INVESTIGATION ABOUT SPATIAL REPRESENTATION OF ROOM FUNCTIONS FOR REORGANIZATION OF PUBLIC FACILITIES : A case study in Tama-city(Architectural Planning and Design)

Abstract

Recently we are paying more attention to global environment, constraints of resources and sustainable development. Repair and reuse are more effective in terms of economy and environment than rebuilding. In Tama City, public facilities were intensively constructed and in a relatively short period of time, while the population structure and needs are continuously changing. In this study, we grasped the public facilities analyzing its spatial representation of room functions and construction materials, grouping volumes with similar construction specifications in order to reorganize the public facilities providing a reuse technique.
