Abstract |
Recently, housing renovation support has been strengthened to improve the residential environment of elderly households through integrated community care projects. Although the support is mainly concentrated on the disadvantaged in housing, it is evaluated as a desirable effort in terms of reinforcing the welfare system to provide aging residents with housing remodeling support, and revitalizing the housing recycling industry through these projects. However, the housing renovation support has very low accessibility due to the lack of public relation efforts, limited eligibility, and the insecurity and uncertainty of the system. The most efficient way to increase its accessibility can be an approach using actual cases. However, as few cases have been recorded to date and there is a limitation in face-to-face contact with all eligible residents, access via an online virtual experience can be an effective alternative. This study therefore focused on collective housing buildings where the majority of the elderly currently reside and spatial information can be easily acquired. The objectification process used to construct a Building Information Model (BIM) was performed by reflecting the physical obstacles and body functions of the elderly specific to each lifestyle. A simulation system based on this model was established by setting and applying views by space. This would enable the system to generate comparative images of the conditions before and after the construction to enhance the user’s understanding as well as the drawings and details of the construction. Since construction details are also part of object information, estimates can be created by linking them with unit price information. This virtual simulation system is expected to reduce the waste of renovation costs and resident dissatisfaction, and increase the accessibility of the support project by reaching a wide range of users via an online approach. |
