Hello, everyone.
This is Enta.

The vibrating part of the sand hopper was starting to crack, so I reinforced it with welding.
If you take good care of it, it'll last a loooong time.
If you take good care of it, it will keep earning money for you for a long time.
That kind of attitude is important.
But that's beside the point.
This site, where work was previously carried out.
Reinforcement Bar Installation + Green Panels + Landscaping

It's something like this (lol)
You can see a faint green panel there, right?

If you look closely, you'll see that the grass outside the green panel is flattened and covered.

It seemed like there wasn't much greenery inside the Green Panel.
It looks like the roots probably died off quite early.

For now, the growing medium was placed inside the grid.
Overall, I believe there are no issues with the vegetation engineering.
But that's just how it is with this location.
That’s because this site is located in a heavy snowfall area, so the weight of the snow and the freeze-thaw cycle cause the base material to lift, and it flows out to the toe of the slope in the spring.
Since this happens every year, the vegetation substrate gradually breaks down.
It is possible that the pressure plate may become loose in a few years.
Furthermore, it is entirely possible that the landscaping base material itself could disappear.
If the soil is lost, the next steps would be to apply mud spray or reapply the vegetation substrate.
Since there is no soil base, relying solely on seed spraying is likely to be difficult.
Surprisingly, there are quite a few slopes like this, and I expect that the number of projects to re-construct such slopes will increase in the future.
That said, considering the life-cycle costs, we might not go with landscaping after all...
It seemed like a mountain where, if we were going to plant vegetation, it would be better to add a few more shrubs and reduce the amount of grass.
It looks like there's too much grass, doesn't it?
If you're focusing on appearance, adding more grass will make it look nicer, but in the long run, shrubs are definitely the way to go.
In the case of shrubs, if they grow too large and you need to consider maintenance and other factors,
It’s also important to consider whether this person will be able to handle situations when there’s a staff shortage.
It depends on the manager's approach, but when creating a vegetation mix, it's better to prioritize shrubs over grasses, and
It seems that reducing the number of seedlings that sprout would make for a more sustainable greening effort.
But when I look back at projects from a few years ago like this, am I the only one who feels that landscaping is the hardest part?
See you later.
