[Construction Example] Two factories adapted into one building in compliance with the Building Standards Act.
Method of construction that does not stop factory operations" - Sugiya Metal Industry Co., Ltd. "Connection Method
The "Connection Construction Method" is a technique for constructing (or expanding) a new building between two or more existing buildings that are located apart (in the vacant space of the site), aligning the floor levels to integrate them into one structure. In this case, the two factories being renovated were built under old building codes, so we first conducted an investigation and planning of the site, as well as a seismic diagnosis, to ensure compliance with current building codes. After implementing seismic reinforcement and compliance work, a new factory was established and integrated between the buildings. As a result, we were able to transform it into a new factory with a total length of 56 meters that meets seismic standards and the regulations of current building codes. 【Target for Construction】 ■ We want to make the most of the existing buildings. ■ We want to create connections between each building that stands independently on the site. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Company information
Yoshizawa Architectural Structural Design Co., Ltd. is a comprehensive design office that consistently handles everything from planning and design to construction and after-sales service for factory rebuilding and renewal in-house. There are various reasons for wanting to renew an aging factory or introduce new equipment, but the current situation is that production cannot be halted, and moving to a temporary factory incurs costs, leading to a decrease in productivity, among other challenges. Our company avoids a decline in operational rates associated with rebuilding by using methods such as "Cover Build," which involves constructing steel frames over the existing factory while keeping the production equipment in place, and "Separate," which divides the construction period into phases like Phase 1 and Phase 2. Additionally, to understand the potential damage a building may suffer during an earthquake, we conduct various seismic surveys, including crack investigations, concrete strength assessments, and rebar layout measurements. Based on the survey results, we propose seismic reinforcement plans. We support the preservation of a company's assets, including buildings, machinery, materials, and products. Furthermore, we ensure the prompt recovery and continuity of operations. Our goal at "Yoshizawa" is to provide total support from seismic diagnosis to reinforcement.
