't specify for the apartments maintenance. Such study results can be utilized as the fundamental data for the repair plan to establish the apartments function and performance of the new member, material, parts, etc., that are not being provided by the establishment standard of the existing long term repair plan.
The Long-term Repair Plan proposes 6 main division categories and the repair timing and rates for the repairing building construction for each item. However, it doesn't provide the repair timing, repair rate, etc. for the new construction contents for the technology development of the construction methods and materials. In this study, with the construction materials and members as the subject matter that are not being specified in the long term repair plan, we proposed the repair timing and the repair rate. The study method and contents are as follows:
1st, the subject construction for the analysis was limited to the apartments among the communal housing. Also, the building exterior and the interior were set up as the subject among the 6 long term repair plan establishment due to the limitations of the data collection.
2nd, the long term repair plan data was collected per construction works for the building exterior and interior being recorded at the management center. Based on the collected data, we extracted the construction material that is not being proposed in the existing "[*5] Long-term Repair Plan Establishment Standard." The construction, members, and materials of the extracted building exterior and interior are shown in <Table 1>.

| e. stair | imitation stone flooring, mortar flooring, astile flooring, stair nonslip, steel handrail, stainless handrail, oil painting, terazzo flooring, granite stone flooring, patterned coat, fire door |
3rd, at the management center the collected data gets divided into the main categories as per its construction into repair timing, repair range, repair rate, etc. The repair range is divided into the part repair, frontal repair, part replacement and frontal replacement. On the other hand, in the “Long-term Repair Plan Establishment Standard”, two of the 4 repair ranges are selected for the repair period, and the repair rate.
Thus, for the subject of this study, among the extracted construction, materials, and members, the items with the repair range that is not specified in the Long-term Repair Plan were analyzed.
The maintenance plan of the communal housing is established after the construction. According to the Housing Law Article 47, the long term repair plan is established for the common part of the communal housing and is transferred to the management body, when the standard subject to the long-term repair plan establishment are targeting communal housing exceeding 300 units, communal housing with elevators installed and with central heating method.
Likewise, the communal housing management establishes the long term repair plan by the Housing Law and on the other hand, the expenses are accrued as the long-term repair cost, when the long-term repair expenses are used based on the long-term repair plan. In the long-term repair plan the repair construction subject to facility, drawings, construction period and construction method, etc. are clearly established and according to them the long term repair cost is used.
The housing law implementation regulations set up the long-term repair plan subjects and propose the repair period and rates according to the repair range. There are 6 main divisions as follows : building exterior, building interior, electricity, fire extinguisher, elevator and intelligence home network equipment, water supply, hygiene, gas and ventilation system, heating and water heating system, exterior adjunct facility and exterior well-being facility. Each division includes the diverse items, for which the repair timing and the repair rate are specified according to the repair range of the part repair, frontal repair, part replacement, frontal replacement, etc. The long-term repair plan is revised every 3 years; if more than half of the residents provide written agreements regarding the management conditions, facilitating the new major facilities, the work can be facilitated before the 3 years time passes.
In order to establish the long-term repair plan, there have to be the clear standards established in many parts regarding the accumulated subject range, long-term repair cost accumulation rate, the unclearness of the long-term repair plan establishment standard, common part and exclusive right part division, long-term repair cost collection method, etc. From these, the contents to be improved in this study based on the part of the related long term repair plan establishment items are as follows:
1st, the building technology is constantly being developed regarding the material, member, structural and construction method, etc. On the other hand, in the longterm repair plan, such technology development is not keeping up with the flexible adaptations. In applying the developed construction method and material, there are limitations in proposing the repair range, repair period, repair rate.
2nd, in applying a new technology or materials, it is difficult to establish the expected contents durable period. In other words, there are limitations in specifying the contents durable period of the member or materials for the repair period and rate.
3rd, as there are limitations in predicting the repair period and rate for the new technology or new material, in calculating the necessary long term repair cost, clear rate is not specified. Thus, in the field it is the general practice to apply the construction or material similar to the existing to accumulate the long-term repair cost.
In establishing the repair period and the repair rate for such long-term repair plan establishment subject, there are limitations in applying the new technology and the new material. Thus, the repair period and the repair rate data are required to organically adapt in applying the diverse building material and technology.
In order to calculate the repair period and repair rate for the construction materials and parts that are not being specified in the Long-term Repair Plan Establishment Standard, data is collected to prepare for the long-term repair plan with the communal housing management center as the subjects.2) These data are collected for the new material and construction as well as the subject item, preparing the long-term repair plan in the field. The reviewed data are the repair period per the repair range, repair rate, and the number of the samples, etc. The repair range is divided into the part repair, frontal repair, part replacement and frontal replacement, etc. The proposed repair period and the repair rate have processed statistically, representing the mean values of the sample group. The analysis result is separated into two groups, building exterior and interior and summarized as follows:
<Table 2> shows the repair period and the repair rate for the construction or material the long term repair plan does not specify. In the asphalt waterproofing layers of the building roof items, the part replacement shows the 9 year repair period and the 15% repair rate. For Urethane waterproofing, the part repair has a 5 year repair period and 20% level repair rate. On the other hand, the frontal repair has about 10 year repair period, according to the investigation/analysis. In liquid waterproofing, it requires a 15 year part repair period, when the repair rate shows 14% level. The roof finish part repair period is about 5 years and its repair rate 10% level. Also, in the case of the frontal repair, the repair period is about 14 years and its repair rate about 70%.

