Robbery at the Job Site | Theft of 60sq 4-Core Cap Tire

2017/10/05

Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

I've been had!

A thief!!!!!

We were wrapping up at the site, and the next day was the last day.

The crime scene was a little out of the way, but the crime was probably...

I'm really disappointed.

What's more, the item that was taken was a 60 sq, 4-core cable. (sq = square = area = mm²)

This is a 30-meter cable running from a 100-kVA generator to the hydraulic unit of a rotary percussion drill.

It's a little less than 5 centimeters thick, isn't it?

A 30-meter roll of 60-square-meter carpet weighs about 130 kg. They took the whole roll.

The 100-kVA generator side has been cut off at the base like this.

The unit is cut like this, too. Who’s going to buy something like this these days??

You can't write your name on a tire, so there's nothing you can do. There's no way to identify it.

For example, even if it were stolen and used at a neighboring construction site, you wouldn't be able to identify it, right?

Seriously, isn't there anything we can do about this?

Rental companies identify their tapes by wrapping them in their own tape.

Even so, if it's removed, it can't be recognized.

So, I guess I'll need to get a security camera after all...

The victim is left with nothing but a really bad feeling.

 

Things like thisI'll stay focused to make sure this doesn't happen again!

We really need to do more to prevent theft, don't we?

Once we come up with a good idea, let's spread the word so everyone can...Let's protect our assets from thieves!

 

See you later.

P.S.

A new retailer selling bolt scales, clip spacers, and landscaping spacers has opened in Shizuoka Prefecture.

Residents of neighboring prefectures should contact that office.

    In the past, at our company’s yard, our gun-type machine’s boom was completely destroyed, along with our generator and our Unick crane. At the job site, our wheel loader was also destroyed. (T_T) Don’t spray machines even have insurance? Entas, please stay safe!

The Correct Way to Install Formwork Is Level (Horizontal) | Why Aligning It with the Road Grade Will Make Reinforcement Installation a Nightmare

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. When I’m driving on the highway, I can’t help but keep looking at the road embankments—it’s an occupational hazard, isn’t it? lol The other day, while I was on the road, I saw a retaining wall that sloped diagonally to match the road’s gradient. Just as I thought, “Oh, that’s to match the gradient,” I also wondered, “What if there were rebar installers working on this…”

Back in the day, when I was installing ground anchors…

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. When I’m driving down country roads, I often see old retaining walls made of cobblestones, don’t I? Some of them are even arched outwards, and I find myself staring at them every time, wondering, “Is this really going to hold up?” lol. Those stone walls that our ancestors built one stone at a time really do make for a nice view…
