Surveys to Identify Problems in the Green Remodeling Process of Public Buildings

Purpose: The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport has been conducting a green remodeling project for public buildings since 2020. The purpose of this study is to identify problems such as time delays, design changes, and budget that occur in the green remodeling business plan and design process, and to review improvement plans. Method: A survey was conducted targeting officials, architects, and consulting firms involved in the green remodeling process to identify key issues that arose from the selection of target buildings to contracts, energy-saving design, and project execution. First, a questionnaire was prepared for public officials, architects, and consulting companies. The survey was conducted online, and the results were analyzed. Result: Although the accessibility to the project was high as they understood the information and purpose of the green remodeling project in advance, it turned out that the support related to green remodeling design during the project implementation was insufficient.
