Abstract

The ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport announced that they launched the pilot project to offer Happy House built with modular construction as part of the major projects of incumbent government in 2013. The market size of modular construction is getting increasingly enlarged together with strong will of government. The major challenges that current modular construction encounters can be summed up as lack of standardization of material on the stage of design and fabrication. The portion of material costs in modular construction marks 16 to 17% higher than the existing other construction method, and account for 60 % of total construction cost, which is why material management is the most important factor. However, the imperfect standardization and specification on design causes high loss of materials on fabrication, which makes the construction wastes and total construction cost increasing in accordance with the increase of material costs. This study has been conducted to verify major modules by developing optimization algorithm on gypsum board material among wall finishing materials. It is expected that this paper contributes not only to eco-friendly construction by minimizing the waste factors of materials through these efforts, but also to removing high cost issues which had been recognized as a setback of current modular construction.

2013년 국토교통부에서는 현 정부의 주요 국정과제인 행복주택 사업의 일부를 모듈러건축 시스템으로 시범공급하겠다라고 밝혔다. 이처럼 모듈러 건축에 대한 정부의 적극적인 의지와 함께 모듈러 건축시장의 규모도 점차 확대되고 있다. 현재 모듈러건축의 주요 문제점으로 설계-제작단계에 있어 자재 및 부품의 표준화 또는 규격화 미비가 거론된다. 이때, 모듈러건축은 기존의 타공법에 비해 재료비의 비중이 16~17% 높은, 전체공사비의 60%를 차지 할 정도로 자재관리가 중요하다고 판단된다. 하지만, 설계상의 표준화 또는 규격화의 미비로 제작단계의 자재 손실율이 높아지게 되고, 이에 따른 건설폐기물 뿐만 아니라, 재료비 증가에 따른 전체 공사비도 증가하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 벽체 마감자재 중 석고보드 자재에 대한 손실율을 최소화 할 수 있는 최적화 알고리즘을 개발하여 대상 사례의 주요 모듈에 대해 검증하고자 한다. 이를 통해, 자재의 낭비적인 요소를 최소화하여 친환경 건축에 기여할 뿐만 아니라, 현 모듈러건축의 단점으로 인지되고 있는 고비용의 경제성 문제를 해소하는데 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.
