given much attention in Thailand since its probability of occurrence might be extremely low. However, in recent
year the extreme weather phenomenon caused by global warming is becoming serious even in Thailand, thefrequency and intensity of strong wind disasters caused by tropical storms, floods and landslide disasters are
increasing. In these disasters, impact loads often act on the structures. In addition to those, terrorist bombing
attacks are also currently very much concerned in Thailand. Therefore, in Thailand, there is increasing interestin how to design the structures subjected to impact and blast loads to secure safety. Thailand is also increasinglyinterested in securing structural design and safety against impact loads. Meanwhile, in Japan, the Subcommittee
on Impact and Explosion Problems has been established in the Structural Engineering Committee of the Japan
Society of Civil Engineers and has been developing activities for about 30 years. In this joint seminar, therefore,
the primary objective was to provide Thai people with our information and knowledge on impact and explosion
problems.
Table 1 shows the program of this JSCE-EIT joint seminar. This joint seminar was welcomed by the EIT
President, Dr. Thanes Veerasiri and started with opening remarks by Prof. Fujikake. The lectures presented
included “Multilayer bulletproof system from FRC and natural rubber sheet” by Prof. Piti Sukontasukkul, “Ultrahigh performance concrete under impact loading” by Prof. Kazunori Fujikake, “Rockfall protection structure”
by Prof. Hiroshi Masuya, “Impact loading tests for RC beams” by Prof. Norimitsu Kishi, “Impact loading
analysis” by Prof. Yoshimi Sonoda, and “Shear failure of RC beams under dynamic loading” by Dr. Amornthep
Somraj.
More than 50 people participated in the joint seminar. The good news was that we got a very affirmative response
from the participants in this joint seminar. The joint seminar was successfully finished. After the joint seminar,
we developed a deep and warm personal relationship with the participants at the banquet.

Introduction to Committee on Historical Studies in Civil Engineering
The Committee on Historical Studies in Civil Engineering was established as a standing
committee of the JSCE in 1973 in conjunction with the editing of The History ofJapanese Civil Engineering: 1941–1965. In June 1981, eight years after the committee
was established, it hosted the 1st Conference on Historical Studies in Civil Engineering
as an opportunity for presentations and discussions on historical research related to civilengineering. Since then, the Conference on Historical Studies in Civil Engineering has
been held as a regular event in June every year, and this year will be the 39th. Initially,
the Committee on Historical Studies in Civil Engineering was called the “Committee on Takahiro Abe
Historical Studies in Japanese Civil Engineering,” but in 1989, the name was revised toits present name, “Committee on Historical Studies in Civil Engineering,” and theresearch conference was also renamed from the “Conference on Historical Studies in(Secretary-General,
Committee on Historical
Studies in Civil
Engineering)

Japanese Civil Engineering” to the “Conference on Historical Studies in Civil Engineering.”
Looking at the main activities of the Committee on Historical Studies in Civil Engineering, which boasts about
a half-century of history, we see that the greatest concern, from the early stages of the 1970s and 1980s throughthe 1990s and 2000s, has been evaluating what is referred to as our modern civil engineering heritage. During
this period, diverse methods valuation were discussed while collaboration with the Agency for Cultural Affairs
and other government institutions took place, and the facilities that qualified for valuation expanded to include
a variety of civil engineering facilities, such as bridges, dams, canal locks, sand erosion control facilities, tunnels,
and railroad facilities. As an extension of these valuations, discussion regarding approaches and methods
concerning the preservation and utilization of civil heritage assets took place, and the results were compiled involumes that include Modern Japanese Civil Engineering Heritage Assets (edited by the JSCE Committee on
4Historical Studies in Civil Engineering, JSCE, 2001, 2006)
and Preservation of Historical Civil Engineering Structures(edited by the JSCE United Subcommittee for Historical
Structure Preservation Techniques, Kajima InstitutePublishing, 2010). These books are still used in the field for
actual work. In the 2010s, with the enactment of theLandscape Act (2004) and the Act Concerning theMaintenance and Improvement of Historic Scenery (2008),
the topic of “historical urban development” that uses urban
development of historical civil engineering facilities as aresource underwent an increase in activity.

