Abstract
By Typhoon 9119 passed through Chugoku district, the houses of Noh-butai, Noh-gakuya and Gakuboh of Itsukushima shrine were blown down, and the houses of Misen-hondoh and Nioh-mon gate were seriously damaged. Through the survey of the damage, it was clarified that the strong blast from Mt. Misen flew down along Daishoh-in route for climbing Mt. Misen and caused the damage to the houses of Itsukushima shrine. The collapse of Noh-butai house was caused by the failure of the connections of the columns with the upper and lower girders. The collapse wind speed was deduced as about 55 to 60 (m/s).
