With the approach of Typhoon No. 19, the Chofu City Hall in Tokyo, where the government building is currently being renovated, has taken measures to prevent workers from the construction company from falling down due to wind.
Chofu City Hall has been conducting seismic isolation repair work for the government building since September of last year, but since the approach of Typhoon No. 19 is expected on the weekend, we have increased the number of workers by 10 more than usual on the 10th. It was.
Workers bundled the sheets that covered the scaffolds that were susceptible to the wind to prevent the scaffolds from collapsing due to strong winds, and attached them to the columns.
Moreover, in order to prevent materials and equipment from being blown by the wind, it was fixed to the ground with a net.
Last month's Typhoon No. 15 had a series of damage that caused the construction site scaffolding to collapse in strong winds in Tokyo and Yokohama, so this site is more thorough than ever before.
Mr. Shinji Takaura, the site manager, said, “This typhoon seems to be larger than before, so I want to be prepared to prevent accidents from happening more seriously.
