The purpose of this study is to rewiew flexible housings built in the domestic housing, to arrange the characteristics and limitations, and to seek direction for development.
The object of study is cases built since 1970 to present, including apartments related to flexibility. This study synthetically consider space planning, construction methods, structure, equipment related flexibility, variable wall.
In conclusion, characteristics of flexible housing are as follows. The first, Based on the space composition of bearing wall structure, to replace load-bearing wall with column. The second, to fix wet zone. The third, Partial flexibility(install and dismantle) between rooms generally lean to adoption method when moving into. The fourth, The flexibility during dwelling has problems: the limits of construction method, insufficiency of application in movable partition accessories and facilities method of no consideration for flexibility.
Hereafter, to response to variability needs during dwelling, it must to be accept to the change of structure method, seek variable possibility including variability of wet zone, components of variable wall, the change of construction method for flexibility, application of facility method for flexibility.
