Structural
In the area of structural seismic resistance, we will learn about the design, construction, and maintenance of various structures supporting social infrastructure, such as bridges. With the aim of creating structures resistant to earthquakes and other disasters and ensuring durability, our extensive research uses advanced numerical analysis, precise experiments and measurement technology. Through study and research in this area, we can acquire knowledge and skills to apply in designing for seismic resistance and maintenance engineering.
