Abstract:
The article considers the problem of great amount of communal apartments in Saint-Petersburg. There are several types of a settling program. One of the types is considered in this project, when the apartments in the old houses are purchased by people with high incomes who are able to resettle communal apartments. This project considered apartment in the Meltzer’s apartment house. Mainly practical things were developed, like a rational replan of the initial project, a certain amount of rooms with determined purposes, architectural and planning division of the apartment into guest and personal zones. As a result of reconstruction, initial compartment areas are recovered by combining the later created rooms. Long and narrow corridors converted into spacious halls.

Abstract:
The location of the entrance and its relation to the main functional apartment groups in multi-storey, multi-family buildings, is to a great extent determined by the organizational concept of the apartment. The apartments with auxiliary entrances are less present in practice, majority of apartments fit the spatial frame of the building itself. The apartments can border with the next apartment on the same floor, be oriented towards one or more facades, but what is of key importance in determining the number of apartment entrances and their positioning is the size of contact zone between the apartment and common communication areas, as well as the configuration of the apartment. The aims of this paper include the analysis of the main positions of the entrance and the concepts of apartment organization that they determine, analysis of characteristic concepts of two-entrance apartments in multi-storey, multi-family buildings and re-examination of the relation between the introduction of the additional entrance and the necessity of having constant or occasional segregation of certain activities in them.

Abstract:
Vista Angkasa Apartment is one of the oldest apartments in the Bangsar South area, with a total of 8 blocks and consisting of more than 1000 units of houses. Currently, all the transaction related to the maintenance of each apartment is recorded manually. It is very difficult to manage all the data manually and if some information is required urgently then to obtain it also is very difficult. It will not only take a lot of time, but it also increases the chances of errors. Therefore, to solve the issues faced, an apartment management system that allows management staff to view the apartment’s data and tenant’s data as well as maintenance requests, notices and complaints has been developed. It also increases the efficiency and the effectiveness of Vista Angkasa Apartment Management by eliminating the current manual system. Compilation of data can be done easily with just a click of mouse. The methodology that has been applied to develop the system will be Agile with the PHP programming language. The developed system has successfully tested with the real time data at the Vista Angkasa Apartment. Based on the obtained results, the Vista Angkasa Apartment Management System solved the current issues with the management office and tenants.

Abstract:
In the context of economic downturn, Russian households seek to preserve their savings by investing them on local housing market. The research shows a decrease in the newly-built apartment’s average size that leads to the suggestion that apartment purchases on Russian housing market are in many cases investments by their nature. On the example of the Tomsk primary housing market, we reveal that small-sized apartments as an investment medium has sufficiently high quality characteristics which ensures their liquidity. The availability of investments is guaranteed by reducing the size of an apartment.

Abstract:
The objective of this study is to establish the determinants that significantly influence apartment prices that are located within housing estates of Nairobi metropolitan area. The determinants comprise of apartments features including: proximity to shopping malls, proximity to Nairobi’s central business district, proximity to schools, proximity to slums, presence of swimming pool, presence of balcony, size of the apartment, periodic rental income and land value. Both secondary and primary data sources were employed in the research and 30 housing estates where apartment are located were selected for data collection purposes. Multiple regression analysis was employed for the secondary data and the findings indicated that: land value and size of the apartments had a significant influence on apartment pricing. Descriptive statistical analysis findings indicated that proximity to shopping malls, proximity to Nairobi’s central business district, proximity to schools, presence of swimming pool, size of the apartments and land value had significant influence on apartment prices. Triangulation of secondary and primary data analysis results indicated a consistency rate of 50%. The recommendation of the study is that real estate stakeholders especially buyers should focus on size and land value of apartments as these significantly influence apartment pricing in Nairobi metropolitan area.

Abstract:
Apartments were crucial solutions to provide sufficient dwellings and to improve residential environment quality in the period after the Korean War. Thirty years after the first rush of apartment construction, many of those apartments have been demolished. However, several small-scale apartment complexes or single-building apartments without collective estates were not included in reconstruction efforts due to property, ownership, and reconstruction feasibility issues. Four such apartments remain in the Seoul Station Urban Regeneration Area. Although they are considered severely deteriorated, their architectural, historical, and cultural heritage values warrant inclusion in the Seoul Future Heritage list. From the perspective of urban regeneration, these apartments should be targeted for revitalization not only to preserve their originality but to improve the quality of sustainable building conditions and operations. In this study, we examine Choongjeong Apartment, Hoehyeon Civic Apartment, St.Joseph Apartment, and Seosomun Apartment in terms of balance among six heritage values and their improvement needs, as well as possible revitalization strategies that support sustainable urban regeneration in the area. We argue that their physical conditions can be brought up to applicable building codes, if financial support is forthcoming and numerous decision-makers allow. However, sustainable revitalization of apartments requires examination of factors affecting adaptive reuse. Through a literature and data collection review within an analysis framework, we analyze factors and issues for adaptive reuse of the four apartments. It is expected that the findings of this paper will provide insight into the role of various actors determining and taking actions for strategic physical interventions and change of uses.

