Question the Gaps | Examining the Causes of Gaps That Form Even When Wooden Sheeting Is Screwed in Place

Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

Wooden Sheeting

I'm sure you're familiar with wooden sheet piles.

It looks something like the photo above, doesn't it?

 

Did something seem off to you at first glance?

I didn't notice it at all either, but the general contractor said something was off lol

 

This is what it looked like when it was first installed.

Wooden Sheeting

It's packed just right.

Wooden Sheeting

Apparently, a gap like this opened up a few weeks later!!!

Even if you look at the wide-angle photo above, you can see it's open in some places, right? lol

 

And on top of that, it’s actually open even though it’s securely screwed shut!?

Wooden Sheeting

Even though both sides are secured with screws and shouldn't move at all, a gap has formed.

What is this?

 

If you think about it normally, you might wonder if it shrank due to the wood expanding and contracting, right?

But even if it's secured with screws, does only that part shrink??

That's what you're thinking, right? lol

 

Actually, when I really think about it, the wooden sheet piles we’ve used so far definitely had gaps in them.

But why? I had never even thought about that.

Question

It’s important to ask “Why?” even about things we usually take for granted.

私自身が日常を疑え!って言っているのに、まだまだ疑えていなかったですw

I guess I still have a lot to learn, lol.

皆さんの日常は大丈夫ですか?それで問題無いんですか?

このまま行っても大丈夫ですか?

まだ今なら改善の余地があるのでは??

 

Let's start questioning our daily lives! If anyone knows about the gaps in the wooden planks, please let me know!

 

See you later.
