Experiment of technology to reduce the shaking of tall buildings during an earthquake
In the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake, even in Tokyo and Osaka, which are far from where the earthquake occurred, there were many places where tall buildings shook violently and their ceilings and walls were broken.
建物を作る会社は、ビルの揺れ方を少なくする技術の開発をしています
Building companies are developing technology to reduce the way buildings shake.
The newest technology is to put a machine on the top of the building, which used to be installed on the bottom of the building to reduce the shaking.
15日、新しい技術の実験をしました
On the 15th, we experimented with new technology.
This experiment was conducted using a model of a building with the same shaking as an earthquake.
As a result, it was found that buildings built with new technology had 30% less shaking on high floors than buildings built with conventional technology.
この技術は、2025年2月に東京都港区にできる43階建てのとても高いビルに使う予定です
The technology will be used in a 43-story building that will be completed in February 2025 in Minato Ward, Tokyo.
