The jig used by rebar installers to center the rebar is called a clip spacer!

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I’ve mentioned this a few times on this blog. It’s a jig used by rebar installers to position the rebar in the hole. The photo above shows the jig securely holding the rebar in place. While this has become pretty standard practice these days, there are still some people who aren’t familiar with it…

Creativity eventually becomes outdated.

Hi, everyone. It’s Enta here. The job in Tottori that started a few days ago is finally over, and I’m planning to head out to the island to set an anchor starting next week lol. The ocean around the island is so beautiful—it’s absolutely amazing! I’ll be out there setting the anchor in the freezing cold water, thinking to myself, “This would be perfect if it were summer” lol. But anyway, right in the middle of the frame…

2023/06/07

If water is seeping out even at a site where no drainage boreholes have been drilled, you should have them installed!

Hello, everyone. This is Enta.

However, when it comes to projects handled by first- or second-tier subcontractors…

Adapting your ingenuity to local ground conditions creates a synergistic effect!

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I recently wrapped up a rebar insertion project. Although we were a second-tier subcontractor on that job, the general contractor asked us to come up with a creative solution, so I proposed a 4-meter drainage borehole. Since the formwork dimensions are 300 mm square, the insertion length is 3.8 meters. (Within the formwork…

Effective Construction Methods for Disaster Sites and Sites at High Risk of Collapse or Requiring Immediate Action

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Are you putting your creativity to work? I’ve been thinking lately about how rebar installation is carried out at disaster sites. Even during recovery efforts, there are many sites where parts of the structure have collapsed or caved in, aren’t there? In situations like that, the construction plan…
