설문조사를 통한 법제도 및 정책측면의 효과적인 셉테드 적용 방안 연구

Abstract

While institutional improvements and policy-based projects for Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) are rapidly spreading in Korea, little is understood about CPTED by the public, and its application is also insufficient. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to summarize survey results regarding CPTED-related legal systems and policy analysis from experts and parties concerned (public officials and working-level staffs in design companies) to propose effective application of CPTED. The results are as follow. First, whereas many were aware of article 53-2 (Anti-Crime for Buildings) of building code, they lacked understanding about CPTED or crime prevention articles that were provided elsewhere codes. An inference to the reason was that CPTED has not been specified in most provisions, or that their contents were limited only to the extent of installing crime-prevention devices such as closed circuit televisions (CCTVs). Second, criteria for crime prevention as per the building code was mainly limited to the fields of landscape, communications, and facilities, and there were insufficient applications on the essential part of CPTED including space planning and designs. Reasons according to the analysis were derived as insufficient number of specified cases for CPTED application, lack of criteria for evaluating the status of application, and the nonexistence of incentives for the application of CPTED. Third, it was found that there was much need for deliberation and consultation for CPTED, but the level of satisfaction was low. Reasons were lack of standardized method and data (document, drawings, etc.) for deliberation and consultation, insufficient pool of CPTED experts and specialized CPTED committee, and more. To solve the above issues, a plan should be induced where CPTED is applied at the stages of ordering, designing, deliberation and approval in the urban architecture. First, in the ordering stage of building, public officials are to specify the application of CPTED. In the designing stage, working-level staffs from building owners should accurately record the concepts or elements of CPTED for each type of space they plan to build. Next, at the stages of deliberation and approval, experts and public officials are to confirm whether the concepts and elements have been correctly applied as per laws and regulations, issuing corrective orders for supplementation if necessary. Finally, according to the results it was found that, to boost and spread the application of CPTED, the scope of its application should be expanded, the CPTED application should become mandatory and not recommendable, and crime-ridden areas should be designated as crime-prevention districts (or areas).
