I found this document on the history of roads in Japan. You can change the chapter number to see other chapters:

No detail of construction but does say that in 1956, 77% of national highways were not paved.

Hi,
I have watched a documentary on Hiroshima, the bridges and government buildings where made of concrete with iron supports, rural houses where made in a traditional way using wood and paper. Although this is 1945, I am sure that if they were concrete then they where concrete in 1946.
I hope this is helpful,

Regards, and seasons greetings
