As a result, the most structure of building was wooden buildings and amounted to 59 percent.95 percent of the wooden building was damaged over partially destroyed. It was especially cleared to become higher the rate of flooded buildings in the southern coastal than the northern coastal of Iwate.Furthermore, we classified stricken areas of five types in the square scale of several hundred meters.
