In 2012, George Chubinashvili National Centre, in collaboration with Tokyo Institute of Technology, has continued work on the joint Georgian-Japanese research project that aims at studying the building technique, the structural stability, and the seismological safety of the monuments of Medieval Georgian architecture with the use of state-of-the-art technologies. The project is led by Shiro Sasano, the head of the Department of Built Environment of the Tokyo Institute of Technology. From the Georgian side, the project is coordinated by David Khoshtaria, the head of the Medieval department of the George Chubinashvili National Centre.
From June 26 to July 4, 2012, the third stage of the study was conducted, which included photogrammetric analysis and examining stability of buildings by setting sensors for microtremors. Members of the joint research group from George Chubinashvili National Centre were David Chikhladze, Mariam Gabashvili, George Patashuri, Nino Tsitsishvili, Nato Chitishvili, Tamar Dadiani, Irina Mania, and Eter Edisherashvili. The group has worked in Mtskheta, Tsromi, Ubisa, Samtavisi, Tsinarekhi, Kintsvisi, Shatili, and Mutso.
