The length of stay and the disease cohort of in-patients-age, sex, and ambulant status distribution and illness types etc. -are the significant factors in the planning of the hospital building. This paper is a report of the field studies on the length of stay and disease cohort of in-patients. Some of the results of the studies are as follows. (1) From the analysis of momentary length of stay the patient could be classified into two groups-long term patient (spinale lesion, silicosis pulmonary and grane fractures) and short term patients (other medical and surgical diseases). The increase of long term patients means the decrease turn-over rate of hospital beds. (2) I made investigations on age, sex, and ambulant status distribution of in-patients. The influence of those factors will be great on the planning of bed areas, day spaces and especially avcillaries (W.C.'S, wash basins and batling facilities. etc) in ward units. (3) At the orthopedics ward units I found more numbers of wheel-chairs in use than any othere. Therefor, Orthopedci ward units require more space for the effectine use of wheel-chairs.
