Our goal of the research is to find the solutions for maintaining the structural
safety of a huge number of infrastructures in big cities by intelligent
and economical ways and extending the service life. The results of this
research make it possible to apply for the efficient infrastructure management
in Tokyo, where many infrastructures have been existed already for 30 to
40 years after the construction. Moreover, the maintenance measures which
will be carried out in Tokyo in future would be served as the good references
to big cities in other Asian countries achieving development as Japan did.
We take it our mission to work on ensuring safety and preventing disasters for the prosperity of the entire Asia by giving instructions with our research achievement.
Contribution to Solutions for Metropolitan Problems and Development in
Asia
Asian countries have been developing rapidly. They can adapt the advantages
and points to consider in the building and maintaining process of infrastructures
shown by the Tokyo’s experiences to constructing ideal metropolises.
Fostering Highly Skilled Human Resources in Asian Countries
For the economic growth and the comfortable living circumstances while
keeping the global environment in Asia, we aim at promoting engineers from
Asian countries by giving instructions about the methods for ensuring safety
of urban infrastructures in Tokyo.
The Advanced Study at the International level
Japan is the country that has the top-class maintenance technology in the
world, even compared with the Western countries as well as Asian countries.
Our research on the methods for ensuring safety of aging urban infrastructures
and achieving the long term durability and sustainability is a pioneering.
Therefore that would be the valuable experiences to all Asian countries
in the process of the economic growth.
