Tokyo wards by ground density

Chainbolt · January 20th, 2011, 04:02 PM

I am desperately looking for a map showing the ground density of the Tokyo area, in particular showing the 23 wards in this regard. There are substantial differences in the ground density (and by this in earthquake resistance) within the inner Tokyo area, even within individual wards. I do know such maps exist, I have seen one by myself when an insurance agent was checking my current house some time ago.

The best I could find is this: http://www.bousai.metro.tokyo.jp/jap...aterial_h.html But it's not precise enough. The scale is too big.

Any hint where to find such map would be greatly appreciated.

Now, apparently there was good reason to ask for this. It seems though that none of the skyscrapers in Tokyo collapsed. We got some fires though.
