Abstract

In recent years, flood damage has been extensive, and therefore building codes in Japan are being strengthened. In view of this, we propose a novel full-scale flooding test system for the purpose of better understanding flood damage and developing flood-proofing technology for wooden houses. It utilizes a simple large-scale excavation water tank built with sheet piles, with temporary equipment to create rising water and rushing water conditions. A full-scale test system was built and tested for two flood levels. The construction process and measurement and camera recording methods are described. The effectiveness of the test system is demonstrated.
