In recent years, the indoor keeping rate of home animals, such as dog and cat, is risen, and the companion animal is asked for the meekness of character by the reduction and turned higher and more concentrated of a living floor space in urban areas. For this reason, although breeding of a dog and education of the learning technique are made from the veterinarian ethology field, there are also many situations where the environmental agent which stimulates the consciousness mainly concerned with sound serves as mental load of an animal, and has obstructed that technique employment. In investigation of the emergency makeshift house performed campany moving of the companion animal in the Great East Japan Earthquake in, it was also checked that this environmental agent serves as a big burden on the breeding home and the neighborhood. Then, classification, analysis, a noise experiment, etc. based on the senses characteristic which were based for the influence factor and influence domain about the peopleand the pet of pet symbiosis living environment were conducted.

To verify the fire resistance performance, testing in accordance with ISO834 is being carried out. The purpose of study is to obtain the useful knowledge regarding heat characteristic of drywall using plasterboard. Consequently, @as heating time is longer, and as fire temperature-rise coefficient is bigger, the width of joint is wider, @in case of α=350, temperature curve is similar in spite of measurement position of temperature, so except forα=350, temperature curve is similar up to 400°C.

In order to understand the effect of sealed joint with regard to temperature distribution properties of Drywall, I ficused the boundary surface temperature of the heating surface board, air layer, the non-heated surface board. The result of this time, at about 300°C that Heat shrinkage of gypsum board increases ,Temperature gradient of gypsum board varied. Boundary surface temperature of the air layer was changed to Parabola. And Boundary surface temperature of the the non-heated surface board was changed to Straight line. By using the theory of one-dimensional steady state heat conduction, apparent thermal conductivity of air layer calculated. As a result, apparent thermal conductivity was about five as large as Literature values.

As a building finishing pattern(B.F.P.), we use so many 2-colour painting pattern(2-C.P.P.), such as check, lattice, stripe and dots pattern. But when we analize 2-C.P.P., we must aware two different situations, one is figures on the free plane, another on the flamed plane like a B.F.P.. Normaly we analize 2-C.P.P. on the free plane using dual structure of graph theory. In case of 2-C.P.P. on flamed plane, we must additionaly consider dual structure of 3-C.P.P.. This report discussed the dual structure's condition which lead to 2-C.P.P. both on the free plane and on flamed plane, using linear graph, plane graph, and cubic graph.

Reinfoced concrete structures have been constructed so much by rapid economic growth in 1960's.These structures have been deteriorating with time at present, and it is demanded at society that structures can run a long term. So the repair and retrofitting should be necessary to keep the use of existing structures, therefore condition assessment of existing reinforced concrete structures is quite important.The carbonation is one of the factor of deterioration of structures. Finishing materials affect the carbonation of concrete structures. However the opportunity of survey for actual buildings are not sufficient.Then this study reports on the condition assessment of reinforced concrete structures which were built at 1960's, from the viewpoints of visual observation, cracks on the outer wall, concrete quality such as compressive strength and carbonation depth by using core samples extracted from the structure. Also air permeability test was performed with nondestructive test.

By about 16,940,000 people, the number of the less than 15-year-old children in the 2012 fiscal year decreases every year during 36 years. There are many homes where a double-income household increases now and a mother and a father participate in housekeeping or child-rearing. Therefore, the dwelling space which correspondence of the device which can perform housekeeping and child-rearing comfortably, a child's injury, the dirt of everyday life, etc. can reduce as much as possible is called for. From the result of "the questionnaire about the building materials of the residence for child-rearing" carried out as part of activity with the Architectural Institute of Japan Kanto branch material construction special committee uni-versal design building materials WG, Consideration of the result in building-materials selection is performed, and since the building materials for child-rearing residences needed from now on were examined, the part is reported. For example, what kind of indoor dirt being worrisome and the thing mentioned and worried were made to choose to three about each of sitting room, a kitchen, and a children's room. In sitting room, there was little difference between men and women of consciousness, and there was a tendency for peeling of wallpaper and floor dirt to be worrisome. In kitchen, the woman besides the dirt of a flooring material tended to have cared also about the dirt of wallpaper. Although the tendency for a male to worry the dirt of a crack and a flooring material was seen in the children's room, as for the woman, it was the feature that opinions, such as a wall, a floor, a crack, etc. which the surface of a wall became dirty, are divided. The tendency about which the crack which the child gave as a whole as well as dirt cares was seen.

The thickness of fluid-applied polyurethane membrane is mainly affected by the viscosity and application tools. Then, the four levels of viscosity were prepared by changing the adding ratio of diluent from 0 to10%. Polyurethane membranes were applied on substrate by various trowels and paint rollers. After curing the membrane, thickness was measured at 50mm intervals for all areas of the membrane. Based on the experimental results, the proper combination of diluent ratio and application tool for making a good membrane of having sufficient thickness was proposed.

Surface-impregnation materials and coating agents would be effective in maintaining the authenticity of historical reinforced concrete buildings. This study investigates the effect of the surface-impregnation materials and coating agents in preventing the water vapor and gas ingress into concrete. The following results were obtained: (1) The surface-impregnation materials did not have the prevention of water vapor, however the type of silicate prevent the progress of carbonation by water sprinkling. (2) The surface-coating agents have a significant effect on the prevention of water vapor by pilling up in layers. (3) A good agreement was found between air permeability and carbonation progress at field research; It shows air permeability might be a good index to evaluate the decrease of preventive effect to deterioration of coating.

As the demand for highly durable and technically advanced buildings increase, the improvement of ALC panels used mainly for buildings has also become necessary. One method to bring about such improvement in the durability of ALC panels is densification. Therefore we have investigated the properties of high-density ALC panels and have reported the results herein. In part 1 of the experiment, we have set the density of the high-density ALC panels at 450-750 kg/m3 as it is the realm of density which can be produced by the current production method and examined the ALC's compressive strength, bending strength, tensile strength, shear strength, Young's modulus, change of length and insulation property in relation to the density.

In part 2, we have further gone on to investigate the bending strength design method and the heavyweight floor impact sound insulation of high-density ALC panels. We have set the density and maximum width of the ALC panels to be tested at 650 kg/m3 and 500 mm, respectively, so that the current method of construction of ALC panels may be utilized. As a result, it was found that the stress coefficients of 3.0 N/mm2 and 2.0 N/mm2 could be utilized for allowable temporary loading and sustained loading, respectively, and 2,500 N/mm2 could be utilized as the Young's modulus in determining the durability of high-density ALC panels. In addition, it became apparent that high-density ALC panels of 150 mm thickness improved the heavyweight floor impact sound insulation by 1.7 dB at a frequency of 63 Hz compared to normal ALC panels.
