The purpose of this study is to analyze the structure and form of the Main Izumo-Taisha Shrine to determine the extent of its earthquake-proof nature. The study investigates the essential elements of the materials that went into the structure to determine the role they play in earthquake-proofing the Shrine. The main roof of the shrine of Izumo-Taisha Shrine has been supported by only nine massive support columns for over 253 years with the Shrine having sustained only minimal earthquake damage during this time span. It is believed, therefore, that an analysis of these structural supports sheds light on their importance and role in earthquake-proofing buildings. Central to this support structure is the main and thickest support, the Shinnomi column, which is symmetrically surrounded on the inside of the Shrine by eight other columns. The Shinnomi column plays a key role in maintaining the stability and equilibrium of the overall structure, primarily due to its thickness and strength. The Shinnomi column and the overall structure of the support system of the Izumo-Taisha Shrine reveal important aspects of Edo Period earthquake proofing techniques that may prove of use to earthquake-proofing construction in the future.
