"Introduction of Disaster Prevention Helicopter Port" Sendai Joint Government Building
Introducing a case study of a rooftop aluminum deck helipad that combines safety and design.
We would like to introduce a case of the construction of a "disaster prevention heliport" at the Sendai Joint Government Building. In October 2015, a heliport was established on the rooftop as part of the new construction of the building. The heliport is capable of accommodating large aircraft for takeoff and landing and was established as a non-public heliport for the transportation of important individuals by helicopter, serving as a command facility for the Tohoku region. A lightweight and maintenance-free aluminum deck heliport was adopted.

Company information
Contributing to the safety of the skies The beginning of Aero Facility dates back to the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake (January 17, 1995). The damage caused by the earthquake, which recorded a magnitude of 7, was immense, and many may remember the broadcast footage from news helicopters. The founder, who inspected the Kobe heliport at that time, witnessed the apron turned into a quagmire due to liquefaction, buildings warped and unable to open their shutters, and helicopters that, while intact, could not be taken out of the hangar. From the founder's belief that there should be no heliport that cannot be used during a disaster, Aero Facility was established with the aim of "contributing to the safety of the skies and protecting the peace and safety of society." Aero Facility primarily focuses on heliport construction and aircraft sales. The 30 U.S.-made helicopters supplied to the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force are currently active as training aircraft for pilots involved in air defense. The number of aluminum deck heliports constructed, designed with safety as the top priority, boasts the highest record in the country with over 100 locations nationwide. Aero Facility will continue to contribute to the safety of the skies with professional proposals.