The Shuto Expressway, a post-war civil engineering
facility

Now, as we approach the 2020s, let’s take a look at three activities of the Committee that are concerned with thenext 50 years.
For starters, the Committee is changing its name to the “Committee on the History of Civil Engineering.” Until
now, the Committee has been engaged in the establishment of historical research methods in the civil engineering
field, of accumulating and utilizing research results as historical facts, and developing an evaluation focal point
for civil engineering heritage assets along with evaluation data. Going forward, we will systematize historicalfacts and historical techniques accumulated, working toward broader dissemination of those facts and techniques
while continuing to play a key role as a component of cross-disciplinary partnerships, and as a result, we arechanging our committee name to the “Committee on the History of Civil Engineering” as a more comprehensive
description of these activities.

Next is our initiative for the historical and cultural valuations of post-war civil engineering facilities. Seventy
years have passed since the end of the Second World War, and we now face an era in which a vast number of thecivil engineering facilities constructed during the post-war period of high economic growth are being upgraded.
Those facilities are being removed without any evaluation of their historical and cultural value being carried out,
and the problem of renovations being carried out on facilities currently in service without any concern for their
historical and cultural value is becoming increasingly apparent. Accordingly, at the Committee on Historical
Studies in Civil Engineering, we formed the Subcommittee for Studies Concerning the Historical and Cultural
Value of Post-War Civil Engineering Facilities” in June 2014, which has proceeded by putting together a concise
history of the post-war period on a per-field basis, examining the evaluative focal points when making valuations,and, moreover, creating a list of facilities that need to be evaluated.

The final item to be addressed is our education and research promotion. Last year, the Committee published The
Illustrated Guide to Modern Japanese Civil Engineering History (edited by the JSCE Committee on Historical
Studies in Civil Engineering, Kajima Institute Publishing, 2018) aimed at young scholars in the field of civilengineering history, with the purpose of being used as a textbook for university lectures and so on. This bookuses plentiful illustrations, photographs, data, and timelines to present field-specific historical information, witha focus on big projects that aided the modernization of Japan. Furthermore, with the publication of this book, we

5have established the “Subcommittee for the Promotion of Education
and Research”, which is involved in further efforts to promote
education on the history of civil engineering and to expand the baseof research.
Decisions regarding what to be built and what to be preserved willaffect the lives of our future children and grandchildren, and the workof those of us alive today will eventually become a page in the history
books. The history of civil engineering is something that not only canfoster awareness of this fact among civil engineers, but can also be
considered a field of research that serves as a compass for the workof civil engineering. From now on, the mission of the Committee is
not only to study history, but to study within history, evaluating thepresent and gathering research data in order to predict the future.

The Difference in the Approach to the Design Codes
between Japan and the UK
I have been working for a UK engineering consultancy in the UK for more than 10 years and have experienceof working for a Japanese engineering consultancy in the field of bridge engineering. Whenever I work on
projects as a civil/structural engineer in the UK, I cannot help but realise that there is a significant difference
between Japan and the UK in their approach to using the design codes and standards.
Based on the author’s experience, Japanese engineers tend to design structures without any departures from thedesign codes and standards. Before coming to the UK, I was involved in a bridge design project which entails
non-standard details in Japan (Photo 1). During the design process, we had a number of discussions on thecompliance of the design to the standards with the client’s engineers and bridge fabricators.

As a designer, I

wanted to adopt a non-standard design to improve the appearance of the bridge. My proposal was carefully
reviewed by them in accordance with the Japanese design codes. I had received many comments typically
including the following statement many times: “This design does (or does not) comply with the guidance given

Photo 1 Nishisuimon Bridge, Edogawa-ku, Tokyo6

below the clause X of Specifications for Highway bridges Part II by the Japan Road Association.”In the UK, design codes are important and engineers are expected to produce a design which conforms to thedesign codes and standards; therefore, design standards are always listed in an Approval in Principle document.
However, in the eyes of a Japanese civil engineer, UK engineers appear to use design codes in a rather flexible
manner. The following are the author’s personal opinions as to where the difference in the culture between thetwo countries arises from:• UK Designers are responsible for any problems/issues associated with the design. If a designer is obliged tocompensate stakeholders such as contactors and clients due to design issues, professional indemnity insurance
covers the designer for their financial obligation. Although stakeholders make comments on the design where
they are concerned, they do not pay attention to whether or not the design is code-compliant.
• A design check is often carried out by independent checking engineers performing separate independent
design calculations in UK. As long as the checkers can satisfy themselves, they do not necessarily interrogate
whether or not the design is compliant with the design standards in detail.

