도심 소규모 필지 건축에서 부설주차장 설치기준의 구조적 영향에 관한 연구 = A Study on the Structural Impacts of Mandatory Parking Requirements on Small Urban Plots

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Small urban plots in dense city centers often exhibit constrained physical conditions, including limited lot size, irregular parcel shapes, narrow street frontage, and high surrounding development pressure. These characteristics create structural challenges for new construction, remodeling, and functional conversion of existing buildings. Among the various regulatory factors influencing these constraints, parking requirements serve as one of the most decisive determinants of development feasibility. However, current parking standards are uniformly applied across diverse urban contexts and do not adequately consider the unique characteristics of compact urban parcels.
This study conducts a qualitative examination of how parking standards operate within small urban plots in central Seoul and identifies the structural limitations that arise from the mismatch between regulation and physical conditions. Through a review of planning regulations, institutional frameworks, and relevant literature, the research outlines recurrent constraints—such as minimum parking quotas, driveway slope requirements, and the application of new standards to existing buildings—that collectively restrict development feasibility, limit achievable building scale, and hinder the adaptive reuse of aging structures.
The findings demonstrate that the rigid and undifferentiated application of parking requirements significantly undermines the feasibility of building development in dense urban centers. Accordingly, the study suggests that differentiated standards tailored to lot size, walkability, and transit accessibility are necessary to restore development viability and support sustainable inner-city regeneration. While conceptual in nature, this research provides a foundational perspective for future empirical investigations into parking regulation reform and urban development policy
