Hello, everyone. This is Enta. At a water collection and drainage boring site, you’re bound to run into one of these four issues: ① Perforated pipe getting pulled up along with the borehole; ② Jamming; ③ The borehole casing won’t go in due to ground collapse; ④ The slurry doesn’t come back up. It’s one of those moments on site where you think, “Ah, so it’s this one this time, huh? lol”…

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. The other day, I went to check out a site where we had previously installed drainage boreholes. The project was a private-sector job where part of the slope had already collapsed, and the client wanted to prevent further collapse. There was no stonework or anything like that—it was just a bare hillside. At the top…

I was planning to go for a run in the mountains this weekend, but it rained the day before. I found tracks like these along the mountain ridge. It rained…

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. The other day, I wrote about how dewatering boreholes and dewatering rock bolts are effective in reducing soil pressure during heavy rain. By drilling temporary dewatering boreholes, we can prevent landslides in advance and provide ongoing protection against them! The cause of the embankment collapse in Noto was…
