On the basis of the yearbooks of the Japan Construction Safety and Health Association, wind-induced structural accidents during construction were investigated on the death and serious accidents where more than 3 people were killed or injured. These data were compared with data of overseas wind-induced accidents collected from Engineering News-Record. The wind-induced structural accidents were classified according to the accident types, and their countermeasures for safety were examined.
From the investigation, it was found both in Japan and overseas that the collapse accidents during construction have the high rate in the whole construction accidents and about 10% of the serious collapse accidents were due to wind. Furthermore, it was also found that in Japan the ratio of the collapse accidents due to wind had not been changed since 1970, and the countermeasures for the prevention of the collapse accidents were proposed.
