Research Abstract

This research was operated to propose an efficient structural reinforcement device, suitable for Japanese timber architecture. Multiple structural reinforcement devices are available on the market. But to assure structural performance at the same time being affordable, easy to install and aesthetically allowable, is very difficult. We have developed a device using timber lattice and transparent board, and have operated multiple structural experiments to prove the structural performance. We have also installed the device to an existing timber house to experiment the installation efficiency.
