Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an asbestos investigation support system that supports asbestos investigations in buildings in accordance with laws and regulations. [Background technology]

[0002] When carrying out demolition or renovation work on a building, it is mandatory to conduct a preliminary survey to determine whether or not the building contains asbestos, in accordance with the Asbestos Hazard Prevention Regulations under the Industrial Safety and Health Act, and the Air Pollution Control Act. In particular, from April 1, 2022, for construction projects of a certain scale or larger, the prime contractor or independent builder of the project will be required to report the results of the survey to the prefecture, etc. Furthermore, for construction projects starting after October 1, 2023, a preliminary survey by a qualified person will be mandatory.

[0003] Non-Patent Documents 1 and 2 describe examples of survey methods and survey reports that meet legal requirements. The format of a survey report is not legally determined, and the required information to be reported includes the surveyed building, the purpose of the survey, the target building materials, a summary of the survey results, survey drawings, survey details, survey photographs (including photographs of building materials taken for analysis), and attached materials used in the survey judgment. The content of a survey report is diverse and the amount of information is enormous. Therefore, in order to prepare a survey report appropriately and efficiently, a system is needed to systematically link the information required for the survey report.

[0004] Patent Document 1 discloses an asbestos integrated management system that uses barcodes to associate the collection locations of asbestos-analyzed building materials with the analysis results. Patent Document 2 also discloses an asbestos 3D map generation system that generates a 3D asbestos map of a target structure that allows reference to the locations where asbestos surveys and analysis data were obtained.

[0006] [Non-Patent Document 1] "Textbook for Inspectors of Asbestos-Containing Building Materials: General Buildings, Single-Family Houses, etc., Revised 2nd Edition," compiled by the Central Labor Accident Prevention Association, published February 22, 2023 [Non-patent document 2] Chemical Substances Control Division, Industrial Safety and Health Department, Labor Standards Bureau, Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, and Air Environment Division, Water and Air Environment Bureau, Ministry of the Environment, "Comprehensive Manual for Preventing Asbestos Exposure and Asbestos Dispersion and Leakage During the Demolition of Buildings, etc." [online], published March 2021, updated March 31, 2022, [accessed June 7, 2023], Internet<URL:https: / / www.env.go.jp / air / asbestos / post_71.html> Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0007] However, neither of the technologies in Patent Document 1 nor Patent Document 2 has been able to improve the problems associated with asbestos investigations in accordance with the law.

[0008] In a legally compliant asbestos survey, both written and visual inspections are conducted. The names of materials listed in the design documents used in the written survey process are often general building material names, and if the same material name appears in documents for new construction and renovation, it may be treated as the same building material even though they are from different eras, which could lead to inappropriate judgments.

[0009] In addition, when documents are attached to document or visual inspections to provide the basis for determining whether or not a building contains asbestos, often only the general building material name is available, not the specific product name. In such cases, the inspector must make an appropriate judgment from various sources and select the documents to base their judgment on, which may result in an inappropriate judgment depending on the inspector's knowledge and judgment.

[0010] Furthermore, after a visual inspection at a building site is completed, materials suspected of containing asbestos can be analyzed to determine whether they contain asbestos, or they can be deemed to contain asbestos through a "deemed" judgment. However, there are no set criteria for this selection, and the decision can be made at the discretion of the inspector. Therefore, conducting too many unnecessary building material analyses (i.e., collecting samples and analyzing them to determine whether they contain asbestos) can lead to skyrocketing building material analysis costs. On the other hand, if many building materials are deemed to contain asbestos through a "deemed" judgment in order to keep building material analysis costs low, this can lead to skyrocketing construction and disposal costs after the inspection. In this way, there is a risk that an economically irrational judgment will be made depending on the inspector.

[0011] The present invention was made in consideration of the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to provide an asbestos investigation support system, etc. that can support appropriate and economically rational decisions without relying on the knowledge or judgment of the investigator. [Means for solving the problem]

[0012] To achieve the above-mentioned object, a first invention is an asbestos investigation support system for supporting asbestos investigations of buildings, comprising: a document master registration means for accepting input of attribute information of supporting documents for determining whether the building materials contain asbestos, a first keyword including the product name of the material, and a second keyword including the material name of the material, and storing the input as supporting document information; and a document investigation support means for accepting input of the material name and the product name in a document investigation and storing the input as document investigation information. When the document investigation support means receives an instruction to acquire the supporting document information, it checks whether the product name has been entered, and if the product name has been entered, it searches for the first keyword using the product name as a search criterion. If the product name has not been entered or if no search results are found for the product name, it searches for the second keyword using the material name as a search criterion and displays the search results. The asbestos investigation support system of the first invention can assist investigators with insufficient knowledge in selecting appropriate supporting documents.

[0013] In the first invention, the evidence document information further includes the number of cases in which the evidence document has been adopted in the past, and when there are multiple search results for the evidence document information, the document research support means preferably displays the evidence document information in descending order of the number of adoptions, and when there are no search results for the evidence document information, it is desirable to prompt the user to input new evidence document information. This allows inexperienced researchers to be shown past judgment results by experienced researchers and to be supported in selecting appropriate evidence documents.

[0014] Furthermore, it is desirable that the document investigation support means in the first invention accepts input of the adoption date of the material in the building, and if the material name is the same and at least one of the adoption date or the product name is different, prompts the user to change the material name. This makes it possible to prevent inappropriate decisions that would be made by making the material name the same despite the difference in adoption date or product name.

[0015] In addition, the first invention preferably further comprises a visual inspection support means for, when inputting the results of a visual inspection conducted after the written inspection, acquiring and displaying the written inspection information, checking whether there is consistency between the materials in the written inspection and the visual inspection, and, if there is no consistency, accepting input of the material name confirmed in the visual inspection and storing it as visual inspection information; an analysis determination support means for accepting input of a sample number that identifies a sample for building material analysis to analyze whether the material contains asbestos and storing it as part of the visual inspection information; and a result determination support means for, when receiving an instruction to acquire the supporting document information and, if the sample number has not been input and there is no consistency, searching whether the newly input material name is present in the written inspection information, and, if present, displaying the supporting document information related to the written inspection information with the same material name. This makes it possible to prevent discrepancies from occurring between the results of selecting supporting documents for materials identified in a visual inspection and the results of selecting supporting documents in a document inspection.

[0016] Furthermore, it is desirable that the analysis and judgment support means in the first invention accepts input of a qualitative assessment of the amount of the material used, the possibility that the material contains asbestos, and the construction load required to remove the material, and calculates a recommended judgment result and priority for whether or not to conduct the building material analysis based on the time when the material was adopted for the building. This allows even an inexperienced surveyor to make a highly economically rational judgment on whether or not to conduct a building material analysis.

[0017] The first invention further comprises a photo organizing support means for displaying a photo mount on which the photos taken in the visual inspection are pasted and for receiving input of the images of the photos, and the photo organizing support means preferably creates a description including the location where the photo was taken according to predetermined conditions and displays the description on the photo mount. This saves the effort of inputting the description for each photo and prevents necessary photos from being left out of the organization.

[0018] The first invention further comprises a building material analysis support means for creating print data for a collection label to be affixed to the collection bag of the sample for the building material analysis, and the building material analysis support means preferably creates the print data including the material names of both the finishing material and the base material for the sample for which a stratified analysis of the finishing material and the base material is to be performed. This makes it possible to clearly indicate the material to be subjected to stratified analysis, and prevents mistakes in the collection method.

[0019] The second invention is an asbestos investigation support method in which a computer supports an asbestos investigation of a building, the method comprising: a support document master registration step in which the computer receives input of attribute information of supporting documents for determining whether the building materials contain asbestos, a first keyword including the product name of the material, and a second keyword including the material name of the material, and stores the input as supporting document information; and a document investigation support step in which the computer receives input of the material name and the product name in a document investigation, and stores the input as supporting document information. The document investigation support step, upon receiving an instruction to acquire the supporting document information, checks whether the product name has been entered, and if the product name has been entered, searches for the first keyword using the product name as a search criterion; and if the product name has not been entered or if no search results are found for the product name, searches for the second keyword using the material name as a search criterion and displays the search results. By executing the asbestos investigation support method of the second invention, it is possible to support insufficient investigators in selecting appropriate supporting documents.

