Mar 19, 2012 at 13:38 comment added Misha Jef is right. There are nice books on buildings, Ronan's "Buildings" is my favorite. If you want to see a quick introduction, then you can read Brown's "What is a building?", Notices Amer. Math. Soc. 49 (2002), no. 10, 1244-1245, or, for more details, his "Five lectures on buildings." Group theory from a geometrical viewpoint (Trieste, 1990), 254–295, World Sci. Publishing, River Edge, NJ, 1991.
Mar 19, 2012 at 8:44 comment added Jef I guess you mean "what ARE the appartments of X" ? I am not sure I know the abstract definition of what an appartment should be in an abstract building, but in this case, I think appartments are in bijection with maximal split tori, and the appartment associated to such a torus T consists of all parabolic subgroups that contain T.
