Digital Archive: The Impact of Shear Failure on the Architecture World
The Tokachi-Oki Earthquake of 1968 was an extremely significant event for architectural structural engineering.
The Tokachi-Oki Earthquake of 1968 caused extensive damage to school buildings made of reinforced concrete, which were referred to at the time as "main buildings," and had a significant impact on architectural structural engineering. This is an introduction to a digital archive that summarizes the damage investigation and research into the causes. This research revealed the risk of shear failure in short columns made of reinforced concrete, and its findings were incorporated into building codes and calculation standards of the Architectural Institute of Japan, greatly contributing to seismic structural design methods.
