Course content
This course provides an overview of the latest building structure technologies in Japan and around the world as listed below. As a result, students will improve their knowledge and problem-solving skills for research and development of latest technologies as engineers after graduation.
1) High-rise RC buildings (high-strength concrete structures, precast structural systems)
2) High-rise CFT buildings
3) The latest earthquake-resistant reinforcement technology with butterfly-shaped blocks
4) Fire-resistant wooden structures
5) Latest fiber reinforced concrete structures
6) Other latest building structure technologies
Purpose of class