Abstract:
This study analyzes apartment building configurations in waterfront residential areas relative to water flow direction and assesses the waterfront impact on apartment construction planning. It surveyed 197 apartment buildings around Yangjaecheon, Gulpocheon, and Anyangcheon, three branches of the Han River, a major South Korean river, to ascertain the correlation between stream flows and apartment building configurations. The apartments were classified into four spatial-configuration categories relative to the adjacent stream’s flow axis—perpendicular, parallel, diagonal, and other—and three orientation categories—east- and/or west-facing, south-facing, and other. South-facing apartments were predominant around west- and north-flowing streams. The proportion of east- and/or west-facing apartments built and the percentage of south-facing apartments were relatively low, indicating that apartment building layouts are more diverse around north-flowing streams than around west-flowing streams. A t-test analysis of east- and south-facing apartments’ proportions relative to stream flow direction was statistically significant, and there were relatively higher percentages of east- and west-facing apartments near north-flowing streams than west-flowing ones. This suggests that the relationship with rivers is still important in urban housing in South Korea, and the importance of landscapes over the river is of increasing significance for planning urban settlements.

Abstract:
Insufficient air exchange of apartments in gasified apartment residential buildings, as well as an apartment’s air balance when using mechanical ventilation can cause the formation and accumulation of carbon monoxide. This work is aimed at studying the air exchange of apartments when installing kitchen hoods in apartment buildings, as well as insufficient air permeability of windows in PVC (Polyvinyl chloride) bindings during the cold season. Analytical calculations and a full-scale experiment are carried out in two apartments with and without kitchen hood. The calculated air exchanges, actual air exchanges are determined: in normal operation by tenants and in conditionally maximum operating mode with open windows. The comparison of the results of analytical calculations with experimental data shows insufficient air permeability of PVC windows to maintain the necessary air exchange of natural ventilation. It becomes obvious that there are two ways to increase air exchange: regulated - opening vents and non-normative - installation of mechanical hoods. At the same time, the use of mechanical hoods can disrupt the operation of the natural ventilation system.

Abstract- This paper takes on how is the effectivity and efficiency of the area, zoning, internal circulation, and space on apartment unit type 2 bedrooms in 5 years span since 1994-2018 because based on data obtained, growth and apartment price is increasing so much that the existence of apartments in the future is predicted to keep increasing. Apartment growth should have produced an efficient and effective unit to gain more clients. Because of that, this research is needed to obtain a more efficient and more effective unit in the future. Based on literature and data from various apartments, 2-bedroom type is the most designed and always built in those apartments. Worksheets or brochures is the first impression of apartment units from clients’ point of view, that is why layout in those brochures will be affecting the market and becoming a benchmark for layout designing in the real unit so the efficiency and effectivity could be seen.To know how effective and efficient the units are by counting the floor efficiency ratio and netto-bruto calculation. Besides, this research is also using minimum standards requirements to support the design of 2 bed rooms apartment units. In this research, the changing factors which are the area, zoning, internal circulation also space in each of the apartment units are to be compared from time to time to get the pattern occurs. The chosen research objects are Taman Rasuna Apartment which is the pioneer of apartment growth in Indonesia and then Wisma Gading Permai, The Majesty, The Summit, Galeri Ciumbuleuit 2, Scientia Residences, M Town Residences, and Branz BSD.This research shows that area, zoning, and layout, internal circulation, and space are affecting the effectivity and efficiency of 2 bed rooms apartment units. The result shows that the highest completion number of effectivity and efficiency in the area, zoning, internal circulation, and space is 75% which in 1998-2012 and the lowest is 50% in 1994 and 2018. From 8 apartments, no unit reaches 100% efficient nor effective because based on factors, there is also none that reach such efficiency and effectivity.

