<\/p>\nHello, everyone.<\/p>\n
This is Enta.<\/p>\n
It looks like the rainy season has ended in the Kanto region, and summer is in full swing!<\/p>\n
Just a little bit of movement and I'm already drenched in sweat...<\/p>\n
Let's be careful to avoid heatstroke.<\/p>\n
But that's beside the point.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We have a lot of work in the mountains, but at sites with a good view, you can actually see the rain coming your way, lol.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s so funny how the rain always stops the moment I rush back to the scene wearing my raincoat lol<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
By the way, do you carry out construction work on rainy days?<\/p>\n
You can handle things like assembling formwork and installing lath, right? Anchor installation isn't affected by the rain, though...<\/p>\n
That said, you can't use power tools like electric hammer drills. (It's not that you can't use them, but you're not supposed to.)<\/p>\n
So, people often say they leave work for rainy days. (That used to happen a lot.)<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
For example, if it starts raining and you can\u2019t apply the spray coating, you can leave the formwork assembled so that you can continue the work on a rainy day.<\/p>\n
So that means you'll have no days off to play, right?<\/p>\n
So, back in the day, we\u2019d usually start the spray application once the assembly was about 80% complete, and on rainy days, we\u2019d do the assembly work.<\/p>\n
Also, on rainy days, we do the prep work for the spray application, such as installing repair mesh and stretching sheeting over the formwork, but,<\/p>\n
This applies only to construction sites of a certain size.<\/p>\n
It doesn't really make much sense for mountains ranging from about 100 m\u00b2 to 500 m\u00b2.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
For small-scale projects like this, it\u2019s more efficient to get them done all at once.<\/p>\n
If you have one day's worth of assembly left, it's a waste of time.<\/p>\n
When it's time to set up, set up. When you're done, play. If it rains, take a break!<\/p>\n
This is fine. What's the point of spending just half a day assembling it on a rainy day? You'll just be wasting half a day, right??<\/p>\n
Rather than that, working hard every day and resting when you can actually rest will improve your overall efficiency.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
These days, people work on the basic premise that they\u2019ll get a minimum amount of rest. (Two days off a week is a given.)<\/p>\n
In the past, taking time off was considered unacceptable.<\/p>\n
However, there is also a view that taking time off can actually boost work efficiency significantly.<\/p>\n
I take breaks to boost my productivity.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Come to think of it, on small-scale jobs, let\u2019s just cram all the work in at once and take the day off when it rains. (Unless there\u2019s something to do at the office, lol.)<\/p>\n
Medium- and large-scale projects don't get days off (the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has a two-day weekend), so the only option is to increase the workforce to shorten the construction schedule... lol<\/p>\n
Either way, the construction company is going to face all sorts of challenges going forward, but let's keep paying them!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
See you later.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
