Abstract
Apartment house is given a sizable portion in housing stock in Japan. Improvement of energetic consideration in apartment house can be as a part of principal energy strategy for residential sector as well as existing maintenance and management.In this study, the electric and gas consumption of dwelling unit is derived from the factors of time lag of behaviors based on survey on human activity patterns. In addition, electric consumption of elevator and pump is simulated based on aforementioned time trajectory of usage pattern. Consumption of lighting in common space is also estimated by the field measurement campaigns. The total energy consumption of standard type is this study is estimated 8127GJ/year. Electric consumption is positioned 68% of total energy consumption. Electric consumption in common space is estimated 1054GJ/year, positioned 21% of total building consumption.
