Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study clarifies challenges in the construction and management of welfare temporary housing erected for the elderly and handicapped people after the Great East Japan earthquake. Further, based on the perspective of construction plans, this study also suggests how temporary housing should be managed during disasters and emergencies.
In the current fiscal year, we prepared a report titled “Setup and Planning Guide for ‘Welfare Temporary Housing’ during Times of Disaster and Collection of Data” that included photographs of examples based on the results of three years of research. This report was mailed to relevant departments of prefectures that are likely to become main entities of temporary housing construction in the case of disasters. Moreover, this report was offered online to be widely distributed and utilized.
