Boost Your Sleep Quality | Health Management
Hello, everyone. It’s Enta here. I’ve been sleeping fine lately, but I still feel a little sluggish, so I bought this. It’s a supplement made by a major company! Well, to be honest, I actually really like supplements lol. I’m going to keep trying things for three months, and if they don’t work, I’ll just keep cutting them out. Human experimentation…

Learn How to Prevent Heat Stroke! On-the-Job Knowledge for Recognizing Symptoms in Colleagues and Taking Action
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. It’s about time for the peak of heatstroke season! Are you taking any precautions? Air-conditioned clothing is an option, too. (It’s all the rage these days.) We got some a few years ago, but people with strong preconceptions just refuse to use it, saying they can’t use something like that, and it ended up sitting unused…
How Site Supervisors Should Take Photos (Part 2) | Practical Techniques
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Since my photography tips were well-received (by a very small number of people, lol), I thought I’d write about the absolute basics of photo management. Everyone has their own unique style when it comes to photography, so there’s a good chance these tips won’t work for everyone. However, just because they don’t work for you doesn’t mean you should dismiss them…
Slope Stabilization Work That Cannot Be Seen | Underground Section
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I went out to check on the site the other day. Well, it’s a slope we’re scheduled to start work on next month, but more than that, I found something incredibly interesting!!

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I’d like to introduce a chemical that solidifies from the inside to prevent internal pressure from building up. The chemical I’ve been using nonstop for waterproofing lately is Hi-Cell OH-9X. By the way, I hear “OH” is pronounced “Oh-ha” lol. As for how this works…
Water Stopping (Part 1) | Technical Explanation
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Do you think it’s easy to shut off a water supply that’s about eight times the normal flow rate? If you think about it normally, you’d probably say it’s difficult, right? And that’s without using any chemicals or anything. I feel a little bad that I’ve been posting nothing but water shutoff topics lately, but recently…
Could You Become a Waterproofing Specialist? | Diversification in the Slope Stabilization Industry
Hello, everyone. It’s Enta here. I’ve gotten pretty used to water stoppage now, lol. Since we’re short-staffed at Enta, I’m also doing construction management on-site, and I’m handling the water stoppage right behind the drilling crew. I’ve gotten pretty used to it. I’m starting to be able to stop the water even when it’s gushing out like this…
Quotes Exceeding Market Rates | Pricing
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Lately, I’ve been getting a lot of work referred to us by our general contractor, but it’s actually kind of a hassle, lol. The reason is that the work comes our way because the general contractor’s site supervisor isn’t available, but most of these are small jobs.