[0020] A third invention is a program for causing a computer to function as an asbestos investigation support system for supporting asbestos investigations of buildings, the program causing the computer to function as: a document master registration means for accepting input of attribute information of documentary evidence for determining whether the building materials contain asbestos, a first keyword including the product name of the material, and a second keyword including the material name of the material, and storing the input as documentary evidence information; and a document investigation support means for accepting input of the material name and the product name in a document investigation, and storing the input as document investigation information. When the document investigation support means receives an instruction to obtain the documentary evidence information, it checks whether the product name has been entered, and if the product name has been entered, it searches for the first keyword using the product name as a search criterion; and if the product name has not been entered or if no search results are found for the product name, it searches for the second keyword using the material name as a search criterion and displays the search results. By installing the program of the third invention on a general-purpose computer, the asbestos investigation support system of the first invention can be constructed. [Effects of the Invention]

[0021] The present invention can provide an asbestos investigation support system etc. that can support appropriate and economically rational decisions without relying on the investigator's knowledge or judgment. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0023] An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The asbestos investigation support system in this embodiment of the present invention is a computer-based system that supports asbestos investigations of buildings in accordance with regulations. The asbestos investigation support system supports the creation of asbestos investigation reports required by the Ordinance on Asbestos Hazard Prevention and the Air Pollution Control Act before building demolition and renovation work, as well as for building maintenance and real estate transactions. Although the use of asbestos-containing building materials was prohibited in September 2006, buildings, ships, structures, etc. that were constructed or manufactured before that date may contain asbestos. This poses a risk of health problems for workers demolishing and renovating buildings and for people using them. To prevent this problem, the Ordinance on Asbestos Hazard Prevention was enacted in 2005, making asbestos investigations mandatory. Asbestos investigations require comprehensive coverage of all target areas.

[0024] Investigators first conduct a written investigation based on building design documents, etc., and then use the results of the written investigation to conduct a visual investigation of the target building and compile information on the materials actually used. After this, investigators classify each material into suspected asbestos-containing building materials (i.e., materials that cannot be determined to be asbestos-free), asbestos-free building materials, and unknown materials based on information from the country and manufacturer. Note that materials that are determined to be unknown may be those for which there is no information on the building materials used, or those for which there is information but the material cannot be determined. For materials suspected of containing asbestos, investigators determine whether they contain asbestos through material analysis, or whether they should be deemed to be asbestos-containing building materials. Investigators then collect and organize this information and prepare a report.

[0025] Figure 1 is a diagram showing an overview of the asbestos investigation support system 1. As shown in Figure 1, the asbestos investigation support system 1 is composed of a terminal 2 and a server 3 connected to the terminal 2 via a network 4. The terminal 2 is connected to a printing device 5 directly or via the network 4. There is no particular limit to the number of terminals 2 and servers 3. It is also possible to build the asbestos investigation support system 1 using only one computer.

[0026] The asbestos investigation support system 1 may be configured as a so-called client / server system, with dedicated programs installed on the terminal 2 and the server 3, or as a so-called web system, with dedicated programs installed on the server 3 and general-purpose web browsing software installed on the terminal 2. Furthermore, the server 3 may be an on-premise server installed within a company, or a virtual server built by a provider that provides cloud services.

[0027] Fig. 2 is a hardware configuration diagram of a computer 10 which is the terminal 2 and the server 3. As shown in Fig. 2, the computer 10 is configured by a control unit 11, a storage unit 12, a communication unit 13, an input unit 14, a display unit 15, a peripheral device I / F unit 16, etc., and these pieces of hardware are connected by a bus 17. Note that the configuration of the computer 10 shown in Fig. 2 is an example, and various configurations can be used as appropriate.

[0028] The control unit 11 is composed of a CPU (Central Processing Unit), ROM (Read Only Memory), RAM (Random Access Memory), etc. The CPU loads programs stored in the memory unit 12, ROM, recording medium, etc. into a work memory area on the RAM and executes them, driving and controlling each unit connected via the bus 17. The ROM permanently stores programs such as the computer's boot program and BIOS, as well as data. The RAM temporarily stores loaded programs and data, and also has a work area used by the control unit 11 to perform various processes. By reading and executing the above programs, the control unit 11 functions as each means of the asbestos investigation support system 1 shown in Figure 3, which will be described later.

[0029] The memory unit 12 is, for example, a storage device such as a hard disk drive, solid state drive, or flash memory. The memory unit 12 stores programs executed by the control unit 11, data necessary for program execution, an operating system, etc. These program codes are read out as needed by the control unit 11 and transferred to RAM, and then read out and executed by the CPU. The memory unit 12 also stores various data used in the asbestos investigation support system 1.

[0030] The communication unit 13 has a communication control device and a communication port, and controls communication with the network 4, etc. The input unit 14 is, for example, a pointing device such as a keyboard or a mouse, or a touch panel integrated with a display, and inputs data to the control unit 11. The display unit 15 is composed of a display device such as a liquid crystal panel and a logic circuit (video adapter, etc.) for executing display processing in cooperation with the display device, and displays display data input under the control of the control unit 11 on the display device. The peripheral device I / F unit 16 is a port for connecting a peripheral device (for example, the printing device 5, etc.), and transmits and receives data to and from the peripheral device via the peripheral device I / F unit 16. The connection with the peripheral device may be wired or wireless.

[0031] 3 is a diagram showing the flow of information in the asbestos investigation support system 1. Information in the asbestos investigation support system 1 includes external information 21, information stored in the system 22, work tools (printed materials) 23, and report documents (printed materials) 24. The general flow of information is that the external information 21 is reflected in the information stored in the system 22, and the information stored in the system 22 is reflected in the work tools (printed materials) 23 and report documents (printed materials) 24.

[0032] The external information 21 includes drawing numbering information 21a, which is a number that uniquely identifies a room (location) of a building, blueprint document information 21b obtained from the blueprints of the building, visual inspection information 21c obtained from a visual inspection of the building, analysis results 21d of building material analysis, etc. Using floor plans and elevations of the building, the investigator assigns numbers or symbols to each room for the interior and numbers or symbols to each part (location) for the exterior, and this is used as drawing numbering information 21a.

[0033] The system-stored information 22 includes a detailed table 22a as the primary information, as well as related information. Related information includes a supporting document master 22b, an investigation location input table 22c, a finishing information input table 22d, a written investigation decision table 22e, an attachment list table 22f, a visual investigation input table 22g, an analysis decision checklist 22h, a sample collection list 22i, a result decision table 22j, an attachment list 22k, a photo mount 22l, and photo data 22m. Work tools (printed materials) 23 include an investigation record sheet 23a that investigators bring with them during visual investigations and building material collection labels 23b that are affixed to containers used to collect building materials for analysis. Report documents (printed materials) 24 include an investigation result report 24a, an asbestos investigation detail table 24b, an investigation photo collection 24c, and an attachment collection 24d, which are submitted when reporting in accordance with laws and regulations.

[0034] 4 is a block diagram showing the functions of the asbestos investigation support system 1. The control unit 11 of the terminal 2 and server 3 that constitute the asbestos investigation support system 1 drives and controls the memory unit 12, communication unit 13, input unit 14, display unit 15, peripheral device I / F unit 16, etc., and functions as a supporting document master registration means 31, document investigation support means 32, visual investigation support means 33, analysis and judgment support means 34, building material analysis support means 35, result judgment support means 36, photo organization support means 37, report output means 38, etc. Details of each means will be described later.

[0035] To avoid confusion, the asbestos investigation support system 1 will be described below as being configured as a client / server system with dedicated programs installed on the terminal 2 and server 3. The basic operation of the hardware of the terminal 2 and server 3 is as follows: The control unit 11 of the terminal 2 displays various screens on the display unit 15 of the terminal 2, accepts data input from the investigator via the input unit 14 of the terminal 2, and transmits the data to the server 3 via the communication unit 13. In response to a request received from the terminal 2, the control unit 11 of the server 3 stores data in the memory unit 12 of the server 3, searches the memory unit 12 of the server 3, and transmits the search results to the terminal 2 via the communication unit 13. The control unit 11 of the terminal 2 displays data received from the server 3 on the display unit 15 of the terminal 2. The control unit 11 of the terminal 2 also transmits various print data to the printer 5 via the peripheral device I / F unit 16 or the communication unit 13. The printer 5 prints the print data received from the terminal 2.

[0036] 5 and 6 are examples of main table layouts. A database including the tables shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 and other tables not shown is constructed in the storage unit 12 of the server 3. Hereinafter, if the item names are the same even in different tables, such as judgment grounds 41l and judgment grounds 42j, they are considered to have the same properties.

[0037] 5(a) stores information from the evidence document master 22b related to documents (=evidence documents) such as country and manufacturer documents that serve as the basis for classifying each material into suspected asbestos-containing building materials and asbestos-free building materials. The evidence document master table 41 uses an evidence document identification number 41a, which uniquely identifies each evidence document, as a primary key, and also includes a major classification code 41b, a minor classification code 41c, a source name 41d, a title 41e, a source 41f, a source URL 41g, a source department 41h, a source contact information 41i, an attachment file path 41j, an update date 41k (the year, Japanese calendar year, and month and date may be stored separately), a judgment basis 41l, product name keywords 41m, material name keywords 41n, survey content and results (contents) 41o, and the number of adoptions 41p.

