Title:
METHOD OF ASSESSING STRUCTURAL SAFETY OF THREE-STORIED BUILDING AND SUPPORT SYSTEM FOR CREATING CERTIFICATE OF STRUCTURAL SAFETY THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2004003205
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide a computer system for supporting people so that they can easily create structural drawings and specifications the same way as with a two-by-four construction method for two-storied buildings, without requiring expertise in the construction method qualified as conforming to building codes in terms of form.

Items for certifying the structural safety of a three-storied building are separated into general structural safety items for assessing safety as to seismic forces and wind pressures through the calculation of the amount of walls based on design criteria of a two-storied building provided by wood frame construction; and special structural safety items which deviate from the design criteria for the wood frame construction and which are unique to the above-mentioned specific construction method using anchor bolts, wall connectors, foundations, etc. For the general structural safety items, data on the number of walls is calculated by making calculations based on the confirmation of the amount of walls of the two-storied building provided by the wood frame construction. For the special structural safety items, special design criteria unique to the specific construction method to ensure structural safety are prepared. The structural safety of the three-storied building is assessed based on the general and special structural safety items.