Abstract:
Abstract The German cockroach, Blattella germanica (L.) (Blattodea: Blattellidae), is a major residential pest with the potential to vector various pathogens and produce and disseminate household allergens. Understanding population genetic structure and differentiation of this important pest is critical to efforts to eradicate infestations, yet little is known in this regard. Using highly polymorphic microsatellite markers, we investigated patterns of genetic diversity and differentiation within and among 18 apartments from six apartment complexes located in Raleigh, NC. No departure from panmixia was found between rooms within apartments, indicating that active dispersal resulting in gene flow may occur among rooms within apartment units. Alternatively, aggregations within apartments may exist in relative isolation under a metapopulation framework, derived from a recent, common source. Thus, in the event of population control practices leading to incomplete cockroach eradication within an apartment, recolonization of shelters and rooms is likely to occur from a genetically similar aggregation. A pattern of isolation-by-distance across the six apartment complexes indicated that dispersal was more common within complexes than among them, and F statistics suggested greater genetic similarity between apartments in a single building than between separate buildings of an apartment complex. Similarly, neighbor-joining tree and Bayesian clustering analyses were able to cluster only those apartments that were within a single building, indicating higher dispersal with associated gene flow within buildings than between them. The lack of any broader connectivity, as indicated by significant FST and G-tests suggests that human-mediated dispersal of B. germanica between buildings of an apartment complex or between complexes occurs infrequently enough to have negligible effects on gene flow.

To accommodate the rapid modernization and urbanization between 1960s and 1980s, a large number of mid-rise apartments has been built in Taipei. Today, these poorly designed apartments represent about 40 percent of the total residential buildings in the city, as much as 3,000,000 housing units. It has become a city-scale social issue, since these apartments no longer !t the needs of aging and wealthier inhabitants. People have been finding ways to modify and improve their living space. However, generally, these building improvements are limited to a relatively small scale due to the in"influence of the "floating real estate market and the high owner-occupied rate in the city. With limited legislation for apartment maintenance, it is di#cult for the existing communities to reach a consensuses that achieves the building improvements on a larger scale, such as creating more space for public amenities. Today, the local government is promoting a series of city renewal policies to rebuild these aging apartments. In this situation, architects have a chance to create a new housing system with well-established regulations. $e new system will help to well distribute the levels of control and provide greater adaptability to !t the living culture in Taipei City.

Abstract:
Real estate prices have during the last two decades seen a large increase. The increased prices together with more regulations of mortgages have created a market where it is difficult to enter. Moreover, a low rate of construction, resulting in a low supply of apartments have further created an exclusive market. To better understand the structure of the market, and to create a more inclusive market, this thesis has further looked at the pricing structure. This thesis uses two fixed effects models to determine which factors affect apartment prices in metropolitan regions of Sweden, i.e., Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö. A time period of 2005-2019 was researched, and 44 municipalities were included. Variables used in the model was population density, income, tax rate, unemployment rate, and mortgage rate. Results show that population density and income have a positive effect on apartment prices, while tax rate, mortgage rate and unemployment rate have a negative effect. The results are discussed in regard to supply and demand, which are the main drivers of the housing market.

Abstract:
Today, on the Swedish house market there exist many apartments that go on sale each day. Because people generally want to get a better grip on the final price of apartments, there is a need for an analytic tool that can empower individuals to make an informed decision when selling or buying. In this thesis, we present a model that can be used as a complimentary tool to predict the final price of apartments on Södermalm, Stockholm. The data that the model is based on is gathered from the broker firm Södermäklarna. The underlying model depends on variables such as living space, number of rooms, area, among other important factors. The result shows that almost all of these aforementioned variables are statistically significant in the model. Furthermore we show that the standard error of the entire regression model is about 12% and that two of the most important factors are living space and number of rooms. We also show that in some cases, by just adding a room to an apartment, it can raise the final price substantially. We conclude in this thesis that the model is capable of predicting prices on apartments to some extent. But considering the standard error we conclude that there is room for improvement, one way of doing this is to add more observation objects and variables.

Banciao is a district in Taipei, Taiwan where I lived for four years during my undergraduate studies. The narrative is based on my experiences living away from home for the first time in an unfamiliar city. After having lived in different areas, I became interested in how people react and adapt to new environments. Our viewpoints change when we experience different cultures. For me, it is one of the most profound things that I have done in my life.

Abstract:
Cross ventilation is a more effective ventilation strategy in comparison to single-sided ventilation. In the NSW Residential Flat Design Code1 (RFDC) the majority of apartments are required to adopt cross ventilation. However, in the case of studio and one-bedroom apartments, it is acknowledged that single-sided ventilation may prevail. Deep plan studio and one-bedroom apartments may achieve lower amenity of summer thermal comfort and indoor air quality where mechanical ventilation is not provided by air conditioning. Since compliance with the code may allow up to 40% of apartments in a development in Sydney to be single sided, it is important to understand the natural ventilation performance of such apartments. The objective of this paper is to investigate the natural ventilation potential in single-sided ventilated apartments to improve indoor air quality and thermal comfort. This investigation includes simulating various facade treatments involving multiple opening and balcony configurations. Balcony configurations are included in this study because, in Sydney, a balcony is a compulsory architectural element in any apartment building. The study uses computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software to simulate and predict the ventilation performance of each apartment configuration. This study suggests that properly configured balconies and openings can significantly improve indoor ventilation performance for enhanced indoor air quality and thermal comfort, by optimizing the available prevailing wind. However, it is important to note that inappropriately designed fac¸ade treatments also could diminish natural ventilation performance.

