Hello, everyone. This is Enta. So far, only about 11 people have signed up for Real Enta’s Slope Management Course, but since we still have about three months left, things are moving along at a leisurely pace lol. Since we’re not including Enta employees in this count, the current minimum number of participants is actually 20 or more. For those who want to sign up, …
As we move forward with digital transformation in the construction industry, aren't there other areas where we could improve efficiency?
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Don’t you ever come across management or construction practices in various prefectures or regional construction bureaus where you wonder, “What’s the point of this?”? The specifications are supposed to follow those of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, but for some reason, there are times when the special specifications say, “Do this and that,” right? In one prefecture, regarding drainage…
When selecting construction equipment, the reference materials are often too outdated, so they frequently don’t suit the current job site.
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I’m sure you’ve seen something like this before. It’s often attached to design calculations, isn’t it? And I imagine designers use this as a basis for their work. But doesn’t it happen quite often that the machine doesn’t actually fit the site? &nb…
It's always best to keep machine parts in stock at the company so we can respond quickly if anything happens!
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. When it gets cold, there tend to be quite a few mechanical issues, don’t they? One thing that happens a lot when it gets cold is electrical system trouble! This happens even when it’s super hot, but it also happens when it’s cold, lol. So, does it happen all the time…? Well, when it’s extremely hot, and extremely…
The construction industry actually has a huge amount of material waste, but people just turn a blind eye to it, don't they?
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. You’re all familiar with the SDGs, right? What do you think about them? Just starting off like this might make it sound like I’m about to criticize them, lol. Well, I’m actually going to talk about just one aspect of the SDGs: in construction projects, we use materials…

Hello, everyone. It’s Enta here. How are you spending your three-day weekend? I’m working as usual, lol. I’m guessing most of you are working as usual too? Well, there’s no point in envying others, so let’s focus on the things we can control. Anyway, moving on—this time, it’s about the revival of Neji-yama…
Reasons Why Construction Often Cannot Be Performed Using the Machinery Specified in the Design (Part 1)
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. It really feels like things are getting back to normal, doesn’t it? ^^ It’s a good feeling. Lately, there have been a lot of projects where the equipment is selected during the design phase. For example, using a small drilling rig on a narrow lot. However, in reality, a small drilling rig isn’t enough to handle the work…
Training Methods for Drilling Machine Operators | Accurate, Repetitive Practice to Improve Quality Through Quantity
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. For the past few days, I’ve been teaching one of the supervisors how to operate a drilling rig. Since each well in this dewatering project is 44 meters deep, we can do a lot of repetitive practice. That’s the best way to improve quickly. Basically, just repeat the same thing over and over. It’s not about quality or theory…
Basic Principles of Landslide Mitigation Measures (Part 4)
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. It’s gotten a lot colder all of a sudden, so I’ve started wearing a neck warmer! (Around my neck.) Starting next week, I plan to start wearing an electric-heated vest! But anyway, this is the final installment in our series on basic landslide prevention measures: “Cutting, Managing, and Stabbing.” Let’s review…
