A construction method that allows for flexible expansion of existing roofs. Achieving an all-weather loading area!
We would like to introduce a case where First Plus Co., Ltd. adopted the "Big Roof Method." A customer wished to extend an existing 10m canopy by an additional 7m and to enclose the entire loading area indoors to allow for work without getting wet in the rain. In response, we developed a structural plan that combined the Big Loop Method with the Cover Build Method, constructing a new frame that covers both the expanded area and the existing loading canopy area. We achieved an all-weather loading area that is fully integrated with the existing building's appearance while expanding the work area and maintaining operations during construction. [Challenges] ■ Extend the existing 10m canopy by an additional 7m ■ Enclose the entire loading area indoors to allow for work without getting wet in the rain *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.
