Hello, everyone.
This is Enta.
Do you look at the blueprints before starting construction?
I think it goes without saying that the director is watching.
You don't see many artisans around, do you?
Actually, there are a lot of people who haven't really watched the director's work, lol.
Actually, in the slope construction industry, there’s a tendency that we can get the job done to a certain extent even without looking at the blueprints very much.
That's because the key to slope construction is adapting to the site conditions!
Since we build retaining walls or apply shotcrete to match the shape of the mountain and the slope, it doesn't really bother me.
The drawings are used to verify the structure and specifications of the materials used.
Sometimes there are weird design choices, so I guess I'm just checking for things like that, lol.
Even so, since approaches vary from site to site, even skilled workers should review the blueprints just to be safe.
As the "2024 Problem" comes into play in the future,
It’s becoming increasingly likely that managers who aren’t familiar with the front lines will see a flood of temporary workers brought in by the company.
That's exactly why craftsmen should look at the blueprints, too!
You really should learn how to read blueprints.
Going forward, supervisors and workers will need to work together to share information about mistakes on the job site, otherwise,
We won't be able to keep up with a world where the number of directors is steadily declining.
I think construction companies that take that approach will be the ones that get chosen.
We are undoubtedly living in an era where the workforce is increasingly made up of foreign workers, and
The number of foreign engineers (supervisors) is likely to increase as well.
In this context, Japanese craftsmen who can read blueprints and understand construction management are definitely highly valued.
Let's ask the supervisor to show us the blueprints for the site where construction is currently underway.
As you get more familiar with the drawings, you'll start to notice the differences and changes in them.
See you later.
