This paper introduces an irrigation facility for agricultural use of Rokugo alluvial fan in Yokote Basin, northeastern Japan. A cylindrical distributor of agricultural water is able to supply water accurately to seven irrigated areas through its 180 orifices and one circular baffle, implying that people around fan areas has been tenacious of agricultural water. It has been recently reevaluated as tourism resources or symbolic landscape reflecting regional characteristics even though its functional value has decreased.

This paper explores the structural application of an expansive SHCC to improve the crack-damage properties of RC flexural members. The results of test on four simply supported slabs are described. The effect of the type of SHCC (Non-and expansive SHCC) and thickness of SHCC layer (10 and 20mm) on the ultimate flexural load, first crack load, crack width and spacing, and the load-deflection relationship of one-way slabs was investigated.
