Abstract: A reinforcing holder against vibrations for mounting on orthogonally joined architectural structural members for a wooden building so it can withstand vibrations from an earthquake. The reinforcing holder comprises a first reinforcing base member 1 which is formed on a steel plate bent by 90° and secured to a first architectural structural member and a second reinforcing member 2 formed of a steel plate bent by 90° which is arranged symmetrically with the first reinforcing base member 1 through a hinge 4 and secured to a second architectural structural member. The second reinforcing base member has absorbing members 3, each having rubber elasticity and being mounted at plurality of locations thereof, for securing to the second architectural structural member with the absorbing members 3 interposed.

Abstract: The reinforcing holder against vibrations has the vibration-proof performance further enhanced as compared with prior art so that a wooden building is not broken down even if strong vibrations are loaded by an earthquake, a typhoon or the like. The reinforcing holder against vibrations 1 comprises an L-shaped base member 2 formed by bending a plate and formed with curved and projecting parts 5a and 5b which are curved inward in intermediate parts of both piece parts 2a and 2b, a reinforcing member 3 formed by bending a plate and placed in contact with a bent part of the L-shaped base member 2, and absorbing members 4 formed of rubber material which has excellent elastic characteristics and water resistance and stopped at a plurality of locations of the L-shaped base member 2. When the reinforcing member 3 is placed in contact with the L-shaped base member 2, a clearance 10 is formed between a bent corner part 3c of the reinforcing member 3 and a bent corner part 2c of the L-shaped member 2.

Abstract: A method for creating a barrier to protect wood materials for house construction or wooden structures such as houses from humidity, moisture and/or biological attacks, such as wood decaying fungi and termites, is disclosed. The method is to treat wood itself or, preferably, the ground surface under the floor with a liquid containing a synthetic resin emulsion and an anti-fungal and wood preservative agent and/or a pesticide such as termite-controlling agent, and further, a foaming agent. The barrier contains a selected copolymer of vinyl acetate and a polyurethane polymer.

Abstract: An under floor insect control method for structures in which an insect control chemical in a mixed resin foam coating is installed under the floor by forcefully mixing, at a nozzle part of the sprayer, and spraying on the soil surface the following: an aqueous emulsion, of which 15-20 percentage by weight is a solid copolymeric resin, based on vinyl acetate and alkyl methacrylate in a proportion ranging from 55-85 and 15-45 parts by weight, respectively; an inert organic solvent solution contains a mixture of diisocyanate and polypropylene glycol in a proportion ranging from 5-15 and 85-95 parts by weight, respectively. The two components make up an adjusted 60-80 percentage by weight as a total volume. An insect control chemical is also included. The proportion of organic solvent solution to the emulsion is in the range of 7-15 percentage by volume. The mixed resin foam insect control barrier formed provides superior insect control chemical immobilization, gas barrier and crack proof properties.
