New! Enta's Slope Management Schoolis an information site dedicated to slope construction, by slope construction professionals, and for slope construction professionals.

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Take a look at this. “Suddenly, there was an explosion…” The car overturned amid a shower of sparks! A dangerous accident on the highway—was a “tire blowout” the cause? That’s actually my car! The lesson to be learned from this accident is the importance of always wearing your seatbelt in the back seat…

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. It’s been pretty hot lately, hasn’t it? I just went from Tokyo to Shizuoka the other day. It was a scorcher, and I was drenched in sweat!! I’d love for you to hop on the Shinkansen sometime this fall, lol. But anyway… As for what constitutes an “appropriate” flow rate, basically it just means staying within the specified range…

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Here’s a follow-up to the Wakita Jumbo Fair from the other day. This is a 10-metric-ton-class rough-terrain hauler. How much do you think this costs? The list price is roughly 60 million, and the selling price is roughly half that. Well, I guess it depends on the company and the scale of the deal…

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. This past Friday and Saturday, there was an event called the Wakita Jumbo Fair. I went first thing Friday morning. I found something there that made me think, “This is great!” so I’d like to share it with you ^^ Here it is! (The focus is a bit off, lol) &nbsp…

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. When people ask, “What skill training and special education certifications do you need to work in slope construction?” I’ll list the ones that are absolutely essential. Keep in mind that these certifications are from the perspective of a construction worker, not a construction manager. I’ll mark the certifications that are absolutely essential with an asterisk (*). Let’s get started…

Hello, everyone. It’s Enta here. The other day, while I was at a meeting, I took a peek inside a drainage pipe right next to the venue lol. You rarely—or rather, you never really get to see the inside after construction is done, right? lol. When I peered inside, I was like, “Whoa!” so I thought I’d write about it. The rocks inside are surprisingly beautiful…

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. This post is on a completely different topic from slope stabilization, but I think you’ll find it quite eye-opening! For this post, I asked professionals in the construction industry—including contractors specializing in plumbing, carpentry, plastering, landscaping, materials manufacturers, architects, electricians, and others—for their tips on building a house. Decide…

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. It’s been a while since it last rained, hasn’t it? Every time it rains, the temperature drops a little bit... It’s starting to feel like a nice season, isn’t it? ^^ But anyway... Since my previous post on photography techniques was well-received (by a very small number of people, lol), I thought I’d write about the absolute basics of photo management...

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. It looks like bankruptcies in the construction industry are accelerating rapidly! There’s no end in sight to construction company bankruptcies, which are occurring at the highest rate in the past five years. Material costs have skyrocketed during the period between winning a contract and starting construction! It seems many companies are going bankrupt because they can’t keep up with these rising costs. In our case, as a first-tier subcontractor, materials…
