STUDY ON TT-IF, ADAPTABILITY ANDTLAYOUT CHANGES MADE TO KEP HOUSTNG

本研究探讨一个屋苑的公寓单位，其中大部分都配备了活动隔板和活动存储单元，自20多年前建成以来，居民如何改造它们。本研究的目的是验证居民是否采用了KEP的设计理念，以满足他们的个人需求，以及他们如何适应他们的生活方式的变化，随着时间的推移，他们的生活环境。自1982年第一批居民开始住在公寓楼以来，居民的家庭结构发生了变化。因此，他们需要改造房间，改变隔断的位置，设备的规格等。调查人员研究了居民使用的移动隔断系统，因为它是最初计划的。调查员逐一走访了所有住宅，当我们被允许进入一个单元时，我们观察了对它进行的实际变化，并询问居民为什么， 关于我们 他们是如何改变单位的本研究报告的研究结果，特别是在房间布置的变化（布局的变化）。调查员研究了入住后的变化，住房单位，有一个KEP可移动的分区系统。随着孩子的成长，当他们离开家，许多家庭使用KEP分区系统来调整房间安排，以适应他们生活方式的变化。KEP系统似乎已经按照20多年前的计划工作了。一些居民表示，活动隔断系统的一些机械部件已经生锈，不能正常工作，他们无法自行移动和/或重新安装。也有居民认为活动隔断的隔音性能不够好，原因是隔断之间有接缝。他们认为，为了10年才可能使用一次的活动隔板而牺牲隔板的隔音性能是不值得的。居民的经验和意见为我们提供了进一步研究的重要课题。少

This research examines how the apartment units of a housing estate, most of which were equipped with movable partitions and movable storage units, have been transformed by the residents since they were built more than 20 years ago. The purpose of this research is to verify whether residents have adopted the design concepts of KEP to suit their individual needs and how they have adapted their living environments to changes in their lifestyles over time. Residents' family structures have changed since the first ones started to live in the apartment house in 1982. Therefore, they have needed to remodel rooms, change the position of partitions, the specifications of equipment, and so on. The investigator studied the movable partitioning system that had been used by residents as it was planned originally. The investigator visited all the residences individually, and when we were allowed to enter a unit, we observed the actual changes that had been made to it and asked the residents why and … More how they changed their units. This study reports on the results of the studies, especially on the changes in room arrangement (layout changes).The investigator studied the post occupancy changes in housing units which had a KEP movable partitioning system. As children grew, and when they left home, many families used the KEP partitioning system to adjust the room arrangements to fit the changes in their lifestyles. The KEP system appears to have worked the way it was planned to more than twenty years ago. Some of the residents told that some of the mechanical parts of the movable partitioning system had become rusted and did not work well enough for them to move and/or reinstall by themselves. There were also residents who thought the sound insulation performance of the movable partitions was not good enough because of the joints between the partitions. They did not think it would be worthwhile to sacrifice the sound insulation performance of the partitions for the sake of movable partitions that would likely be used only once in 10 years. The residents' experiences and comments suggest important topics for us to research further. Less