[0038] The major classification code 41b and minor classification code 41c are stored separately, each associated with a corresponding code. The attached file path 41j is the address of the storage area where the electronic file of the supporting documents is stored. The determination basis 41l is a summary of the basis for classifying building materials as suspected to contain asbestos from asbestos-free building materials. For example, it is attribute information of the supporting documents, such as "Association documents," "Manufacturer documents," "Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism documents," or "Asbestos database," as well as explanatory text such as "Generally not containing" or "After the ban on asbestos product manufacturing." The product name keywords 41m are keywords for searching the supporting documents, such as the product name of the material, the abbreviation of the source, or part of the title. The material name keywords 41n are keywords for searching the supporting documents, such as the general name of the material or its abbreviation. The investigation content and results (content) 41o are examples of sentences concisely describing the investigation content and results. The number of adoptions 41p is the number of cases in which the supporting documents were adopted as the basis for the final investigation results.

[0039] Although not shown in the figure, the database constructed in the memory unit 12 of the server 3 includes, in addition to the supporting document master table 41, master tables for business partners requesting asbestos surveys, survey agencies and surveyors conducting asbestos surveys, analysis agencies and analysts conducting building material analysis, building drawings and on-site photo collections, building structure, building use, findings, years, etc.

[0040] 5(b) stores the document investigation determination table 22e. The document investigation determination table 42 has a composite primary key of a management number 42a that uniquely identifies the management case, a building number 42b that uniquely identifies the building, and a document material identification number 42c that uniquely identifies the building material in the document investigation, and includes a material name 42d, a year of adoption 42e, a product name 42f, a manufacturer name 42g, a possibility of asbestos inclusion 42h, a type of asbestos 42i, a determination basis 42j, a supporting document identification number 42k, an attached document number 42l, etc.

[0041] Material name 42d is the general name or abbreviation of the material listed in the design documents. If only the product name is listed in the design documents, the general name of the product is used. Year of adoption 42e indicates the year or month when the material was adopted in the building. Note that, in relation to the period when asbestos products were banned, the year (month) of completion is used for periods before August 2006, and the year (month) of construction start is used for periods after September 2006. Year of adoption 42e is the year or month when construction was completed or started for buildings that have not been remodeled or expanded. If the material was adopted at the time of remodeling or expansion, it is the year or month when construction work on the building was completed or started. If the year of completion or expansion or expansion is unknown, it is considered unknown. Unlike material name 42d, product name 42f is a name that can identify each manufacturer. Attachment number 42l is the serial number of supporting documents attached to the report.

[0042] The result determination table 43 shown in Figure 5(c) stores the inspection records obtained from on-site visual inspections via the visual inspection input table 22g and the detail table 22a. The result determination table 43 uses the management number 43a, building number 43b, and visual material identification number 43c, which uniquely identifies the building material in the visual inspection, as a composite primary key. It also includes fields such as document_material_name 43d, document_judgment_basis 43e, document_attachment_number 43f, consistency check 43g, existing material name 43h, observations, confirmation, and judgment items 43i, sample number 43j, collection number 43k, judgment basis 43l, evidence document identification number 43m, attachment number 43n, asbestos presence / absence 43o, asbestos type 43p, and level 43q. The notation "document_" is used to distinguish between the document inspection and the visual inspection, and the same applies below.

[0043] The consistency confirmation 43g is a flag indicating whether the material identified in the written survey is the same as the material confirmed in the visual survey. If the material name in the written survey differs from the material confirmed in the on-site visual survey, the material name confirmed in the visual survey is stored in the existing material name 43h. The observations, confirmations, and judgments 43i are memoranda of what the investigator noticed during the visual survey. The sample number 43j is a number that identifies the sample for building material analysis. The collection number 43k is a number that identifies the collection location for the same sample number 43j. When conducting building material analysis, samples are usually collected from three or more locations for one material. The asbestos presence / absence 43o is the result of determining whether the material contains asbestos. Level 43q indicates the level of work required to mitigate the risk of asbestos dispersion, and is divided into three levels: Level 1 (asbestos-containing sprayed materials), Level 2 (asbestos-containing thermal insulation materials, fire-resistant coating materials, and insulation materials), and Level 3 (other asbestos-containing building materials), with Level 1 being the most dangerous.

[0044] 6(a) stores the result determination table 22j. The detailed table 44 uses a management number 44a, a building number 44b, and a detailed number 44c that uniquely identifies the material in the detailed table as a composite primary key, and includes a location 44d, a No. 44e, a room (location) name 44f, a part 44g, a document_material name 44h, a document_adoption year 44i, a document_product name 44j, a document_manufacturer name 44k, a document_possibility of asbestos inclusion 44l, a document_type of asbestos 44m, a document_judgment basis 44n, a document_attached documents 44o, a consistency check 44p, an existing material name 44q, a notice, confirmation, and judgment item 44r, a sample number 44s, a collection number 44t, a judgment basis 44u, an attached document number 44v, asbestos inclusion or not 44w, an asbestos type 44x, and a level 44y.

[0045] Location 44d indicates a rough location within the building, for example, first floor, second floor, outside, etc. No. 44e is a number that uniquely identifies a room (location) of the building, and reflects the plan numbering information 21a. Part 44g indicates each element that makes up the room (location), for example, if the room (location) name 44f is "Entrance", the parts would be "Floor 1", "Floor 1 base", "Baseboard 1", "Wall 1", "Wall 1 base", "Ceiling 1", etc.

[0046] 6(b) stores information related to the analysis determination checklist 22h. The analysis determination checklist table 45 uses a management number 45a, a building number 45b, and a material identification number 45c that uniquely identifies the material that is the subject of analysis determination as a composite primary key, and includes a material name 45d, a number of used parts 45e, a year of adoption 45f, an asbestos-containing suspicion flag 45g, a level 45h, a usage amount 45i, a possibility of asbestos containing 45j, a construction load 45k, a priority 45l, a determination result 45m, an analysis implementation flag 45n, a sample number 45o, etc.

[0047] The number of areas used 45e is the number of areas where the material is used. The asbestos-containing suspicion flag 45g is a flag indicating whether or not there is suspicion of asbestos containing. The amount used 45i, the possibility of asbestos containing 45j, and the construction load 45k are evaluation items by the investigator. The priority 45l and the judgment result 45m are calculation items by the computer 10. Details of the amount used 45i to the judgment result 45m will be described later with reference to Figure 12. The analysis implementation flag 45n is a flag indicating whether or not an analysis will be implemented.

[0048] Although not shown in the figure, the database constructed in the memory unit 12 of the server 3 may include tables corresponding to each piece of information stored in the system 22 shown in Figure 3, in addition to the written investigation judgment table table 42 to the analysis judgment checklist table 45.

[0049] <Evidence document master registration means 31> The evidence document master registration means 31 accepts input of attribute information of evidence documents for determining whether or not a building material contains asbestos, a first keyword including the product name of the material, and a second keyword including the material name of the material via the evidence document master registration screen, and stores the information as evidence document information in the evidence document master table 41. By storing the attribute information of the evidence document together with the first keyword and the second keyword, evidence documents can be efficiently searched for in the processing described below. An example of attribute information of the evidence document is shown in Figure 5(a), but is not limited to this example.

[0050] The details of the evidence document master registration means 31 will be explained below. Figure 7 is an example of an evidence document master registration screen 50. When the major and minor classifications of the evidence document are entered on the master setting screen (not shown) and the New button is pressed, the terminal 2 transmits a new registration request together with the major and minor classifications of the evidence document to the server 3. The server 3 automatically assigns an evidence document identification number, adds a new record to the evidence document master table 41, and transmits the evidence document identification number, etc. to the terminal 2. The terminal 2 then displays the evidence document master registration screen 50 shown in Figure 7.

[0051] In the example of Figure 7, the classification 51a displays the major category "Country-related" and the minor category "Asbestos Database," and the supporting document identification number 51b displays "000300." Terminal 2 accepts input of source name 51c, title 51d, source 51e, source URL 51f, source department 51g, source contact information 51h, attached files 51i, last update date 51j, judgment basis 51k, and investigation details / results (contents) 51n as attribute information of the supporting document. Terminal 2 also accepts input of product name keywords 51l as primary keywords and material name keywords 51m as secondary keywords. When the user presses the register button 52, terminal 2 transmits the data entered in each field to server 3. Server 3 stores the data received from terminal 2 in each field of the supporting document master table 41 and stores the number of adoptions 41p as 0.

