There was a "legend" that
Daikiti TAKI was involved in the construction of the
Ryounkaku, which was founded in 1890. Regarding this "legend", I thought that
TAKI was concerned with the
Ryounkaku with respect to the design of research and repair for the
Ryounkaku after the
Meiji Tokyo earthquake that occurred on June 20, 1894, not against the beginning. By the way, "
Ryounkaku-heimenzu" -the plan of the
Ryounkaku- was posted in the first volume “
Wayo-kairyo Dai-kentikugaku” published by
Siro MITUHASI in February 1904, in this book, when the
Ryounkaku encountered the earthquake and was damaged, it was stated that
MITUHASI was also in charge of repairing, there is a question of how to interpret this point.
Considering the contents of “
Wayo-kairyo Dai-kentikugaku”, since this is different from repair against the
Meiji-Tokyo Earthquake of June, 1894 by
TAKI, the repair described in “
Wayo-kairyo Dai-kentikugaku” can be judged as repair for earthquake damage other than the
Meiji-Tokyo earthquake.
According to the newspaper report, the
Ryounkaku was damaged by the later earthquake that occurred on January 18, 1895, this tower suffered the cracking disaster. However, during this period,
TAKI was dispatched to Korea and it was absent, so it can be thought that investigation and repair was entrusted to
MITUHASI who was the subordinate of
TAKI at the Army Ministry. After the earthquake in January 1895, the repair of the
Ryounkaku, based on the first volume of “
Wayo-kairyo Dai-kentikugaku”, placed the steel band behind the wall, set up the wooden pillar slightly away from the wall.
