Synopsis
"Sustainable Housing Project" aims for the establishment of sustainable Housing, which is long-lived, easy to recycle or reuse, and efficient energy use. In this report, we introduce some of activities of Kajima group and Takenaka group. In Kajima group, monitoring system for RC support which uses optical fiber, and performance evaluation method of recycle building materials are developed. Furthermore, recycle-building materials are studied to apply building construction. In Takenaka group, CFH (Concrete Filled H section) structure, pile reuse technologies, long-lived concrete technologies, carbonation after repairing, and aggregate recycling technologies are developed.
