The IIS(Internal Insulation System) is typically applied in most Korean apartment buildings. Consequently, there exist many thermal bridges at the wall-slab and wall-wall joints in tile envelope. It is expected that the EIFS(External Insulation and Finish System) is tile solution to this problem. The aim of this study is to suggest external insulation design schemes suitable for Korean apartment buildings in order to facilitate the application of EIFS. After making 37 alternatives for 12 parts, each alternative's relative insulation performance and constructability were then evaluated. As results, 12 design schemes for 12 parts were suggested.
