| Abstract |
There are eighteen specific codes in relation with building construction including KBC(Korea Building Code) to achieve appropriate construction quality. These codes were established or revised in a separate way focusing on the safety and functional purpose without an agreement of technical terms, and don't reflect the current trends of green design, sustainable development and public welfare. In this point of view it is necessary to revise the KBC globalized including green and welfare beyond the scope, safety and function, in the existing code. This paper aims to propose the orientation to establish or revise the KBC by comparison of codes of seven countries, analyzing their features and implications on the area of building material and construction (KBC-MC). |
