New Year's Eve 2024—Thank you so much for another great year!!

2024/12/31

Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

The last day of 2024.

It's New Year's Eve.

2024, the Year of the Dragon

The Noto Earthquake struck right at the start of 2024!

It was a whirlwind of a year.

 

How was your year?

I think this has been the hardest year of my life so far.

 

After all, it was a year without a job... lol

It really is better to be busy, isn't it?

The fear of having nothing to do is unbearable.

 

We also announced a construction method called "drainage rock bolts."

We have also opened a Hamamatsu branch office.

I don't know what next year will bring, but I plan to continue doing what I can, and doing it thoroughly.

 

I hope each of you will do your best to do what you can. I’m rooting for you.

I also hope we can work together whenever possible.

Next year, I hope to work even more closely with our general contractor.

 

We look forward to your continued support next year.

 

See you later.

Hello, everyone. I’m Enta. I’ve been driving for about three hours, thinking to myself, “Isn’t the distance we slope workers travel just crazy?” so I figured I’d write about it lol. Our sense of distance is out of sync with the rest of the world. Generally speaking, a one-hour commute by car…

Why Do Cracks Form in Mortar? | Examining the Causes of Cracks in Formwork and Sprayed Mortar from the Perspectives of Mix Design and Curing

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I came across a job site where there were fine cracks in the joints of the retaining wall. A layperson who was with me (not a slope contractor) asked, “Is this okay?” I explained the reasons on the spot, but later I thought, “If I summarize this on my blog, people will understand…”

Since I needed them on the job, I built two iPhone apps myself.

Hello, this is Director Jou. I provide on-site support for civil engineering projects in Hyogo while sharing content on YouTube about the use of ICT at construction sites. This time, rather than discussing construction methods or equipment, this is more of a record of my desperate attempts. There was something I really wanted on site, but I couldn’t find it anywhere…

The Correct Way to Install Formwork Is Level (Horizontal) | Why Aligning It with the Road Grade Will Make Reinforcement Installation a Nightmare

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. When I’m driving on the highway, I can’t help but keep looking at the road embankments—it’s an occupational hazard, isn’t it? lol The other day, while I was on the road, I saw a retaining wall that sloped diagonally to match the road’s gradient. Just as I thought, “Oh, that’s to match the gradient,” I also wondered, “What if there were rebar installers working on this…”

What Is Set Loss? | How Tension Stabilization of Ground Anchors Reduces Load and On-Site Countermeasures

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Young engineers often ask me, “Is set loss really necessary?” Come to think of it, even though the term “set loss” is thrown around all the time on job sites, there are actually a lot of people who’ve never had it properly explained to them. Back in the day, when I was installing ground anchors…
