  • Elements of the Ubranscape in Tokyo

    Elements of the Ubranscape in Tokyo

    Teka Kom. Arch. Urb. Stud. Krajobr. – OL PAN, 2012, VIII/1, 75-92 ELEMENTS OF THE UBRANSCAPE IN TOKYO Ewa Maria Kido CTI Engineering Co., Ltd. Consulting Engineers, 2-15-1 Nihonbashi Ningyocho, Chuo-ku, Tokyo, Japan e-mail: [email protected] Abstract. Tokyo Metropolis (Tōkyō-to) of 13 mln people, crowded, colored, noisy, made of very freely designed buildings, with railway loop line separating the inner center from the outer center – from one side is similar to other large metropolises in Japan, and from another – being a capitol and having the Imperial Palace as its symbolical center, is unique. This article discusses elements of urbanscape, such as transportation infrastructure – roads and railways; junctions and city centers – neighborhoods; urban interiors – streets and squares; border lines and belts – rivers, parks; do- minant urban structures, outstanding elements – landmarks, and characteristic sights, that contrib- ute to aesthetic appeal of the landscape of Tokyo. The conclusion is that although both European cities and Tokyo have well-functioning centers, as well as sub-centers of the polycentric metropo- lises, their forms are differing because they reflect local urban planning, aesthetics, and culture. Key words: urbanscape, urban planning, Tokyo, elements of urbanscape, urban landscape INTRODUCTION Urban landscape is a combination of a city’s form and contents that includes natural and built environment. As an outcome of urban and landscape design, it involves arrangement and functioning of cities, with particular focus on architec- ture, infrastructure and green zones. Design of urban space has become increas- ingly important for the long-term development and well-being of urban commu- nities, and can provide cities with a unique identity.

    Examples of Bridge Damage on Metropolitan Expressway Discovered by Emergency Structural Inspections After the Tohoku Earthquake

    EXAMPLES OF BRIDGE DAMAGE ON METROPOLITAN EXPRESSWAY DISCOVERED BY EMERGENCY STRUCTURAL INSPECTIONS AFTER THE TOHOKU EARTHQUAKE Tsuyoshi KOSUGI 1 Takehiko HATSUKU 2 Masaru SHIMONISHI 3 Abstract The Tohoku Earthquake on March 11, 2011 (Heisei 23) was observed to be seismic intensity 5 Upper by the JMA intensity scale even in the Tokyo Metropolitan area, which is more than 300 km from the epicenter. Even the Metropolitan Expressway took heavy damage centered on the coastal regions where the shaking was strong. In this article, we introduce the results of the emergency inspections of the Metropolitan Expressway conducted after the earthquake and examples of the damage discovered. From the bridge pier inspections targeting bearings and earthquake-resistance reinforcements, it is clearly necessary to focus on damage around bearings when elevated bridges have major curvature or inclination such as in junctions, as well as when piers are steel structures. In addition, considerable surface difference in level was observed in areas where the piers were constructed on reclaimed land, and the reason is thought cavities that occurred by land subsidence before the earthquake become larger as a result of the earthquake. 1. Introduction The world's largest magnitude 9.0 earthquake, with an epicenter off the Sanriku coast in the Pacific Ocean, struck Japan on March 11, 2011. Not only was there damage from the tremors of this earthquake's seismic motion, but Japan witnessed the greatest disaster in her history due to the effects from the giant tsunami that hit the Pacific coast of the Tohoku region. This earthquake was observed to be seismic intensity 5 Upper even in the Tokyo Metropolitan area, which is more than 300 km from the epicenter (Figure 1-1).