[0052] <Document research support measures 32> The document investigation support means 32 accepts input of material names and product names in document investigations and stores them as document investigation information in the document investigation determination table 42. When the document investigation support means 32 accepts an instruction to acquire supporting document information, it checks whether a product name has been entered. If a product name has been entered, it searches for a first keyword in the supporting document information using the product name as a search criterion. If a product name has not been entered or if no search results are found for the product name, it searches for a second keyword in the supporting document information using the material name as a search criterion and displays the search results. This allows researchers with insufficient knowledge to select appropriate supporting documents. As described in the explanation of the document investigation determination table 42 in Figure 5(b), it is assumed that the material name is entered as the general name or abbreviation of the material, and that the product name is entered as a name that can identify each manufacturer, unlike the material name.

[0053] Furthermore, when multiple search results for supporting document information are found, the document investigation support means 32 prioritizes displaying the most frequently adopted supporting documents (i.e., the number of times they have been adopted in the past, as included in the supporting document information) and prompts the user to enter new supporting document information if no supporting document information is found. "Displaying in order of the most frequently adopted supporting documents" means, for example, displaying the single search result with the most adoptions, or displaying multiple search results sorted by the most frequently adopted supporting documents. This allows less experienced investigators to view past judgments made by more experienced investigators and assist them in selecting appropriate supporting documents. As described in the explanation of the supporting document master table 41 in Figure 5(a), the number of adoptions refers to the number of times the supporting document was adopted as the basis for the final investigation results. The counting process for the number of adoptions is performed by the result determination support means 36, which will be described later. In the counting process, each document adopted in either the document investigation determination table 22e or the result determination table 22j, or both, for one investigation case (even if multiple buildings exist), is counted as one. The same attached document, even if adopted in multiple places, is also counted as one.

[0054] The document investigation support means 32 also accepts input of the adoption date of a material in a building. If the material name is the same but at least one of the adoption date or product name is different, a message prompting the user to change the material name is displayed. This prevents inappropriate judgments due to the same material name being used despite differences in adoption date or product name. To distinguish between materials with the same name, for example, assigning a classification number to "gypsum board" (e.g., "gypsum board 1" or "gypsum board 2") is conceivable. However, in rare cases, such as asbestos-free products, there are materials that can be used with the same material name even if the adoption date or product name is different. Therefore, the system merely issues a warning. In this embodiment, as described in the explanation of Adoption Year 42e in the document investigation determination table 42 in Figure 5(b), the adoption date is assumed to be the year or month when the building was constructed or started if the building has not been expanded or remodeled. If the material was adopted when the building was expanded or remodeled, the year or month when the building was expanded or remodeled is assumed to be entered.

[0055] The document research support means 32 will be described in detail below. Figures 8 and 9 are examples of a detailed table screen 60. The detailed table screen 60 is long horizontally, so Figure 8 shows the left portion, and Figure 9 shows the right portion. The detailed table screen 60 has display items from location 61a to level 61v, and includes a display area for data stored in the detailed table 44, and various buttons 62a to 62p. The various buttons 62a to 62p are arranged roughly in the order of the work, so the researcher can proceed with the work in the correct order by pressing the buttons in order.

[0056] When the survey location input table creation button 62a is pressed, the terminal 2 creates a survey location input table file (not shown) in spreadsheet software (for example, Microsoft Excel (registered trademark)) and displays it on the display unit 15. The survey location input table file is a file for inputting the names of rooms (locations) at each location in a building. For example, in a two-story building, the locations are the first floor, second floor, and outside. For example, the names of rooms (locations) on the first floor are No. 1 "Entrance," No. 2 "Hall," No. 3 "Corridor," and so on. The surveyor enters information into the survey location input table based on the drawing numbering information 21a.

[0057] Next, when the room (location) name import button 62b is pressed, the terminal 2 acquires information from the investigation location input table file and displays it in the location 61a, No. 61b, and room (location) name 61c of the details table screen 60.

[0058] Next, when the Finishing Schedule Creation button 62c is pressed, the terminal 2 creates a finishing schedule file in spreadsheet software and displays it on the display unit 15. FIG. 10 shows an example of a finishing schedule file 70. The finishing schedule file 70 is composed of an interior finishing schedule sheet and an exterior finishing schedule sheet (not shown) shown in FIG. 10. The interior finishing schedule includes floor building material information 74 for each room (location), baseboard building material information (not shown), wall building material information (not shown), ceiling building material information (not shown), and other building material information (not shown). The exterior finishing schedule also includes similar information. For example, the floor building material information 74 includes floor 1 finish, floor 1 base, floor 2 finish, floor 2 base, etc., and for each portion, includes material name 75a, adoption year 75b, and product name 75c. If a third type of flooring material is present or if there are multiple floor bases, it is possible to add additional columns as needed. In the example shown in Figure 10, for the "Floor 1 Finish" area, the material name 75a is "clinker tile," the adoption year 75b is "S50," and the product name 75c is "unknown." The researcher inputs information about the finishing and base building materials for each area into the finish table file 70 based on the design document information 21b at the time of completion, renovation, and extension.

[0059] Next, when the Import Finishing Schedule Information button 62d is pressed, terminal 2 retrieves information from the finishing schedule file 70 and displays it in the Location 61d, Material Name 61e, Adoption Year 61f, and Product Name 61g fields on the Details Table Screen 60. If the material names 61e are identical, terminal 2 checks whether at least one of the Adoption Year 61f or Product Name 61g is different. If the material names 61e are identical and at least one of the Adoption Year 61f or Product Name 61g is different, terminal 2 displays a message superimposed on the Details Table Screen 60 stating, "Data exists with the same material name, even though at least one of the Adoption Year or Product Name is different." This prompts the investigator to change the material name 61e. Because many of the material names listed in design documents used in the document survey are general building material names, this prevents the investigator from entering the same material name despite different adoption years or product names, resulting in inappropriate judgments being made in subsequent surveys. If the researcher wishes to change the material name 61e, he / she changes the information in the finishing schedule file 70 and then presses the finish schedule information import button 62d again. However, since it may be correct to treat materials as the same even if the adoption year or product name is different, the terminal 2 only issues a warning and allows the researcher to press the next button even if the material name 61e is not changed.

[0060] Next, when the Create Document Investigation Determination Table button 62e is pressed, the terminal 2 displays a document investigation determination screen on the display unit 15. Figure 11 is an example of a document investigation determination screen 80. The document investigation determination screen 80 is composed of a building area 81, a document investigation determination area 82, and an attached document area 83. This document investigation determination screen 80 is used to determine the possibility of asbestos inclusion from the attached documents that serve as the basis for the determination.

[0061] The building name 81b is displayed for each No. 81a in the building area 81. When one of the rows is selected with the cursor and the Get Building Document Information button 81c is pressed, the terminal 2 obtains information about the selected building from the details table 60 processed by the Import Finishing Table Information button 62d, and displays it in the material name 82a, adoption year 82b, and product name 82c in the document survey judgment area 82.

[0062] Next, when the determination basis document acquisition button 82j is pressed, the terminal 2 transmits a first determination basis document acquisition request to the server 3, and the server 3 executes the first basis document information acquisition process. Figure 12 is a flowchart showing the flow of the first basis document information acquisition process. The server 3 reads the data displayed in the document investigation judgment area 82 one by one in accordance with the flowchart in Figure 12, searches the basis document master table 41, and acquires the determination basis 41l and the basis document identification number 41a.

[0063] As shown in Figure 12, the server 3 reads the first data item displayed in the document investigation judgment area 82 (step S1), and checks whether the employment year 82b indicates that construction began after September 2006 (September 2006) (step S2). If the employment year 82b is after September 2006 (Yes in step S2), the server 3 determines the basis for judgment as "after the ban on asbestos product manufacturing" and the attached documents as "-" (step S3), and proceeds to step S9. This is because the manufacturing of asbestos products has been prohibited by law since September 2006.

[0064] If the adoption year 82b is before August 2006 (No in step S2), the server 3 checks whether the product name 82c is unknown (step S4). If the product name 82c is known (No in step S4), the server 3 searches the product name etc. keywords 41m (=first keywords) in the supporting document master table 41 using the product name 82c (step S5). It is desirable for the server 3 to perform a fuzzy search. For example, if the second material name 82a in the document investigation judgment area 82 shown in Figure 11 is "Vinyl tile (A) 2" (note that rounded letters and numbers cannot be used, so parentheses are used instead; the same applies below), the server 3 searches the product name etc. keywords 41m using only "Vinyl tile." Note that "(A)" is an abbreviation for thickness, and "(A) 2" means a thickness of 2 mm.

[0065] If the product name is unknown (Yes in step S4) or if the search result for the product name is zero (Yes in step S6), the server 3 searches the material name keyword 41n (=second keyword) in the evidence material master table 41 using the material name 82a (step S7). As in step S5, it is desirable for the server 3 to perform a fuzzy search.

