Factory reconstruction method "Cover Build Method" allows for rebuilding while maintaining factory operations!
Are you having trouble with a machine that cannot be moved? Yoshizawa's unique construction method allows you to maintain factory operations while replacing it.
The "Cover Build Method" is Yoshizawa's unique construction technique that allows for rebuilding while maintaining factory operations. We conduct thorough hearings regarding the main equipment of the factory and its usage frequency, and we manage the schedule appropriately to ensure that the construction process and factory operations can coexist. First, we assemble steel frames to cover the existing building and construct the roof and exterior walls. Once we ensure that rain and wind cannot enter from the outside, we dismantle the interior of the existing building and proceed with the rebuilding. [Recommended for such factories!] ■ There are machines that cannot be moved ■ There is space around the building ■ The existing building is a single-story structure ■ It is easy to switch production flow *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

basic information
【Construction Case Study】 An existing building over 60 years old, suffering from aging and insufficient strength. To meet the president's request to "consolidate the scattered offices on the premises into one location for smoother communication among employees," we designed the first floor to be used as a factory and the second floor as a single-floor office. First, we constructed a steel frame over the existing building and covered it with a roof to protect it from wind and rain, then proceeded to dismantle the existing building's roof, columns, and beams. We advanced the construction to ensure that the cranes and machinery necessary for the production line could continue to operate as usual, transforming it into a factory that met the required seismic strength. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

Company information
Yoshizawa Architectural Structural Design Co., Ltd. is a comprehensive design office that consistently handles everything from planning and design to construction and after-service for factory rebuilding and renewal in-house. There are various reasons for wanting to renew an aging factory or introduce new equipment, but the current situation is fraught with challenges, such as the inability to stop production, the costs associated with relocating to a temporary factory, and the resulting decrease in productivity. Our company employs methods like "Cover Build," which involves constructing a steel frame over the existing factory while keeping production equipment in place, and "Separate," which divides the construction period into phases (e.g., Phase 1 and Phase 2) to avoid a decline in operational rates during rebuilding. Additionally, to assess the potential damage buildings may incur during an earthquake, we conduct various seismic surveys, including crack investigations, concrete strength assessments, and rebar layout measurements. Based on the survey results, we propose seismic reinforcement plans. We focus on preserving the assets of companies, including buildings, machinery, materials, and products. Furthermore, we ensure the prompt recovery and continuity of operations. Supporting everything from seismic diagnosis to reinforcement comprehensively is what we, "Yoshizawa," are dedicated to.
