People often question the necessity of placement tolerances during concrete placement, but there’s always only one answer!

Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

I still get asked about placement errors from time to time.

Anchor Scale

Questions You Might Be Wondering About!

 

Is there any point in doing something like this?

Like...

I get asked this all the time.

The Significance of Positioning Error Measurement

Since it's a positioning error,How far did it deviate from the initial position (the position I chose)?

That's what this management is all about.

 

This is definitely not a matter of a pitch discrepancy or anything like that.

Vertical and horizontal pitch refer to pitch.

For example, if the lateral pitch is 2 m, does that mean 2.05 m is a +0.05 m increase?No.

On-Site Spray-Applied Formwork, 1100 Pitch

Some people often measure the vertical and horizontal pitch to calculate the error, but that actually serves a different purpose.

 

Does it make sense?

From the perspective of those doing it, it's pointless, but,

So, from the government's perspective, if it's written down, it must have some meaning, lol.

 

A long time ago, I couldn't wrap my head around it, so I kept asking the person in charge at the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism all sorts of questions, and I even called the Public Works Research Institute and the National Institute for Land and Infrastructure Management.

In the end, we never found out why.

The conclusion was that this was likely due to positioning errors caused by misalignment of the centerline in the driven pile work.

Anchor Scale

Since this is just part of our administrative duties, we have no choice but to do it for now—though we didn't have to do this back in the day, lol.

 

For now, it’s fine since we’re visualizing and measuring it using bolt scales and anchor scales, but,

To be honest, it really is a hassle and I don't get it at all, lol.

Fujiwara Industries Bolt Scale

 

But since it's written down, I guess I have no choice but to do it, lol

Let's just plow right through this!

 

It’s pointless, but those administrative tasks you just have to do are really mentally draining, aren’t they?

 

See you later.