The purpose of the study is to investigate the potential of the CO2-based tracer gas methods for the ventilation performance evaluation in apartment buildings. To test and elaborate the methods, the ventilation air change rate (ACR) and air change efficiency (ACE) measurements were performed. The methods were tested in laboratory conditions and apartments with natural ventilation, room-based ventilation units, exhaust ventilation and mechanical exhaust ventilation with fresh air radiators. Concentration decay method is applied with both artificially and naturally increasing the concentration of tracer gas. The ACR is also calculated using metabolic constant dosing method with the effective volume. As the traditional tracer gas methods give the correct result only in case of perfect mixed ventilation, then the ACE is also measured. To observe the effectiveness of the air change and the level of air mixing multiple CO2 sensors placed in different positions. The tracer gas measurements were carried out in naturally ventilated apartments to study the influence of the inner doors to the ACE. The daily variation of CO2 level in case the long-term CO2 measurements gives us the possibility to calculate the ACR when inhabitants are sleeping or have left the apartment. Using the CO2 as the natural tracer gas and the concentration decay method together with the metabolic constant dosing strategy, we can calculate the CO2 concentrations according to the long-term CO2 measurements without knowing the exact emission of inhabitants. The studied methods are inexpensive and at the same time sufficiently accurate for airflow measurements. Another reason for the study comes from the ventilation retrofit process in Estonia where the single room ventilation units are used. As these wall-mounted ventilation units are sensitive to in- and outside pressure differences the measurement of ventilation airflow in the traditional way can be inaccurate.

Based upon our previous study, we do know that in China living habits and local climate mainly influence the shape of residential buildings and apartment patterns, but we do not know whether the pattern of residential plots determined by FAR and sunshine hours are suitable for wind environment related to residential environmental quality. Therefore, it is very significant to evaluate wind environment within residential plots based on the apartment pattern controlled by various building codes. Our study focuses on the pattern of Slab apartments in Nanjing, which are mainly used in China, and selects 40 residential slices with different plot shapes, plot FAR, building heights and sizes. Based upon MATLAB, we have got all geometrical data between buildings among these slices to identify the spatial pattern character of each residential plot. Through evaluating wind environment of these slices by simulation we can obtain wind speed, pressure and age of air and choose the pattern of age of air as the main evaluation factor of wind performance. Correlation analysis will be made between the apartment patterns and pattern of age of air, by doing so, each typical space between buildings will be evaluated. Our study will reveal the relevance of apartment pattern and wind environment, which can be used to support and improve design in the future. References(95 words) Oke. T.

Abstract:
A cogeneration system which can be used as a distributed generation source produces electricity and heat energy simultaneously from a single source of fuel. For industrial and domestic applications, where both kinds of energy are required, the cogeneration system can return fossil fuel energy savings up to 30%, and can reduce CO2 emissions correspondingly as compared with a conventional system. In this study, eight apartments with residential areas in the range of 7200 m2 to 18200 m2 were chosen to study how much energy savings can be achieved by adoption of the cogeneration system in those apartments. Based on the energy demand data for heat and electricity, an optimum configuration of the cogeneration system for each apartment was determined by a developed computer program. The economic gain achieved by introducing the cogeneration system in those apartments was estimated and the monitored values compared with the estimated ones. By adoption of the cogeneration system, the fossil fuel saved was more than 30% and an average economic gain of $3.6/m2 per year was obtained.

Abstract:
Bio-terrorism events (like the 2001 anthrax attacks) accentuate the importance of countering these incidents. In order to develop reliable countermeasures for these events, it is essential to understand the associated transport processes. The transport processes involved pose challenges as they occur over wide ranges of spatial and temporal scales. CONTAMW, a multi zone indoor air quality and ventilation analysis program is used to predict the contaminant dispersal in an apartment building. Detailed simulation results and analysis of controlled release of propylene within a generic apartment building is presented. A zonal analysis is carried out for the entire apartment building (using CONTAMW) to obtain time histories of propylene concentration in different zones. The simulations provide the dispersion, transport and contaminant concentration within each zone of the apartment. This study also considers the effect of flow obstructions and ventilation rates on contaminant dispersal. The results are validated with the experimental results reported in Cybyk et al. (1999). We have also simulated propylene transport in the apartment with FDS, a large eddy simulation model.