[0066] Then, the server 3 determines the basis for judgment and the evidence document identification number from the search results based on the product name or material name (step S8). If there are multiple search results, the server 3 determines the data with the largest number of adopted items 41p in the evidence document master table 41. If there is no data with the number of adopted items 41p immediately after the start of operation, or if the number of adopted items 41p is the same, the server 3 may preferentially display the data with the smallest evidence document identification number 41a.

[0067] Next, the server 3 checks whether processing of all data displayed in the document investigation judgment area 82 has been completed (step S9). If processing has not been completed (No in step S9), the server 3 reads the next data (step S10) and repeats the process from step S2. If processing has been completed (Yes in step S9), the server 3 terminates the first evidence document information acquisition process. Then, the server 3 transmits the judgment basis and evidence document identification number corresponding to each material name 82a to the terminal 2, and the terminal 2 displays the data received from the server 3 in the judgment basis 82g and evidence document identification number 82h in the document investigation judgment area 82. If there is a material name 82a for which there is no corresponding evidence document, the terminal 2 displays a message urging the user to register a new evidence document, such as "There is no corresponding evidence document for material name XX, so please register it in the evidence document master."

[0068] Returning to the explanation of Figure 11, when a specific row in the document investigation judgment area 82 is selected with the cursor, the terminal 2 transmits a request for obtaining decision basis materials to the server 3 along with information identifying this specific material. The server 3 executes a first decision basis material acquisition process for the specific material. That is, the server 3 executes the first decision basis material acquisition process from step S2 to step S8 of Figure 12 for the specific material. If there are multiple search results, the server 3 assigns display priority numbers to the source material master table 41 in descending order of the number of adoptions 41p, and transmits the source name 41d, title 41e, and decision basis 41l to the terminal 2. The terminal 2 displays the data received from the server 3 in the display priority 83a, source name 83b, title 83c, and decision basis 83d of the attachment area 83 in the order of display priority numbers.

[0069] When a line indicating a specific attachment in the attachment area 83 is selected with the cursor and the change attachment button 83f is pressed, the terminal 2 links information about this specific attachment to the data of the line selected with the cursor in the document investigation judgment area 82, and changes the displayed contents of the judgment basis 82g and the evidence document identification number 82h. When a line indicating a specific attachment in the attachment area 83 is selected with the cursor and the display attachment button 83e is pressed, the terminal 2 retrieves the attachment from the server 3 and displays it in a pop-up, allowing the investigator to check the contents of the attachment. When the edit operation button 82k is pressed, the terminal 2 displays the items from the manufacturer name 82d to the evidence document identification number 82h in an editable format and accepts input.

[0070] The researcher repeatedly performs the operations related to the judgment evidence document acquisition button 82j and the editing operation button 82k for all buildings displayed in the building area 81. Then, when the all building attachment number assignment button 82l is pressed, the terminal 2 assigns a serial number that uniquely identifies the attachment to the evidence document identification number 82h displayed in the document investigation judgment area 82 (however, if the evidence document identification number is the same, the same serial number is assigned), and displays it in the attachment 82i. Then, when the registration button 82m is pressed, the terminal 2 sends the entered data to the server 3. The server 3 automatically assigns the document material identification number 42c and stores the data received from the terminal 2 in the document investigation judgment table 42. This determines the document investigation judgment content.

[0071] Returning to the explanation of Figures 8 and 9, when the document investigation determination table import button 62f is pressed, the terminal 2 sends a document investigation information acquisition request to the server 3. The server 3 acquires data from the document investigation determination table table 42 and sends it to the terminal 2. The terminal 2 displays the data received from the server 3 in the manufacturer name 61h, possibility of asbestos inclusion 61i, type of asbestos 61j, basis for judgment 61k, and attached documents 61l on the details table screen 60.

[0072] <Visual inspection support method 33> The visual inspection support means 33 acquires and displays written inspection information when the results of the visual inspection carried out after the written inspection are input, checks whether there is consistency between the materials in the written inspection and the visual inspection, and if there is no consistency, accepts input of the name of the material confirmed in the visual inspection and stores it as visual inspection information in the result determination table 43. As described in the explanation of the result determination table 43 in Figure 5(c), the consistency check is expected to be input as a flag indicating whether the material identified in the written inspection and the material confirmed in the visual inspection are the same or not.

[0073] The visual inspection support means 33 will be described in detail below. When the inspection record sheet print button 62g on the details table screen 60 is pressed, the terminal 2 creates print data for the inspection record sheet 23a that the inspector brings to the visual inspection to record the inspection details, and sends the print data to the printer 5 via the peripheral device I / F unit 16, etc. The printer 5 prints the inspection record sheet 23a using the print data received from the terminal 2. The inspection record sheet 23a is a printed material for entering the details of consistency checks with the written inspection, the names of materials identified during the visual inspection, and any observations, confirmations, or judgments made during the visual inspection. The inspector also takes photographs during the visual inspection. Specifically, the inspector takes photographs of the current state and each material, room by room if inside the building, or location by location if outside. He also takes photographs of the collection of materials collected for building material analysis, and stores these as data for the inspection photo album 24c.

[0074] When the visual inspection input table creation button 62h on the detail table screen 60 is pressed, the terminal 2 creates a visual inspection input table file (not shown) in spreadsheet software and displays it on the display unit 15. The visual inspection input table file is a file for inputting information recorded in the inspection record table 23a. The inspector inputs information into the visual inspection input table file based on the inspection record table 23a.

[0075] When the Import Visual Inspection Information button 62i on the detail table screen 60 is pressed, the terminal 2 acquires information from the visual inspection input table 22g, displays it in the consistency check 61m, existing material name 61n, and observations, confirmation, and judgment items 61o on the detail table screen 60, and transmits the data to the server 3. If there is a material in the visual inspection input table 22g that is not included in the written inspection, the terminal 2 adds a row to the detail table screen 60, acquires information about that material (including location, number, room (location) name, and part information) from the visual inspection input table 22g, and displays it in the location 61a, number 62, room (location) name 61c, part 61d, consistency check 61m, existing material name 61n, and observations, confirmation, and judgment items 61o on the detail table screen 60, and transmits the data to the server 3. The server 3 automatically assigns a detail number 44c and stores the data received from the terminal 2 in the detail table table 44.

[0076] <Analysis and judgment support means 34> The analysis and judgment support means 34 accepts input of a qualitative assessment of the amount of material used, the possibility that the material contains asbestos, and the construction load required to remove the material, and calculates a recommended judgment result and priority for whether or not to conduct a building material analysis to analyze whether the material contains asbestos, based on the qualitative assessment and the time the material was adopted for the building. This allows even an inexperienced investigator to make a highly economically rational decision on whether or not to conduct a building material analysis.

[0077] The analysis and judgment support means 34 also accepts input of a sample number that identifies the sample for the building material analysis and stores it as part of the visual inspection information. It is assumed that the same sample number will be input for materials that undergo stratified analysis as a set of finishing materials and base materials.

[0078] The analysis judgment support means 34 will be described in detail below. When the analysis judgment checklist creation button 62j is pressed, the terminal 2 displays an analysis judgment check screen on the display unit 15. Fig. 13 is an example of the analysis judgment check screen 90. The analysis judgment check screen 90 is made up of a building area 91 and an analysis judgment checklist area 92.

[0079] In the building area 91, building names 91b are displayed for each No. 91a. When one of the rows is selected with the cursor and the Get Building Existing Material Name button 91c is pressed, the terminal 2 sends a request to the server 3 to obtain the name of an existing building material, along with information identifying the selected building. The server 3 searches the detail table 44 based on the information received from the terminal 2, and obtains the existing material name 44q. Here, the server 3 counts the number of data items registered in the detail table 44 for each existing material name 44q, and transmits the counted result as the number of locations of use to the terminal 2 together with the existing material name. The terminal 2 displays the data received from the server 3 in the existing material name 92a and number of locations of use 92b in the analysis and judgment check table area 92.

[0080] When the Adoption Year to Construction Load Input button 92m is pressed, the terminal 2 displays the Adoption Year 92c through Construction Load 92h fields in an editable format and accepts input. The investigator enters the year in Adoption Year 92c based on the results of the written and visual inspections, and enters "Unknown" for items for which the year is unknown. The investigator then determines whether or not there is a suspicion of asbestos based on the Existing Material Name 92a and Adoption Year 92c. If there is a suspicion, the investigator checks the Suspected Asbestos-Containing Building Material 92d. If the Suspected Asbestos-Containing Building Material 92d field is not checked, the material is treated as asbestos-free in subsequent processing, and no information is displayed in the fields from Level 92e to Sample Number 92l, and no input is permitted. For materials for which a check mark has been entered in the Suspected Asbestos-Containing Building Material 92d field, the investigator enters one of the work levels 1 to 3 in Level 92e, based on the risk of asbestos dispersion if it contains asbestos.