Even if the design is considered to

be non-compliant with the codes, the design is sometimes accepted as the final outcome as long as the originatorand checker agrees that the outcome will not cause a problem to the actual structures to be built subject toapproval.
• At the universities of Cambridge and Oxford, the educational focus is to foster students’ problem-solving
skills by teaching from the physics of engineering from first principles; the contents of the design standards areintentionally not taught at the universities to encourage first-principle thinking for technical problem solving.
• There are a number of different design standards, such as suites of Eurocodes and British standards, which areusually referred to in the design of heavy civil structures.

Client authorities such as Network Rail and

Highways England also have their own suite of standards and specifications. Consequently, designers are usuallyrequired to refer many design standards in order to design a civil structure. There is a real potential for some
important standards are accidentally omitted which should be referred to in the project, even when the design isreviewed by other engineers both internally and externally.
• In recent years, the project focus has been more associated with project management and the effective deliveryof multidisciplinary projects rather than pure technical challenges, which is aligned with an increase in the
project scale in recent years. This has resulted in less attention to the design of each element.
Since the Japanese try to comply with the design codes and standards very strictly, non-compliance with thestandard specifications rarely occurs, which facilitates standardisation for design details. The Japanese culture
prevents engineers from creating their own poor details, and the integrity of structural details are ensured by thedesign standard and specifications, which has led to the production of safe and robust structures in the country.
(It should, however, be noted that when robust structure details were not specified in the design codes in the past,
those details had spread across the country without being modified by the designers in most cases) Despite there
being benefits from the full compliance with the design codes, original design outside the realm of the codes andspecifications is rarely realised within the Japanese design culture. Client authorities usually prefer to adopt
design details which have already been developed in accordance with the existing design standards andspecifications, and design engineers also prefer to use automated design programs which comply with the design
7

standards and specification for efficiency rather than to develop a bespoke design by performing detailed studies
and analyses.
As mentioned earlier, in the UK, design codes and standards are used in a more flexible manner. This culture
provides an opportunity for innovation, where engineers create an unprecedented design. However, not all
engineers have deep technical insight and therefore this design culture, which is lenient on departures from thestandards, can cause significant problems to the built structures from time to time. In the opinion of the author,
the risk of having design errors seems to have being increased in the UK owing to an emphasis on project delivery
and management, which is exacerbated by serious pressure on the designers to minimise quantity and to carryout the design as quickly as possible under the design and build contracts. (We should however note that anincrease in the design errors is a serious problem in Japan)
In order to promote the export of Japanese infrastructure in aligned with the Japanese Government’s politicalstrategy, it is important to customise the standard design adopted in Japan to fit local requirements, as repeatedly
mentioned in other publications.

In order to achieve this goal, I strongly believe engineers/designers based inJapanese firms should perform design in a more flexible manner as well as carry out design in a rigorous andaccurate manner under their culture.

Adopting the spirit of the two cultures should allow them to meet local

requirements and solve site specific issues with safe and robust structures, which should lead to the promotionof the export of Japanese infrastructure.

Civil Engineering Designer at Kajima Corporation
Road to Civil Engineering and Japan.
I was born in XamNeua, a little city in Laos’ north-east mountainous area. During mychildhood, there was no electric power, no gas and no clean water in the city. I had tostudy under the light of oil-lamps until finishing primary level. People used unhygienic
water from digging wells for their daily lives, but it wasn’t enough in dried season andwas extremely polluted in rainy season. NamXam river that flows across the city causes
flood yearly, not only affects to residents’ lives but also damages agricultural productsin the area.
Experiencing many difficulties of my city in general made me wish to do something Rokhamsay Chinda
useful relating to infrastructure for a better living condition. I decided to study civil(Civil engineering designer
at Kajima Corporation)engineering.
After graduating high school, I majored in civil engineering at National University of Laos. In the first year, I
8was deeply impressed by Japan’s civil engineering technology through reading documents and taking university
lectures. Japan suffers natural disasters every year, but Japanese people have successfully created numerous
technology and invention to conquer hazardous nature. Japan’s achievements have motivated me of learning its
huge knowledge of technology. I took part in and passed many required tests to become an oversea student inJapan. My dream has become true.
What a Great Japan!
In 2005, I came Tokyo for my study. I was overwhelmed by the modern of Tokyo: endless highbuildings, convenient traffic systems with a variety of free-ways, hyper railways, tunnels, satisfy
all daily demands of residents like electricity, clean water supply, gas. These things which are
obvious in Japan made me so moved and surprised. From bottom of my heart, Japan is such agreat nation.
A Meaningful Study Period in Japan.
I had two targets during the study time. One is tolearn civil engineering knowledge and another is tosettle myself in Japan and absorb the spirit, mindset
and virtue of Japanese.
After learning Japanese at Tokyo Japanese
Language Education Center for one year, I entered
Maizuru National College of Technology andstudiedbasic

