Abstract

After the year 2018, an earthquake-resistant diagnosis will be imposed for old and large scaled buildings that are used for unspecified many people, and the result of diagnosis will be announced publicly. The rule of the law is that while a certain building is realized to be dangerous, this building is still completely legitimate. When a building is collapsed accidentally, this rule causes the dispute between the victims of an accident and building owners, because the victims say that this building is dangerous while the owners say this building is completely legitimate. In order not to cause unnecessary disputes, the law should be changed to make clear the ownerʼs responsibility to repair the dangerous building.