[0081] If materials suspected of containing asbestos are discovered during the investigation, there are two methods: determining whether or not they contain asbestos through building material analysis, or a "deemed determination" method in which the materials are deemed to contain asbestos without conducting a building material analysis. There are no legal restrictions on which method to choose, and it is up to the investigator's discretion. Conducting building material analysis on all suspect building materials will minimize the number of materials determined to contain asbestos, but the cost of building material analysis will skyrocket. On the other hand, increasing the number of "deemed determinations" will reduce building material analysis costs, but will increase the number of materials determined to contain asbestos, not only driving up construction costs but also increasing the burden on disposal sites. For this reason, it is important to properly sort materials that are worth determining through building material analysis (especially materials that are likely to be found to be asbestos-free through building material analysis) from materials that can be deemed to be asbestos-free.

[0082] Even if a material is suspected of containing asbestos, a building material analysis is not necessary if the manufacturer's asbestos-containing or asbestos-free certification is obtained. However, if a material lacks manufacturer certification, it cannot be determined to be asbestos-free without a building material analysis. The more asbestos-free a material is, the less likely it is to have an impact on subsequent construction. Therefore, the higher the likelihood of it being asbestos-free, the higher the priority of building material analysis. The presence or absence of asbestos is largely determined by two factors: material quality and age. Regarding material quality, empirical rules based on past analysis results are known. Regarding age, since the majority of raw asbestos was imported, the age can be used to determine the amount of imports. Furthermore, the impact of asbestos-containing materials on removal costs increases with the amount used, and this is especially true for Level 1 and Level 2 materials, which require measures to prevent scattering, such as covering during construction. However, in a legally required asbestos investigation, estimating the removal costs for each asbestos-containing material individually is not practical given the time required, and instead requires a judgment based on intuition, taking into account empirical rules.

[0083] Therefore, in this embodiment, the amount of use 92f, the possibility of asbestos inclusion 92g, and the construction load 92h, which are the evaluation items of the analytical value evaluation (priority evaluation), are qualitatively evaluated on the following five levels. Usage 92f: High (5 points), slightly high (4 points), medium (3 points), slightly low (2 points), low (1 point) Possibility of asbestos content 92g: Low (5 points), slightly low (4 points), medium (3 points), slightly high (2 points), high (1 point) Construction load 92h: High (5 points), slightly high (4 points), medium (3 points), slightly low (2 points), low (1 point)

[0084] The researcher repeatedly performs the operations related to the building existing material name acquisition button 91c and the adoption year to construction load input button 92m for all buildings displayed in the building area 91. Then, when the analytical value evaluation determination button 92n is pressed, the terminal 2 executes the analytical value evaluation calculation process.

[0085] In the analytical value assessment calculation process, the terminal 2 calculates the priority 92i and the determination result 92j based on the adoption year 92c, the usage amount 92f, the possibility of asbestos inclusion 92g, and the construction load 92h. For the adoption year 92c, in consideration of the transition in the import amount of raw asbestos cotton, for example, the period when the import amount is high is set to 1, and since the possibility of asbestos inclusion decreases as the import amount decreases, the adoption year 92c is set as follows according to the import amount. Before 1960: 3 1961-1969: 2 1970 (Showa 45) - 1991 (Heisei 3): 1 ·1992-1998:2 ·1999~20063 Unknown age: 3 (highest score considering risk)

[0086] For example, the terminal 2 multiplies all of the values ​​for the adoption year 92c, the usage amount 92f, the asbestos content possibility 92g, and the construction load 92h to arrive at a comprehensive evaluation score (minimum 1 point to maximum 375 points). The terminal 2 then compares the comprehensive evaluation score with a preset threshold, and if the comprehensive evaluation score is equal to or greater than the threshold, the judgment result 92j is set to "analysis judgment recommended," and if the comprehensive evaluation score is less than the threshold, the judgment result 92j is set to "deemed judgment recommended." The threshold can be set arbitrarily, for example, within a range of approximately 20 to 50 points. The terminal 2 also ranks the priorities 92i in descending order of comprehensive evaluation score. The terminal 2 then displays the calculation results in the priorities 92i and judgment results 92j in the analysis judgment check table area 92.

[0087] For example, in the data for the existing material name 92a in the second row of the analysis judgment check table area 92, "porcelain tile adhesive," the usage amount 92f is "slightly low" (2 points), the possibility of asbestos inclusion 92g is "low" (5 points), the construction load 92h is "slightly low" (2 points), and the adoption year 92c is "S55" (1 point), so the terminal 2 calculates the overall evaluation score as 2 x 5 x 2 x 1 = 20 points, and if the preset threshold is 20 points, the judgment result 92j is "analysis judgment recommended."

[0088] When the analysis sample number input button 92o is pressed, the terminal 2 allows and accepts input of the analysis implementation 92k and sample number 92l. The investigator, referring to the priority 92i and judgment result 92j, checks the analysis implementation 92k box for the material for which building material analysis will actually be performed, and enters the sample number 92l. When entering the sample number 92l, the investigator assigns the same sample number to materials for which stratified analysis will be performed as a set, including finishing materials and base materials. There are no particular rules for how the numbers are assigned, but it is recommended to assign the numbers in order from the highest level 92e, 1, to sample 1, sample 2, ...

[0089] When the registration button 92p is pressed, the terminal 2 transmits the input data to the server 3. The server 3 automatically assigns a material identification number 45c and stores the data received from the terminal 2 in the analysis determination checklist table 45. This determines the analysis determination content.

[0090] <Building material analysis support means 35> The building material analysis support means 35 supports the determination of the collection location for building material analysis samples, and also creates print data for collection labels to be affixed to the sample collection bags. For samples that will undergo stratified analysis of the finishing and base materials of materials, the building material analysis support means 35 creates print data that includes the names of both the finishing and base materials. This makes it possible to clearly indicate the materials that will be the subject of stratified analysis, and prevents mistakes in the collection method.

[0091] The following describes the details of the building material analysis support means 35. When the analysis sample number import button 62k on the details table screen 62 is pressed, the terminal 2 sends an analysis sample number acquisition request to the server 3. The server 3 acquires the sample number 45o from the analysis determination checklist table 45 and sends it to the terminal 2. The terminal 2 displays the data received from the server 3 in the sample number 61p on the details table screen 60.

[0092] Furthermore, when the sample collection list creation button 62l is pressed, the terminal 2 creates a sample collection list file in spreadsheet software and displays it on the display unit 15. FIG. 14 shows an example of a sample collection list file 100. The sample collection list file 100 includes fields such as location 101a, No. 101b, room (location) name 101c, part 101d, consistency check 101e, existing material name 101f, notice, confirmation, and judgment items 101g, sample number 101h, and collection number 101i. The data from location 101a to sample number 101h are set when the terminal 2 creates the file. The terminal 2 inserts blank lines between different sample numbers 101h to visualize a list of the locations where each material is used. In addition, for materials selected on the premise of performing stratified analysis of the finishing material and the base material as a set, terminal 2 alternately sets the finishing material and the base material for each part 101d, as in the example shown in Figure 14 where sample number 101h is "4."

[0093] As a rule, samples are taken from at least three locations per material. The researcher determines the first, second, etc. sampling locations, taking into account the range of use of the material, and enters the numbers (1), (2), etc. in the sampling number 101i. For example, in cases where the same material is used over a wide area, such as on a roof, the researcher should spread out the sampling locations as much as possible. Furthermore, for materials to be analyzed by stratification, the researcher should enter the same number in each row for the finishing material and the base material, as in the example shown in Figure 14 where sample number 101h is "4."

[0094] When the sample collection number import button 62m on the detail table screen 62 is pressed, the terminal 2 acquires the collection number from the sample collection list file 100, displays it in the collection number 61q on the detail table screen 60, and transmits the data to the server 3. The server 3 stores the data received from the terminal 2 in the detail table table 44.

[0095] When the label print button 62n on the details table screen 62 is pressed, the terminal 2 creates label print data based on the sample collection list file 100 and sends it to the printer 5 via the peripheral device I / F unit 16, etc. The printer 5 uses the label print data received from the terminal 2 to print a building material collection label 23b (printed matter) to be affixed to a building material collection container for building material analysis.

[0096] FIG. 15 is an example of label print data 110. The label print data 110 contains data for eight labels 111a to 111h on one page. Each label 111a to 111h contains a building name 112, a sample number 113, a collection location 114, and a material name 115. Samples are collected from three or more locations for each material and placed in small bags, but to prevent asbestos leakage after collection, these three small bags are required to be combined into one large bag for double protection. In the example shown in FIG. 15, labels 111a to 111d are for sample number "1," and labels 111e to 111h are for sample number "2." Terminal 2 leaves the collection location 114 of labels 111a and 111e for large bags blank, and adds collection numbers (1), (2), and (3), such as "sprayed rock wool (1)," to the material name 115 of labels 111b to 111d and 111f to 111h for small bags to create label print data 110. This allows samples to be collected while checking the label display, preventing mistakes in collection locations and supporting safety measures for double packaging.

