During earthquakes, most of people injuries are caused by falling furniture. In this research, we explore a method to reduce falling of furniture for storage by using furniture elements made by compressed elastic Japanese cedar. In this paper, in order to secure the strength as a furniture element, test pieces were made by combining compressed elastic Japanese cedar with softwood and hardwood. Furthermore, a vibration test was carried out to clarify the properties against shaking. As a result, it was confirmed that test pieces that use a combination with Japanese cedar, obtained improved bending and compressive strength, as well as anti-vibration effect.
