Abstract Since the Enforcement Decree of the Housing Act was changed in 2007, remodeling demands have increased. For this reason, many research studies are actively discussed for vitalizing remodeling, but countermeasure plan for generated construction waste is not enough. This study aims to provide basic data for the reduction plan of construction waste caused by the remodeling project through the investigation of apartments residents' priorities about remodeling elements for reducing construction waste. In this study, remodeling elements have been drawn through the literature investigation. As a result, subordinates were classified into 21 elements and superordinate were classified into 6 elements. Expert interviews were conducted to check the reliability about subordinate and superordinate elements of remodeling and the questionnaire survey were conducted to determine the resident's preference of apartments remodeling elements. As a result of the questionnaire survey, we found out the characteristic of preference for apartments remodeling elements such as the period of apartment, the location and the financial condition respectively. This study presents a basic data for considering the remodeling as well as the apartment plans for the resident's preference. Further, many studies about the reduction plan of construction waste caused by the remodeling project will have to be discussed.
