Hello, everyone.
This is Enta.
The other day, I visited a construction site where our company is currently working.
It's just a 10-minute ride on the Monorack (monorail) to the site!
A long time ago, when I worked on a job site at Mount Fuji, there was a hellish site where it took an hour just to get to the site via monorail—this is a breeze compared to that, but even so, 10 minutes these days is still a bit of a hassle.
And the site beyond that is
It’s the kind of work that really makes you say, “Now that’s what a slope contractor does!”A sheer cliff!
One of those totally crazy scenes that happens once every few years lol
Extremely overhanging with plenty of falling rocks!
To be honest, jobs like this just aren't profitable—they're a lot of work and a real hassle, aren't they?
Most slope contractors would probably think that, lol.
Construction management is also quite challenging. Recently, it’s become possible to measure area using drones, so even if there’s a slight margin of error in that regard, drones are sufficient when safety is the priority.
When you think about it, it’s a breeze—even if there’s a difference of just a few square meters at a site like this, you don’t have to survey it.
However, for this slope as well, we’ll ultimately end up using a construction method that makes people say, “Wait, that’s the method they’re using!?”
On this sheer cliff...
I thought, "This construction method doesn't take the workers at all into account—nobody benefits from it," lol.
It’s precisely on sites like this that I’d like them to listen to the contractors’ input and ensure consistency between the design and the actual site conditions, wouldn’t you agree?
I think that, generally speaking, slopes tend to look similar no matter who designs or builds them.
However, in harsh environments like this, we also have to prioritize on-site workability...
As a result, people might end up wondering, “Does this kind of work even make sense in a place like this?”
Even our Vietnamese guy was totally freaked out, lol.
The thing to watch out for at a site like this is falling rocks.
I've told them to be very careful about that when they're working.
If a rock falls right next to your ear,Boom!It makes a sound like that.
Please be very careful at work, everyone!
See you later.
