1. Reasons for Amendment

A. When a power generation facility using wind power, which is a new energy, is installed, vibration due to wind may occur, so this amendment requires that structural safety and seismic design certificates and a wind-resistant design certificate be attached.

B. This amendment allows the relevant local building committee deliberation process to be omitted if one submits the documents confirming refuge areas when reporting the construction of a temporary building with three or more floors.

C. As the Building Act was revised, which obliges not only Metropolitan Cities or Dos and Si/Gun/Gus with a population of 500,000 or more but also Si/Gun/Gus with a population of less than 500,000 that fall within the top 30 percent of local governments nationwide in terms of the building permit area (referred to the average annual building permit area for the immediately preceding five years) or ratio of deteriorated buildings to install a regional building safety center (revised on June 10, 2022, and to be implemented on June 11, 2023), this amendment aims to clarify the requirements delegated to sub-statutes.

D. It is stipulated that at least one certified architect and one professional architectural structural engineer (advanced engineer in the building construction field) should be assigned to the local construction safety center, but the number of professional architectural structural engineers (advanced engineers in the building construction field) is small, making it difficult for Si/Gun/Gus to secure essential experts. So, this amendment aims to diversify expertise by expanding the scope of essential experts, considering the status of engineers and differences in work expertise in each local government.

E. This amendment aims to resolve public inconvenience by simplifying the consent method of landowners, etc., when designating special building zones is proposed.
