Cement Slurry Pressure Test (Part 7) | Compatibility with Reverse-Flow Construction
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. The first round of reverse-winding work wrapped up the other day. The next session is next weekend. But we still have three more rounds to go... And on top of that, we have to move the plant... Ugh—this is rough lol. Reverse-winding work is really tough! But anyway...
Tips for Site Conditions II | How to Identify Areas Prone to Collapse
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Here in Aichi Prefecture, we’ve been having heavy rain in various areas for the past few days. The area where I live is relatively—well, there aren’t any mountains here. So there’s no risk of landslides. If the area behind your house is designated as a steep slope zone, you should definitely be extra careful. Landslides…
Cement Slurry Pressure Test (Part 6, Revisited) | Construction Site in 35-Degree Heat Wave
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. It’s already unbearably hot on set. We started shooting at 11:30 a.m., and it’s already 35 degrees!!! In this heat, my head starts to feel foggy after just half a day. It’s hell... We’re also short-staffed, so things aren’t running smoothly on set. I think it started last week...
Cement Slurry Pressure Test (Part 5, Revisited) | Turntable Construction
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I tried out the turntable for anchor tendons I was working on last time. Even with a 30-meter-class anchor tendon on it, it spins smoothly, making insertion much easier. I made the lower part—which tends to rust easily—out of stainless steel, and each one can handle up to 500 kg…
Cement Slurry Pressure Test (Part 4, Revisited) | Adjusting a Semi-Automatic Welding Machine
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. For the past few days, I’ve been making a wire mesh basket to hold the cement slurry after mixing it in the mixer. I’m using 3mm angle iron, but it’s difficult to adjust the semi-automatic welder. If the current is too strong, the metal melts; if it’s too weak, the weld isn’t secure…
Pressurized Cement Slurry Test (Part 3, Revisited) | Typhoons and Continuing Experiments
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. A typhoon is coming. People from Okinawa, the islands, Kagoshima, and Miyazaki, in particular, are so used to typhoons that they treat them as just another day. Since typhoons are such a common occurrence, there isn’t much talk about them. Even when other prefectures are making a huge fuss, I’m just like, “Oh, really?”…
Cement Slurry Pressure Test (Part 2, Revisited) | Hardness of Packer Dehydration
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. It’s gotten super hot lately. I keep thinking, “I’ve got to build something to provide shade on the job site ASAP!!” but… I still don’t have the time… I’ll do my best! I’m going to experiment like crazy this year! But anyway, back to the topic at hand: the cement slurry pressure test…
Cement Milk Pressure Test (Part 1, Revisited) | Verification of Strength Tests
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. We’ve been having some steady rain for the past few days! It finally feels like the rainy season. But it’s already July! We’ve reached the halfway point of the year… I’ll do my best in the second half, too! This has nothing to do with the article, but I’ve added our sales offices to the “Access” section of our company website…
Bolt Scale Commercial-Style Promo | Where to Buy a Positioning Error Measuring Device
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Summer is really picking up steam! Every year, I find myself thinking, “I really want to get in shape for summer!” lol. But anyway, Bolt Scale. We’ve been getting a lot of inquiries about Bolt Scale again lately. It’s a sign that things are slowly starting to pick up on-site…
