Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

This is really just a totally trivial story, but,

It's the auto shop that handles our company cars, and apparently they recently switched to IQOS.

 

And then,Apparently, the taste of my boobs has changed lol

Unlike regular cigarettes, the tar doesn't irritate your nose, so your sense of smell becomes more sensitive...

Who cares, lol

But that's beside the point.

 

I received a phone call from a supervisor at a general contractor with whom I had worked on a Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism project for a year quite some time ago.

It’s always nice to get questions like this from former general contractors and others!

And it seems that some of the people working as agents at the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism don't get Golden Week off...

That must be tough! I totally get how you feel~

 

The inquiry was about the treatment of the heads of rock bolts.

Should you use an oil cap when working on the cylinder head, or not?

So, it seems they used temporary rock bolts at the site.

Although the design included an oil cap, it was determined that it wasn't necessary since the area would ultimately be backfilled, so

He said that when he submitted the consultation document, a technical staff member at the municipal office asked him to explain the evaluation criteria and the effectiveness of the oil cap.

 

 

The literature does not provide a clear determination regarding the handling of the heads in the main hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis.

It depends on whether it's included in the design phase.

I can say with certainty that it's not necessary if it's a temporary structure.

This is because the steel (core material) used in recent rebar insertion work is almost exclusively galvanized.

They say this plating alone will last about 50 years.

That means: plated bolt + plated plate + plated bolt = 50 years
Q&A for Reinforcing Bar Installers

Both the permanent and temporary facilities are functioning properly.

In fact, NEXCO has been moving toward eliminating oil caps for rebar insertion work over the past few years.

On highways such as the Shin-Tomei Expressway and the Shin-Meishin Expressway, there are virtually no oil cap installations.
(I can't say that's true for all of them, though lol)

Apparently, there is also a risk that the oil cap could crack and fall off due to falling rocks or other factors.

 

How should I explain this oil cap?

I'll convince them with my essay lol

I guess I'll just have to write a document (essay) that'll convince the technicians, lol.

To be honest, I find myself thinking, “Man, there really are some technicians who make things a hassle.”

Since an accounting audit once found that the oil cap for head treatment was excessive, I guess I’ll just have to include that in my writing as well...

They say it’s fine because the design allows for a 1mm corrosion allowance. Since it’s only going to be up for about three months, it’s not going to rust anyway, lol.

The amount will be reduced by the cost of the oil cap, but since it's a small amount, I think it'll be fine.

Saying "over-engineering" really hits the nail on the head, but I bet the engineers would try to stop us from doing that, lol.

It simply states that oil caps may be installed in head treatment work, such as soil reinforcement methods for natural ground, but that doesn't really hold much weight.

It's hard to find a book that fits my needs, isn't it?

Personally, if I'm going to use a cap, I prefer cap nuts because they're easier to use, lol.
