This paper describes applicability of a dynamic analysis model for Nikko-zan Rin-noji temple Hondo, the traditional wooden structure, based on observed records during the 2011 off the Pacific coast of Tohoku earthquake and its aftershocks. The 3-D frame model is configured on the basis of element experiments and empirical equations on earthquake resisting parts. The first natural frequency and the first damping factor of the model show relatively good agreement with those of the observed records, adding the hysteresis damping factor to the viscous damping factor even in small deformation.
