That is, the upper surface of the horizontal skeleton portion S _H, proprietary square opposite girders 2 so as to surround the housing part 1 is upwardly formed, as the inside of the inverse girders 2 which are multiple reverse joists 3 intersect with each other The reverse beam 3 has a height slightly lower than that of the reverse beam 2.

Each of the exclusive housing parts 1 is defined by columns 4, an outer wall 5 and an inner wall 6 which constitute a vertical skeleton part S _V , and a passage 7 is bulged outside one outer wall 5 and the other outer wall. On the outside of 5, a balcony 8 having a handrail 9 is extended.

On the large and small reverse beams 2 and 3 of the horizontal skeleton portion S _H , a plurality of large pulls 10 are bridge-supported in parallel with each other, and a floor material 11 is laid on these large pulls 10. And floor material 1
An underfloor storage space 12 surrounded by the floor material 11 and the horizontal frame portion S _H is defined below 1. Also the flat lower surface of the horizontal skeleton portion S _H to be a ceiling surface proprietary housing part 1 on the floor material 11, the ceiling member 14 is stretched.

As will be apparent with reference to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 together, a unit-type housing unit 1 is provided in the exclusive housing part 1 above the one-story underfloor storage space 12 ₁ defined by the reverse beam 2 and the reverse beam 3. A bathroom 17, a washroom 18, a dressing room 19 and the like are provided. Bathroom 17 of unitary is supported by a plurality of bundles 15 on the upper surface of the horizontal skeleton portion S _H, the same height as the flooring 11 as a height of the washing field 20 bather not stumble by step is formed Is set to. The lower half of the bathtub 21 that is integrally connected to the washroom 20 is lower than the washroom 20, and therefore the lower half of the bathtub 21 is the underfloor storage space 12
Stored in ₁ . Further, the height of the upper edge 21 ₁ of the bathtub 21 is lowered by accommodating the lower half of the bathtub 21 in the underfloor storage space 12 ₁ and is lower than the height of the bather's knees standing in the washroom 20 (for example, , The height from the washing room 20 to about 30 cm to 50 cm).

At one end of the bathtub 21 in the longitudinal direction, the upper edge 2 is formed.
