    This research examines the possibility of institutionalization of the community garden in Japan with reference to the example of City of New York. In City of New York, management of CG has 35 years of accumulation, and the structure of support is established. While the method of the land use of community garden has only public space in Japan, City of New York has many which have an individual division. In this research, the contents of the concrete support in a difference and City of New York of the method of such land use and the management actual condition of community garden were clarified.

    New Orleans was attacked by Hurricane Katrina (2005), and the city began to develop The Unified New Orleans Plan (UNOP) as a recovery plan. One of the characteristics of UNOP is that three recovery scenarios were made based on the population growth and hazard risk. This paper aims to understand the recovery plan-making processes and to define the characteristics of the applied planning methods. The authors focus on both “Citywide Plan” and “District Plan”, especially on hazard scenario. This study is a first step to study land-use planning methods that include the element of pre-recovery plan.

    This paper, based on questionnaire and interview survey, clarifies how super high-rise condominiums in the Tokyo Metropolitan Area dealt with the Great East Japan Earthquake on 11 March 2011. Most super high-rise condominiums suffered elevator failures, and the residents crowded on the first floor soon after the eartquake. During the elavator downtime, some common facilities such as meeting rooms, lobbies and party rooms worked as places for temporary and overnight refuges. Such uses were necessarily not preliminarily expected.

    In recent years, design process has become more complicated due to increase in factors to consider. Thus, a need for design process facilitation is apparent in architectural design. We first specify the design process of a basic office building by using DSM, an analytical method. We then analyze reworks occurred in design process in detail by conducting 4 case studies. Finally, we find the potential rework rate for each case, which was 28.4%–38.1% in general office buildings. Meanwhile, the rate was only 17.9% for the environmental office building.

    The maintenance records often fail to utilize for any maintenance plans, because the maintenances staffs hardly release and analyze the data. The purpose of this study, from the view point of practical value, is to give fundamental information about the failures and troubles of building elements, which contributes to rationalization of the maintenance plan. In this study, 5 hospitals were researched and the total 43281 pieces of information were collected. The failures and troubles about building elements account 10 to 20 percent of total number (6144 pieces). Its data finds a higher incidence of early failure and troubles. The most building element occurring failures and troubles is doors of all.

    Buraku-ji Yakushi-do, located in Otoyo-cho in Kochi Prefecture, was designated as a national treasure in 1904. In 1938, roofing work was completed, and the date of construction was accepted to be 1151. In this report, Zouzou-meiki, a record describing the origin of the building, was investigated; however, the date of construction could not be directly confirmed. A list of drawings from the Meiji era confirmed the existence of the tie beam and the strut built on it, as well as the narrow plane behind the naijin, a building type prevalent in the latter Kamakura period. Thus, the date of construction is considered to be no earlier than the middle of the 12th century and no later than the end of the 13th century.

    This report shows directionality of countermeasure for snow and ice in mountain huts through the research of Karasawa Hyutte. There are three buildings to stay where temporary structures called Fuyugakoi are installed in winter. By investigating three lodgings, Fuyugakoi and design drawings, the present position and technical transition were cleared and summarized in a chronological table. As a conclusion of this study, the countermeasure for snow and ice in Karasawa Hyutte changed from withstanding the external force to preventing it.

    Drawings and documents were found mainly on Kishida’s prewar works through the sorting out and analyzing of related documents stored at Kanazawa Institute of Technology and Tokyo Metropolitan Archives. In total, 119 drawings on 34 works were found, and of them, 24 works are not listed in the chronology of “Kishida Hideto”. The completion date of the auditorium and library in Kure City tells us that the buildings can be categorized as a work from Kishida’s earliest days as a designer, when he worked as an official of the repairs department of the Tokyo Imperial University. It has also been revealed that he designed buildings other than campus when he worked for the university’s department. Kishida worked on a wide range of buildings after he become a professor in the prewar era. It is shown that his designing of mountain huts ranged widely across the country through the national park association.

    This paper aims to report the trend of changes of the finishing materials used for floor, walls, ceiling, and the parts around the sink and oven in the home kitchen analyzing the descriptions in the authorized textbooks on domestic science from Meiji to early Showa era. The expressions about the finishing materials started to describe from 1909, and increase after mid-Taisho era. After that, especially after 1928, the new materials – tiles, artificial stone, and concrete – were described frequently. In general, those expressions of materials in the textbooks meant the development of the concept of hygiene to the specific morphology.

First, University of Tsukuba and design documents of its building are introduced. Next, the process of making BIM model and the data are explained. Finally, studying the record of BIM model in comparison with paper media is shown. Some results show as follows: (1) In BIM model, we can treat building and air-conditioning/plumbing simultaneously, which were edited separately in paper media. (2) To make BIM model precisely, we need to prepare lots of classes from the original.

    For comprehensive understanding of a two-by-four construction system, sufficient textbooks or manuals have not been published in Japan. In such a situation, a 3D-model-based representation will serve as a good reference to understand this system.
    We attempt to represent a two-by-four housing system by creating a detailed 3D model generated from predefined classes. These classes can dynamically produce the shapes of each element by setting parameters.
    Furthermore, we confirmed that the representation is valid and useful by outputting a scale model using a 3D printer.

The followings are shown by comparing three lecture types classified in last report: firstly lectures of building production and construction management are not clearly differentiated in present curricula although the preference of educational issues is different mutually. And in case of offering both lectures, it is possible to open a lecture of building production as a primary subjects in an early period of undergraduate school.
