This report is on the double-skin facade system of NCR building, which was the first to be installed in Japan in 1962. This report also includes the result of the environmental measurements of it in 2015, following over 50 years after initial construction. The original drawings showed that the facade system was exquisitely designed to integrate the performance of thermal control, fire prevention, rainwater drainage system and its maintenance. The result of the measurement showed that the thermal performance was high as at that time and the performance at the time of its original completion had been maintained even now.
