Description

Many public housing complexes in regions of Hokkaido with heavy snow have attached roofed walkways called "Gangi" that provide walking spaces in winter. However, drifting snow, which frequently occurs in Hokkaido due to low temperatures, often accumulates in the walkways and causes problems for daily use and snow removal. In this study, the authors examined snow control measures for Gangi. In the first of part of the paper, results of a field survey of public housing complexes in Hokkaido are presented. Results of wind tunnel tests using model buildings and model snow are presented in the latter half of the paper.
