Abstract In recent years, there has been growing interests in the performance of multi-family housing worldwide. It is a way of considering occupants more than before. Consumers are attaching importance to good performance as well as economic value of housing. The Housing Performance Grading Indication System is an effective system to improve housing performance and satisfy consumers' requirements. However, in operation of this system, several problems have been appeared, especially in the Biotops Area Ratio which is an assessment standard of landscape grading in the system. This study examines closely the problem occurring in calculation of Biotops Area Ratio and suggests complement methods. After suggesting precise criteria according to each space type, a table containing improved methods for area calculation and self verification is proposed. For better operation of this systems, It is a priority to propagate its purpose and information on calculation method and manual. This research was supported by a grant (06ConstructionCoreB02) from High-tech Urban Development Program (HUDP) funded by Ministry of Land, Transport, Maritime Affairs of Korea Government.
