Hazama Corporation

Hazama's total engineering capabilities enable it to create state-of-the-art facilities featuring efficiency, amenity and productivity

Hazama's seismic isolation technology has been used in various fields of architecture

Hazama built Japan's first hospital featuring a base isolated seismic structure. It has also constructed various welfare facilities, industrial facilities, including production plants for semiconductors, foodstuffs and other items, and distribution centers using various state-of-the-art technologies. For example, it has applied advanced information management systems and construction methods that isolate seismic forces and enable buildings to resist earthquakes to ensure safety. In addition, it has developed advanced element technology systems, including interior environmental control technology for clean rooms and other facilities.

Advanced Medical Facilities

In recent years, Hazama has recorded some major successes as a builder of hospitals, medical facilities and welfare facilities for the aged. Its buildings are designed to bring the latest information systems and advanced technology to the world of medical care, while at the same time providing people-friendly residential and hospitality areas. Hazama's ideal in this field is the "intelligent hospital" concept. It has applied this concept to the creation of safe and amenable medical and welfare environments. Along this approach, Hazama completed various general hospitals and facilities for the aged.

Sasebo Chuo Hospital is a typical example of a medical facility renewal construction project

Because of the public importance of these buildings and the purposes for which they are used, the scope for the conventional scrap-and-build method of renewal is limited. It is also necessary to provide for the continuing installation of the latest medical equipment, and for the on-going improvement of safety and disaster-prevention systems. For these reasons, construction plans must be based on long-term perspectives that encompass maintenance, management, facility renewal and enhancement, and additions and alterations. Hazama has gained an excellent reputation with proposals based on its "life cycle engineering" concept.

Recently there has been increased demand for measures to strengthen buildings against earthquakes. Hazama has responded to this need by actively proposing the base isolation system. Examples of its approach in this area include the Hoshigaura Hospital, which was the first hospital in Japan with a seismic isolation structure. A base isolation system was also employed in "Riverside YuYu," a health facility for the aged.

An extended-care facility for senior citizens, "Riverside Yu-Yu" was constructed using seismic isolation technology

Production and Distribution Facilities

Recently, Hazama has worked on various facilities in Asian countries, such as the Mabuchi Motors Vietnam factory

Hazama has responded to the increasing sophistication of production and distribution facilities by developing concurrent engineering methods that provide for total management of all aspects, including the installation of factory automation systems, product development and distribution and inventory coordination. It also offers food production engineering know-how based on the HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) method, and logistics engineering, which provides integrated control of distribution operations from order acceptance to delivery. It has employed these technologies in the construction of numerous production and distribution facilities. Hazama has accumulated a rich resource of design and construction know-how for production and distribution facilities and information systems, including technology for clean rooms, air flow analysis, environmental forecasting, micro-vibration measurement and prediction and other systems. This knowledge has been applied in a variety of projects, including overseas plants built for Japanese companies that have expanded into other countries.

Wide Spectrum of Technology

Hazama has gone beyond the confines of the construction field to develop its own original technology to meet the increasingly sophisticated and diverse needs of the medical and manufacturing sectors by building the safe, high-value-added facilities demanded by society.

The Sanyo Philippines Semiconductor Factory, a state-of-the-art industrial facility

Hazama has fused sophisticated basic technologies, including micro-vibration damping, earthquake-resistance and air flow control, to create a resource of sophisticated know-how for use in a variety of medical facilities and high-tech industrial installations. This knowledge has been applied in a wide range of facilities, including industrial clean rooms, which require extremely precise control of the production environment, and bio clean rooms for medical and biotechnology facilities and food production plants, where it is necessary to control floating microorganisms. Hazama also developed the "Clean Nurse" system, which is an efficient and highly economical unit-type clean room.
