    JPCI Newsletter No.13 March 2021 JPCI NEWSLETTER No.13, March 2021 Japan Prestressed Concrete Institute JPCI AWARD Award for Outstanding Structures ● Washimi Bridge Location：Gujo City, Gifu Prefecture. Structure overview：The Washimi Bridge (Phase II) is a 490.0m long bridge on the Tokai-Hokuriku expressway. It was designed to run adjacent to the current Phase I bridge spanning a deep valley, using a four-span continuous rigid frame prestressed reinforced concrete (PRC) box girder design with corrugated steel webs on three tall piers, the tallest of which is 125 m high and the best height in Japan. Because the bridge is in a heavy snowfall region with severe weather conditions during construction, the rapid construction method was adopted in order to utilize precast elements during construction of the bridge piers. To speed up the construction of the superstructure, the rapid construction of corrugated steel webs method was used. This method boosts construction efficiency by installing the form traveler on the corrugated steel panels and enabling construction to progress on several blocks simultaneously. Provider：Central Nippon Expressway Co., Ltd Design：Japan Bridge & Structure Institute, Inc Sumitomo Mitsui Construction Co., Ltd Construction：Sumitomo Mitsui Construction Co., Ltd ● The Second Komono Viaduct on the Shin-Meishin Expressway Location：Komono-cho , Mie Outline of Structure：The Second Komono Viaduct is a 19-span, 1,103-meter-long viaduct comprised of a 3-span prestressed reinforced concrete continuous extradosed bridge, sandwiched by two continuous box-girder bridges with 5 spans and 11 spans. Concerning the design, an attractive appearance of the sub- and super-structure was importantin determining the form.

It is my great pleasure to have this opportunity to talk on “Dams in Japan” at this opening ceremony of 24th ICOLD Kyoto Congress1. 24th ICOLD Congress 2 to 8 June 2012 ～ Kyoto, Japan 【JWA】 Norihisa Matsumoto Japan Commission on Large Dams 1 2. This diagram shows the increase in the number of dams which are higher than 15 m. Before 1900, we had about seven hundred irrigation dams. We started our modern dam construction in the end of the 19th century. The first masonry concrete gravity dam was completed in the year 1900. In those early days, the irrigation dams dominated in numbers, and hydropower and multipurpose dams increased later on2.
