Employment Continuing Support Facility “Offer” Shin-Omiya

This project is for a continuing employment support facility, that is a few minutes’ walk from Shin-Omiya station in Nara. Contrary to the current surrounding building conditions, the area is regulated by the commercial zone and fire prevention zone. While the wooden fire prevention structure is difficult to meet the client’s plan, K-shape frame structure is adopted instead. K-shape frame structure consists of an endurance wall with 100 pillars and H steel beam. It is easier to plan fire prevention structures and to make the interior more spacious because big columns are not required.