[0097] In addition, when terminal 2 acquires information from the sample collection list file 100 and creates label print data 110, it checks whether data exists with the same sample number 101h and collection number 101i. If data with the same sample number 101h and collection number 101i exists, terminal 2 determines that the data is a pair of a finishing material and a base material to be subjected to stratified analysis, and creates label print data 110 by including the names of both the finishing material and the base material in the material name 115. Labels 111e-111h in Figure 15 represent a pair of the finishing material "vinyl floor sheet" and the base material "vinyl floor sheet adhesive" to be subjected to stratified analysis, and the material name 115 includes both names: "vinyl floor sheet / vinyl floor sheet adhesive." This clearly identifies the materials to be subjected to stratified analysis and prevents mistakes in the collection method. After collecting the samples, the investigator sends the labeled containers along with a request form to the analysis institution. The investigator also takes photographs when collecting the samples.

[0098] <Result judgment support means 36> When the result determination support means 36 receives an instruction to acquire supporting document information in the result determination performed after the visual inspection to determine whether or not the material contains asbestos, if the sample number has not been entered and there is no consistency, it searches whether the newly entered material name is present in the written inspection information, and if present, displays the supporting document information related to the written inspection information with the same material name. This prevents discrepancies from occurring between the selection of supporting documents for materials identified in the visual inspection and the selection of supporting documents in the written inspection.

[0099] The result determination support means 36 will be described in detail below. When the result determination table creation button 62o on the details table screen 60 is pressed, the terminal 2 displays a result determination screen on the display unit 15. Figures 16 and 17 are examples of the result determination screen 120. Since the result determination screen 120 is long horizontally, Figure 16 shows the left portion, and Figure 17 shows the right portion. The result determination screen 120 is made up of a building area 121, a result determination area 122, and an attachment area 123. This result determination screen 120 is used for the purpose of determining the final results of the asbestos investigation.

[0100] In the building area 121, a building name 121b is displayed for each No. 121a. When one of the rows is selected with the cursor and the Get Building Document and Visual Inspection Information button 121c is pressed, the terminal 2 sends a request to obtain building document and visual inspection information to the server 3 along with information identifying the selected building. The server 3 searches the detailed table 44 based on the information received from the terminal 2 and obtains the necessary information. Since the detailed table 44 also contains information on the document inspection (Document_Material Name 44h, Document_Basis for Judgment 44n, Document_Attachment Number 44o), the server 3 obtains information on both the document inspection and the visual inspection from the detailed table 44. The server 3 then transmits the acquired information to the terminal 2, and the terminal 2 displays the data received from the server 3 in the result determination area 122 in the fields of the name of the material for the written survey 122a, the basis for the judgment for the written survey 122b, the attachments for the written survey 122c, the consistency confirmation 122d, the name of the material for the visual survey 122e, the items to be noticed, confirmed, and judged 122f, and the sample number 122g.

[0101] Next, when the determination basis material acquisition button 122n is pressed, terminal 2 transmits a second determination basis material acquisition request to server 3 along with the data displayed in result determination area 122, and server 3 executes second basis material information acquisition processing. Figure 18 is a flowchart showing the flow of the second basis material information acquisition processing. Server 3 reads data received from terminal 2 one by one and acquires basis material information in accordance with the flowchart in Figure 18.

[0102] 18, the server 3 reads the first data item received from the terminal 2 (step S21) and checks whether or not a sample number is included (step S22). If a sample number is included (Yes in step S22), the server 3 determines the investigation result determination basis 122h to be "building material analysis result" and the investigation result attachment 122j to be "analysis report" (step S23), and proceeds to step S29. For example, in the second line of the result determination area 122 in FIG. 16, "3" is displayed in the sample number 122g, so the investigation result determination basis 122h is "building material analysis result" and the investigation result attachment 122j is "analysis report."

[0103] If there is no sample number (No in step S22), the server 3 checks whether the consistency check is "Yes" (i.e., whether the material name in the written inspection matches the material confirmed in the visual inspection) (step S24). If the consistency check is "Yes" (Yes in step S24), the server 3 copies the document information from the written inspection (i.e., the document inspection decision basis 122b and the document inspection attachment 122c) and sets them as the investigation result decision basis 122h and the investigation result attachment 122j (step S25). For example, in the first row of the result determination area 122 in FIG. 16, there is no sample number 122g and the consistency check 122d is "Yes," so the investigation result decision basis 122h and the attachment 122j are "Association document" and "Attachment 4," just like the document inspection decision basis 122b and attachment 122c.

[0104] If the consistency check is not "Yes" (No in step S24), the server 3 checks whether the data received from the terminal 2 contains information on a written investigation of a material name that matches the material name 122a newly identified in the visual investigation (step S26). If information on a written investigation of the same material name is found (Yes in step S26), the server 3 copies the document information from the written investigation of the same material name (i.e., document investigation basis 122b and document investigation attachment 122c) and sets them as the investigation result basis 122h and the investigation result attachment 122j (step S27). For example, the fourth line of the result determination area 122 in FIG. 16 does not contain the sample number 122g, and the consistency check 122d is not "Yes," so the investigation result basis 122h and attachment 122j are "Association document" and "Attachment 4," respectively, just like the document investigation basis 122b and attachment 122c in the first line, which have the same material name "clinker tile."

[0105] If there is no document investigation information for the same material name (No in step S26), the server 3 executes the first determination basis material acquisition process for the specific material (step S28). That is, the server 3 executes the first determination basis material acquisition process from step S2 to step S8 in FIG. 12 for the specific material.

[0106] Next, the server 3 checks whether processing of all data received from the terminal 2 has been completed (step S29). If not (No in step S29), the server 3 reads the next data (step S30) and repeats the process from step S22. If processing has been completed (Yes in step S29), the server 3 terminates the second evidence document information acquisition process. The server 3 then transmits evidence document information corresponding to each visually inspected material name 122a to the terminal 2, and the terminal 2 displays the data received from the server 3 in the investigation result determination basis 122h, investigation result evidence document identification number 122i, and investigation result attachment 122j. If there is a visually inspected material name 122e for which there is no corresponding evidence document, the terminal 2 displays a message urging new registration of evidence document, such as "There is no corresponding evidence document for material name XX, so please register it in the evidence document master."

[0107] When a specific row in the result determination area 122 is selected with the cursor, the terminal 2 transmits a request for obtaining decision basis materials to the server 3 along with information identifying the specific material. The server 3 executes a first decision basis material acquisition process for the specific material. That is, the server 3 executes the first decision basis material acquisition process from step S2 to step S8 of FIG. 12 for the specific material. If there are multiple search results, the server 3 assigns display priority numbers to the results in descending order of the number of adoptions 41p in the basis material master table 41, and transmits the source name 41d, title 41e, and decision basis 41l to the terminal 2. The terminal 2 displays the data received from the server 3 in the display priority 123a, source name 123b, title 123c, and decision basis 123d of the attachment area 123 in order of display priority number.

[0108] When a line indicating a specific attachment in the attachment area 123 is selected with the cursor and the change attachment button 123f is pressed, the terminal 2 links information about this specific attachment to the data in the line selected with the cursor in the result determination area 122, and changes the displayed contents of the investigation result judgment basis 122h and the evidence document identification number 122i. When a line indicating a specific attachment in the attachment area 123 is selected with the cursor and the display attachment button 123e is pressed, the terminal 2 retrieves the attachment from the server 3 and displays it in a pop-up, allowing the researcher to check the contents of the attachment. When the edit operation button 122o is pressed, the terminal 2 displays the items from the investigation result judgment basis 122h to the level 122m in an editable format and accepts input.

[0109] The investigator checks the supporting document information displayed by the system, changes it as necessary, and inputs a determination of "yes" or "no" in asbestos presence / absence 122k based on the analysis report for materials that have undergone building material analysis, and based on the supporting documents for other materials. The investigator also inputs asbestos type 122l and level 122m for materials where asbestos presence / absence 122k is "yes". On the other hand, when "no" is input into asbestos presence / absence 122k, terminal 2 does not allow input of asbestos type 122l and level 122m, and displays "-".