technics. I focused on geotechnical, the basic
ground of civil engineering, by the instruction of
Photo 1 Kyushu Institute of Technology Structural Engineering

professor KATO Yoshinori. After graduating Laboratory
college, I continued my study at Kyushu Institute ofTechnology in order to enhance my knowledge as well as be capable to apply them into reality. I chose theStructural Engineering Lab which specializes in wind engineering and structural analysis. I was instructed byprofessor KIMURA Kichiro during Bachelor degree. Then professor MATSUDA Kazutoshi instructed mysubject at the Master de gree. My research was about the Wind-induced vibrations and anti-vibration measures
such as cables of cable-stayed bridges and main tower of suspension bridge. In my lab there are other three wellknown professor KUBO Yoshinobu, professor YAMAGUCHI Eiki, and assistant professor KATOU Kusuo. Allof the professors not only helped me upgrading my knowledge but also taught me daily social understandings orengineers’ responsibility. All members in the Lab are sincere and kind-hearted. I really spent a meaningful time
while studying oversea in Japan (Photo 1).
Approach Top-of-the-World Civil Engineering Technology.
In spring 2013, I started to work for Kajima Corp, at C ivil Engineering Design Division (Photo 2). My major isdesigning shield tunnels, such as tunnel lining, starting and arrival shaft for shield machines, tunnel attachedstructure etc. My main task is to analyze according to the conditions of the structure and decide the optimum
specifications as well as taking safety and rationality. I was responsible for designing tunnels, such as power
plant cooling water facilities, sewer, rainwater trunk, gas pipeline, and highways. And I also experienced aforeman job at the shield construction site.
9Technology applied to shield tunneling in Japan, suchas large depth, large cross section, underground tunnel
widening, are still being regarded as difficult
techniques in the world. Therefore, I am very honor tohave an opportunity to approach such a modern
technology.
The Favor From the Japanese.
During my oversea study time, I was lucky to receive a
lot invaluable favors from Japan’s government,
organizations and friends. I received financial sponsor
fromJapanese

Government(Monbukagakusho)

Scholarship, Yoshimoto Shoji Scholarship, and Rotary
Yoneyama Memorial Foundation Scholarship. So that I was able to fully concentrate in my study. Also, all of
my Japanese friends are really sincere and kind. To express my sincere thanks to Japan, I have been endeavoring
every day to make my dream come true and contribute to Japan society.
Prospect
I am very lucky to have an opportunity to study and approach high-level technology of Japan. However, there
are many students in the world, especially in Laos, few people have a luck like me. For that reason, I would liketo make best use of my knowledge so that poor countries can develop their infrastructure.
Last but not least, I would like to express my deepest thanks to all lecturers, especially professor MATSUDA
Kazutoshi. I would like to give my sincere thanks to scholarship charities, to all my Japanese friends for theirinvaluable help.

《Column》Kazutoshi Matsuda, Kyushu Institute of Technology, Professor
When I was assigned to Kyushu Institute of Technology in 2011, Mr. Chinda was in the first year of his
Master’s course. His hardworking spirit was stronger than that of Japanese students and his approachto study was impressive. He was honest and good-natured, so he was beloved by everyone in thelaboratory. My best memory with him is when after a meeting in Hakata, we had another party because
we hit it off each other and we both fell asleep on the return train, probably because we trusted eachother. As a result, we went past Tobata Station and woke up at Moji Station.
I hope that he will do his best in advancing toward infrastructure construction on the world stage,
keeping to his original purpose when he aimed for civil engineering.