Among the wall elements, the water base painting and oil base painting part repair is set up about 2 years with its repair rate 14% level; the synthetic resin painting part repair, about 6 years period, with its repair rate about 11% level; the wall pattern coating frontal repair, 5 year period and about 75% repair rate; the mortar finish frontal repair, about 19 year repair period and repair rate 77%.
Among the floor finishing material elements, the granite stone finishing part repair and the frontal repair period 6 years and 13 years each, its repair rate 6%, 52% level each; the epoxy finishing part repair and frontal repair, the repair period, 4 years, 19 years each, with its repair rate 16% and 83% level; for the floor finishing excluding the granite stone and marble stone, the part repair and frontal repair period, 5 years and 13 years each, with its repair rate 17%, 80% each.
Among the building interior windows and window frames, for the plastic frontal repair period is about 25 years, with its repair rate at 90% level. For the steel window frame, the part repair and the frontal repair periods are each 12 years and 21 years, with their repair rates each at 13%, 68%. The fire doors' part repair period is 10 years, and the frontal repair period 23 years, with their repair rates each at 16%, 85% level.
Among the building interior space, the part repair and the frontal repair period for the synthetic stone paving installed at the stair are each 10 years and 20 years, with their repair rates each at 6%, 98%. For the mortar finish, the part repair and the frontal repair period are each 5 years and 21 years, with their repair rates each at 11%, 100%, as analyzed. Also, for the floor asphalt tiles paving that is recently popular, the part repair and the frontal repair period are each 5 years and 11 years, with their repair rates each at 19%, 99%. For the non-slip staircases, the part repair, the frontal repair, and the frontal replacement period are each 5 years, 19 years, 20 years, when the frontal repair and frontal replacement shows 100% repair rate, whereas the frontal repair and the frontal replacement do not show much difference. The frontal replacement timing for the steel railing is about 24 years; stainless steel (S.S.) railing about 15 years. The granite stone finishing part repair and frontal repair period can be set up 14 years and18 years each, with their repair rates 10% and 75% each.
The communal housing tend to deteriorate after construction as time passes. The building deterioration not only ruins the living environment, but also lowers the building value. Thus, in order to prevent the building deterioration after construction as time passes, there has to be the mid to long-term plan along with the maintenance activities, such as the improving and repairing, repair. The Long-term Repair Plan Establishment Standard plays the fundamental data role for the maintenance plan establishment, such as the after construction plan repair for the construction , member, material, that compose the communal housing.
However, this is prepared by the related regulations and is not actively responding in terms of the material or method, technology development. In this study, we provided the repair period and the repair rate as per the repair range for the member, part, materials that are not specified in the Long-term Repair Plan Establishment Standard.
1st, in this study the repair ranges are divided into the part repair , the frontal repair , the part replacement, and the frontal replacement, and the long term repair plan data prepared in the field was collected, by which we can determine that the material or member whose frontal repair rate being close to 100% is the same as the frontal replacement.
2nd, for the repair period and the repair rate for each member and material, part, etc. we utilized the mean value by statistically processing the collected data. The repair rate provides the diverse values in the 1~100% range. However, the repair rate means the repair degree for each member or part and it is provided first in the quartile units, such as 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%, rather than the concrete values. This can be explained for the overall repair rates as per the repair range for the part and the member. And more detailed repair rate, i.e., 10%, 15%, based on the quartile units.
3rd, the frontal repair and the frontal replacement shows the similar repair timing and repair rate, excluding some materials or members. This is seen as focused on the meaning of replacement rather than the repair.
Such study result provides the repair period and repair rate for the member, part, material, that are not specified in the Long-term Repair Plan Establishment Standard, based on which the long term repair plan can be more effectively prepared. However, this study result is the analysis of the long term repair plan data collected in the field, and therefore, the characteristics such as the neighborhood size or the building type are not reflected, or the used member, quality of the component, performance, etc. as well. In order to overcome such limitations, it is expected that we need the model to predict the performance reduction process as per the member and the material quality. Also, to remove the item confusion, recording errors that might come up from the preparation process of the long term repair plan, a written manual is required for the long term repair plan that is prepared concretely.
1) Housing Law implementing regulations [*5] are divided into 6 common areas in the apartment buildings and specifying each the repair timing, repair range, repair rates, composing the construction, part, and material.
2) The parts of the repair timing, repair rate of the new material of the construction are done based on the field experts' knowledge and experience.
