[Construction Example] Expanding the existing eaves to create an indoor space that is protected from rain.
Construction method that does not stop factory operations - First Plus Co., Ltd. 'Big Roof Method'
The "Big Roof Construction Method" is a technique for safely extending roofs, such as eaves that protrude from buildings. In this case, the customer wished to extend an existing 10-meter eave by an additional 7 meters while also enclosing the entire loading area indoors to allow for work to be done without getting wet from the rain. Therefore, we developed a structural plan that incorporated the "Cover Build Method," constructing a new frame that covers both the extension area and the existing loading eave area. This allowed us to expand the loading area while maintaining operations during construction and enclosing it indoors. Considering the entry and exit of trucks, we adopted aluminum over-slider shutters for the opening doors. The existing eave was integrated into the new roof, resulting in a spacious indoor loading area with sufficient strength. 【Construction Requirements】 ■ There is ample space in front of the building. ■ The existing building has passed inspection. *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.
