Hello, everyone.
This is Enta.
Hasn't this weird rain been really bad these past few days?
特に東海地方。
It was pouring rain, so I decided to take some photos lol
The volume of water in the Asukabu River during the latter half of this period was immense, and it continued to rise, eventually reaching about 80 percent of its maximum level.
This is a mountain range where it originally rained a lot and which has an abundance of water. (Suzuka Mountains)
そしてバツグンに綺麗な水でミネラルウォーターになるほどです！
そして、この撮影ポイントから車で５分ほど走ると簡単に分水嶺（ぶんすいれい）を見る事が出来ます。
That's where the river splits into the Mie Prefecture side and the Shiga Prefecture side, isn't it?
I believe that the challenge for us civil engineers is how to manage this water.
Landslides caused by heavy rain can also be visualized as the soil "exploding" under the weight of the water.
It doesn't slide along slowly. It hits with a thud in an instant.
山の水を抜くだけで防げる災害って実はイッパイ有るって事を知って欲しいですねー。
Lately, I’ve even started to wonder if, in most cases, just draining the water isn’t enough—rather than installing steel frames, anchors, or rock bolts, lol.
Well, it’s not very common to do construction work before a building collapses, though.
If anything, most of the work involves post-collapse remediation.
If they're really going to carry out remedial work, I'm wondering if it'll involve draining the water and installing retaining walls? (Drain the water to lighten the load, then secure it with retaining walls.)
Controlling the movement of water helps prevent disasters, doesn't it?
See you later.
