Wasteful Uses of Construction DX
Hello, everyone. It’s Enta here. It’s starting to feel like fall, isn’t it! Finally! It’s still hot, but it’s better than August, lol. This is when the weather really starts to get nice! Let’s get to work! Anyway, the other day I went to do some “tsubushi.” (“Tsubushi” refers to a compressive strength test…
Is a thicker cement slurry more effective?
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. You know how you take test specimens (cement slurry) at job sites, right? Like for ground anchor work, rebar insertion, or piles. There are all kinds of projects, but when you’re making these test specimens, if they’re extremely soft, you just throw them away, right? lol But on the other hand, if they’re on the hard side…
I still think digging with water is the fastest way to dig a hole!
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. These days, drilling is more about using water and air than just water, isn’t it? Water-only drilling used to be the norm. (Water and air is a more recent drilling method.) To clean the inside of the casing, we used to pour water liberally and move the inner rod up and down to flush it out…
Be sure to use high-quality grease for machine repairs and daily maintenance!
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I handed over my on-site duties to a colleague earlier this week, so my two-week stint on-site has come to an end, but now I’m heading to Shizuoka lol. We’re already short-staffed and everyone at the office is struggling to keep up, so it’s really tough, but I’m plowing through the work we’ve taken on lol. Last year was…
In slope stabilization work, the sense of accomplishment from completing a project becomes a source of pride.
皆さんこんにちは。 エンタです。 先日、水抜きボーリング工で100ｍ削孔しましたｗ さすがに100mとなると大台感有りますよね。 まぁ実際の所は結構柔らかかったのでサクサク行けちゃった感じですが、 それでも100mはなんか良い…
Safe Work Spaces on Scaffolding for Rotary Percussion Work
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Let’s say you’re performing skid-type drilling for ground anchor installation or rebar insertion. How wide do you think the scaffolding edges need to be in that case? I’m referring to the scaffolding on both the control panel side and the operator’s side relative to the drilling location. Often, the width of the scaffolding (horizontally)…
I Tried Core Drilling Using the Wireline Sampling Method!
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I’ve been using a new tool for my work since a few days ago. It’s called a Soundscope. Have you heard of it? It’s a stethoscope that lets you listen to the sounds transmitted through metal. With the current “wireline” method, core boring…
Is there a possibility that the invoice system could exacerbate labor shortages?
皆さんこんにちは。 エンタです。 インボイスどうしていますか？ そろそろですよねー 登録される方は、今月中に登録の様です。 先日そう言った話しになって、 我々法面屋はどちらかと言うとそもそもが課税業者ばかりなのであまり関係あり…
Being on-site is definitely the most fun!!! The sense of accomplishment is off the charts!!
皆さんこんにちは。 エンタです。 ここ2週間ほど現場出て技能実習生と過ごしました。 1人はもう5年目のベテラン？の子と、今年は行ったばかりの子。 写真の真ん中は私で、左右は実習生。 5年生になるともう何も言わなく…
