(Japanese) 政策研究大学院大学・建築研究所共催シンポジウム「歴史的建築物の活用と防火対策」
| In recent years, countermeasures against flood disasters of buildings have become important in Japan, by the increase of severe flood disasters. For example, in Typhoon 19 (Hagibis) in 2019 due to flooding of a super high-rise condominium’s power receiving and transforming facilities, its elevators and water supply facilities became unusable, and in July 2020 extensive flooding inundation of facilities for the elderly and urban areas caused extensive human and building damage. In this symposium, we will exchange information on domestic and international efforts and technological trends, and consider issues that need to be addressed in the future. | ||||
