Renovation work on train station platforms requires removing the protective covering of half-finished work and then putting it back again at the end of each day. However, the time allotted for renovation work in station buildings is limited. Reducing the time for removing and putting back coverings is therefore expected to help shorten the working time. We developed a light, high-strength covering plate consisting of resin-impregnated glass cloth, foam, and a thin steel plate. This paper discusses the results of construction experiments conducted on a model to study the work efficiency improvements by using the developed light covering plates.
