Hello, everyone.<\/p>\n

This is Enta.<\/p>\n

Lately, I\u2019ve had many opportunities to visit private homes to inspect stonework repairs and the like.<\/p>\n

That makes me think about a lot of things, lol.<\/p>\n

There are quite a few impressive houses, but even though they\u2019re very nice, many of them are located in pretty sketchy areas.<\/p>\n

\"Cliff<\/p>\n

It\u2019s fine where safety measures are in place, but in places where they aren\u2019t\u2014just because the view is nice or it\u2019s on a corner lot\u2014<\/p>\n

We're building our house with that kind of vision in mind.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And over time, depending on the weight of the house (live load), it will gradually settle, causing the house to tilt or the ground to collapse, right?<\/p>\n

One characteristic of houses like this is that they usually have trees in the yard.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It looks pretty overgrown, but from our perspective as slope maintenance specialists, this is the absolute basics, and,<\/p>\n

Cut down the tree at Hoken!<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

However, even though ordinary homes are located near cliffs\u2014on land where the ground has been raised on only one side by earthworks\u2014people still plant trees in their yards.<\/p>\n

\"Trees<\/p>\n

In public works projects, when slopes are stabilized using legal frameworks or similar measures, I believe this is what they look like when viewed from below.<\/p>\n

However, the actual situation is as follows.<\/p>\n

\"Legal<\/p>\n

When a typhoon or something like that comes, it's usually raining, isn't it?<\/p>\n

In situations like that, if the wind is causing the trees to sway and it\u2019s raining, the ground becomes loose and unstable.<\/p>\n

If trees sway at the top of the slope, it will affect the slope reinforcement structure and make the slope more prone to collapse.<\/p>\n

To prevent this from happening, we clear the area up to a point slightly inside the legal boundary.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

However, in luxurious private homes, the gardens always face the cliff, so you can always enjoy a beautiful view.<\/p>\n

Naturally, since there's a yard, there are trees in it.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

There are trees like this.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Basically, they tell me, \u201cThere are some abnormalities in this embankment area and the slope under the house, so please come take a look and investigate,\u201d lol.<\/p>\n

It is quite common to find stone walls or dry-stone walls in this area.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When we conduct a survey, the soil pressure is directed toward the slope side. (That's the only option.)<\/p>\n

As a result, the stonework may be pushed out of place, cracks may form, or\u2014in the worst-case scenario\u2014loose stones may fall out.<\/p>\n

\"Loose<\/p>\n

This stone wall is also starting to lean to the right.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There are trees near this house, too.<\/p>\n

Trees aren't the only cause of the pressure, but they are one of the causes!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Another issue is that we\u2019ve been asking local contractors to fill these cracks with grout from above,<\/p>\n

The problem is that I don't know exactly where I'm pressing from and to.<\/p>\n

Ideally, it would be best if you could show it to me while it\u2019s still in its damaged state, but there\u2019s a 99% chance it\u2019s been repaired multiple times.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Regardless of whether or not you decide to take measures against loose stone piles, a temporary solution would be to:Cutting Down Trees<\/span><\/strong><\/span>That's it.<\/p>\n

I don't need any trees in my yard, lol (they cause the ground to shift).<\/p>\n

In fact, it makes me wonder if the foundation of a house with several trees in a backyard the size of a cat\u2019s forehead isn\u2019t completely crumbling.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For now, if you have a garden with trees that sway in the wind to the point of shifting the soil, please cut them down if possible.<\/p>\n

If we do that, the ground movement should subside for the time being.<\/p>\n

I hope the movement in the stone walls and on the slope side will settle down, even if just a little.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

After that, I think it would be best to carry out slope protection, surface protection work on the stone walls, and measures to address pore water pressure.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

See you later.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

With so much free time on my hands, I started a blog. I\u2019ve been sharing my expertise on slope stabilization and answering all kinds of questions. As a result, I\u2019ve seen an increase in inquiries, questions, and orders from slope stabilization contractors, general contractors, and other major construction firms. My traffic on Ameblo grew to a reasonable level, so I decided to move on from Ameblo by acquiring my own domain in order to create a more user-friendly blog. I plan to continue sharing all my expertise openly and honestly here.
