SRC Annual Report 2004 was issued.
Led by the Products Research Laboratory, "the production link", which is the key to the application of seeds, or in other words, the industrial cooperation of materials, processing, assembly, etc., has started its development from possible areas, and now this measure has spread throughout the entire center. I am very thankful for all the understanding that we have received from individual private sectors regarding this process. 2004 was the definitely the year for transforming this concept into a realistic form, and this can be regarded as our biggest task of the year.
Last year the New Infrastructure Research Team was created to promote the planning of ultra-steel utilization and the Process Engineering Team to attain the maximum possible usage of equipment. The former team acts as the central core to promote “earthquake resistance, corrosion resistance, light weight bridge model” and works with the Public Works Research Institute and the Japanese Society of Steel Construction. The development of this project could not be possible without the participation of people from a wide range of fields. The latter team is strengthening the basics of the Steel Research Center’s original production link and has reached the stage of taking the first steps toward the preparation of its utilization not only by the people within the center but also in making it available to those outside the center.
We hope that you will continue to provide guidance and encouragement to all of us at the Steel Research Center.
