Found a great product! (Drainable Flexible Container Bag)

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. It’s so delicious to stop by a convenience store on the way home from a job site and grab some sweets or a light snack, isn’t it? The other day, I stopped by a convenience store on my way home from a job site to pick up a few things. Since I’m trying to lose weight, I usually go for something sweet from Konnyaku Hata that’s practically calorie-free, but the intern…

Things That Are Handy to Have, But Make You Go, “Huh!?” When They’re Missing | On-Site Tools

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I’ve been making a lot of trumpet-shaped tubes lately, lol. What this is used for is to direct the flow forward—rather than backward—during bore cleaning. This is it. Since directing the flow backward causes all sorts of problems, we try to direct it forward as much as possible. I’ve been getting requests for this kind of product, so lately I’ve been…

The Truth, the Facade, and the Contradictions of Construction Sites | The Reality of the Industry

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. At one job site, a supervisor asked me, “I think you can tell the hardness and soil type from the slime, but what about this site?” From the unconsolidated zone to the consolidation layer at that site, it’s all mudstone. You can’t tell the hardness from the slime, and as you can see, the soil is pitch black…

Civil Engineers Explain Accurately and Clearly | Communication Skills

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. The other day, I was talking with a government official on site about soil conditions. That official, who has experience with ground anchor work in his capacity as a government official, said to me, “We can confirm the anchorage layer using the cuttings from the borehole, right?” lol. Well, there’s a lot to say about that…

Drilling Machine Rail Repair Completed | Maintenance Log

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I’ve finally finished repairing the rails on the drilling machine. I cut off the old rails and welded on some high-precision ones. I had our neighbors at Wakazono Manufacturing do the welding. They’re pros, after all, so they did a great job! lol …

Rebuilding Japan as a Nation of Manufacturers Through Civil Engineering | The Mission of the Construction Industry

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. It’s really starting to get hot, isn’t it! I think it’s about time the rainy season ended! So, how are you all preparing for summer? We’re steadily making progress here. That said, in our case, it’s not about air-conditioned clothing or anything like that—it’s more about finding shade…

That Thing for Removing Drilling Slurry | Construction Tools

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I really don’t want to do this, but I guess I’ll have to lol. It’s the “slime removal” that’s always required when supervising ground anchor work. Even though I’ve explained to the general contractor that it’s pointless, the local government insists I do it. If I tell the local government it’s pointless…