[0110] The researcher repeatedly performs the operations related to the judgment evidence document acquisition button 122n and the editing operation button 122o for all buildings displayed in the building area 121. Then, when the all-building attachment number assignment button 122p is pressed, the terminal 2 assigns a serial number that uniquely identifies the attachment to the evidence document identification number 122i displayed in the result determination area 122 (however, if the evidence document identification numbers are the same, the same serial number is assigned), and displays it in the attachment 122j. Then, when the registration button 122q is pressed, the terminal 2 transmits the input data to the server 3. The server 3 automatically assigns a detailed number 44c and stores the data received from the terminal 2 in the detail table 44. Furthermore, the server 3 counts up the number of adoptions of the evidence document adopted this time, by adding 1 to the adoption count 41p in the evidence document master table 41 related to the evidence document identification number. This confirms the content of the result determination.

[0111] Returning to the explanation of Figures 8 and 9, when the result determination table import button 62p is pressed, the terminal 2 sends a result determination information acquisition request to the server 3. The server 3 acquires data from the result determination table table 43 and sends it to the terminal 2. The terminal 2 displays the data received from the server 3 in the details table screen 60 in the fields of the investigation result determination basis 61r, investigation result attachments 61s, asbestos presence / absence 61t, asbestos type 61u, and level 61v.

[0112] <Photo organization support tool 37> The photo organization support means 37 displays a photo mount on which photos taken during visual inspections are pasted and accepts the input of photo images. The photo organization support means 37 also creates a description including the location where the photo was taken (e.g., survey location, sample collection location, etc.) according to predetermined conditions and displays the description on the photo mount. This saves the effort of inputting photo descriptions and prevents necessary photos from being left out of organization.

[0113] The photo organization support means 37 will be described in detail below. FIG. 19 shows an example of a photo organization screen 130. The photo organization screen 130 is configured with a photo mount area 131, an image folder display button 141, a register button 142, a close button 143, and the like. The photo mount area 131 includes three small areas 132a to 132c in the left half and three small areas 132d to 132f in the right half, for a total of six small areas 132a to 132f, with page navigation buttons 139 and 140 located in the upper left and upper right corners. Hereinafter, the small areas 132a to 132f will be collectively referred to as "small area 132." Each small area 132 includes an image display area 133, an image pasting area 134, a description area 135, a clear button 136, a delete button 137, and an insert button 138.

[0114] When the terminal 2 receives an instruction to create a photo mount from the researcher via the input unit 14, it sends a request to obtain survey location information to the server 3. The server 3 obtains the survey location information (= location 44d, No. 44e, room (location) name 44f) from the detailed table 44 and sends it to the terminal 2. The terminal 2 creates the required number of small area data based on the survey location information received from the server 3, and creates explanatory data to be displayed in the explanatory text area 135 for each small area data. To create this explanatory text data, the terminal 2 stores in advance the number of photos for each room (location) and predetermined explanatory text creation conditions. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 19, the number of photos for each room (location) is set to three. Terminal 2 creates small area data equal to "total number of rooms (locations) x 3," and for each small area data description, synthesizes the text data in the first line from the information on location 44d, No. 44e, and room (location) name 44f. For the text data in the second line, if the small area data is an interior room of a building, it synthesizes "interior" with one of (1), (2), or (3), and if the small area data is an exterior location of a building, it synthesizes "exterior" with one of (1), (2), or (3). For example, in the description area 135 of the upper left small area 132a shown in Figure 19, "Investigation location: 1F No. 1 Entrance" is displayed in the first line, and "Interior (1)" is displayed in the second line.

[0115] Furthermore, the terminal 2 creates the necessary number of small area data for photos of samples taken for building material analysis, as well as for photos of the current state for each room (location), and creates explanatory data to be displayed in the explanatory text area 135 for each small area data according to predetermined explanatory text creation conditions. The terminal 2 sends a request to obtain sample collection location information to the server 3. The server 3 extracts data with sample number 44s from the detailed table 44, obtains sample collection location information (= location 44d, No. 44e, room (location) name 44f, existing material name 44q, sample number 44s, collection number 44t), and sends it to the terminal 2. Terminal 2 creates small area data equal to "number of samples (= maximum value of sample number 44s) x number of samples taken per sample (= 3) x predetermined number of photos (for example, 3)", and for the description of each small area data, the text data on the first line is synthesized from information on location 44d, No. 44e, and room (location) name 44f, and the text data on the second line is synthesized from information on the existing material name, sample number, and collection number. Note that for materials to be subjected to stratified analysis, small area data is created with finishing materials and base materials as one set. For example, if the sample number 101h in the sample collection list file 100 shown in Figure 14 is "4", the terminal 2 creates three small area data with the text data on the first and second lines as "Collection location: 1F No. 2 Hall" + "Vinyl floor sheet / vinyl floor sheet adhesive Sample number 4 Collection number (1)", "Collection location: 1F No. 2 Hall" + "Vinyl floor sheet / vinyl floor sheet adhesive Sample number 4 Collection number (2)", and "Collection location: 2F No. 5 Hallway" + "Vinyl floor sheet / vinyl floor sheet adhesive Sample number 4 Collection number (3)".

[0116] When the image folder display button 141 is pressed, the terminal 2 displays the image folder (not shown) in which the image is saved. The researcher drags and drops the desired image from the image folder into the image pasting area 134 of the desired small area 132. The terminal 2 links the dragged and dropped image to the small area data and displays a thumbnail image in the image display area 133. If the researcher wants to paste the image again, the researcher presses the clear button 136. When the clear button 136 is pressed, the terminal 2 releases the link between the small area data and the image and cancels the display of the thumbnail image in the image display area 133.

[0117] The number of photos per room (location) is arbitrary, so it is also possible to delete or insert small areas 132 for each room (location). If the researcher wants to delete a small area 132 for a room (location), he or she presses the delete button 137. When the delete button 137 is pressed, the terminal 2 cancels the display of that small area 132 and deletes the small area data related to that small area 132. Furthermore, if the researcher wants to add a small area 132 for a room (location), he or she presses the insert button 138. When the insert button 138 is pressed, the terminal 2 copies the description data related to that small area 132 to create new small area data, inserts the new small area 132, and displays it in the photo mount area 131.

[0118] When the registration button 142 is pressed, the terminal 2 transmits the data of the photo mount area 131 to the server 3. The server 3 stores the data received from the terminal 2 as data of the photo mount 22l.

[0119] <Report output means 38> The report output means 38 generates print data for a report based on various data related to the asbestos investigation and transmits it to the printing device 5.

[0120] The following describes the details of the report output means 38. Fig. 20 is an example of a report print screen 150. The report print screen 150 is made up of a report number display area 151a, a requester name display area 151b, an entrustment name display area 151c, a printer selection area 151d, an issue date input area 151e, a number of copies input area 151f, a print list display area 152, a print target selection area 153, a batch selection button 154, a batch cancel button 155, an execute button 156, a cancel button 157, etc.

[0121] The documents displayed in the print list display area 152 are explained below. The survey summary document includes the "Cover Page / Table of Contents," the "List of Surveyed Properties and Survey Conditions," and the "Certificate of Qualification (Copy)" indicating the surveyor's qualifications. The report documents for each building include the "Inside Cover Page," the "Summary of Survey Results / Analysis Results," the "Observations," and the "List of Asbestos-Containing Building Materials Locations," which lists the locations of materials (building materials) determined to contain asbestos. The survey details document for each building includes the "Inside Cover Page" and the "Asbestos Survey Details Table," which displays the data displayed on the details table screen 60. The drawings document for each building includes the "Inside Cover Page" and the "Survey Drawings" which, as needed, indicate the location of asbestos materials using numbered floor plans, elevations, etc. The photograph documents for each building include the "Inside Cover Page" and the "Survey Photo Album," which displays the photo mounts organized on the photo organization screen 130. The attached documents include the "Inside Cover Page" and the "Attached Documents Collection," which lists the attached documents sorted by attachment number and indicates which materials were used.

[0122] When one of the rows in the print list display area 152 is clicked, the terminal 2 sets the print target selection area 153 for that row to "O". When the batch selection button 154 is pressed, the terminal 2 sets the print target selection area 153 for all documents to "O". When the batch release button 155 is pressed, the terminal 2 releases the "O" in the print target selection area 153 for all documents. When the execute button 156 is pressed, the terminal 2 sends the print data of the documents whose print target selection area 153 is set to "O" to the printing device 5. The printing device 5 prints the print data received from the terminal 2.

[0123] As described above, the asbestos investigation support system 1 can support appropriate and economically rational decisions without relying on the investigator's knowledge or judgment. In addition, the asbestos investigation support system 1 can support the efficient organization of vast amounts of material, significantly reducing the burden on the investigator.

[0124] While the preferred embodiments of the asbestos investigation support system and the like according to the present invention have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings, the present invention is not limited to such examples. It is clear that a person skilled in the art can conceive of various modifications or alterations within the scope of the technical ideas disclosed in this application, and it is understood that such modifications also fall within the technical scope of the present invention.
