Hello, everyone. This is Enta. When it comes to ground anchor grouting, have you ever heard that “applying pressure makes it stronger” or that “cement slurry penetrates the surrounding soil”? I used to wonder, too: wouldn’t it be better to grout all the way to the free length rather than just applying pressure at the anchorage point to minimize risk?…

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. A longtime friend of mine passed away the other day. When I think about it, it’s best to see the people who matter to you while they’re still healthy. Make sure you don’t have any regrets! But enough of that. Previously, I wrote about “Measures to Prevent Sand Blowing Caused by Groundwater Pressure in Anchor Construction”…

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Here is the calculation sheet for selecting load-bearing plates. Please use this for design changes to load-bearing plates and similar components. I’d like to consolidate the app-related content for members, but I just don’t have the time... For now, I’ll continue to share what I can publicly until I’m able to handle it.

Let’s make sure to stay hydrated and get enough salt, lol. Anyway, moving on—this time, we’ll be talking about rebar insertion work and the field…

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. A large tree stump is sitting right in the way of where we need to install the ground anchors. This kind of thing happens from time to time when you’re working on a construction site. If we were installing retaining walls, one option would be to simply assemble the retaining wall directly over the tree roots and proceed with construction. But when it comes to the load-bearing plates…
