In a civil engineering site material yard, not only is material storage conducted, but also the frequent movement of trucks and heavy machinery, unloading, and the movement of workers. On unpaved ground, mud and ruts can occur due to rain, which may reduce work efficiency. Hyper CLT mats are civil engineering CLT materials that utilize wood CLT. By laying them in material yards or storage areas, a work space that facilitates the movement of vehicles and heavy machinery can be established while protecting the ground. They can be laid only in necessary locations, and relocation or repurposing in accordance with construction progress is also possible. The 5×10 panel weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 panel weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to install and remove even with small machinery. After use, they can also be utilized as temporary roads, access routes, or heavy machinery work yards. Additionally, they offer unique benefits of wood, such as glare reduction, noise suppression, and CO2 fixation. As a registered technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS "TH-250021-A," these wooden mats can also be used for environmental improvement in material yards and innovative public works.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Conventional welding repair methods can alter the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which always carries the risk of "crack recurrence" or "secondary damage." Hinode Water Supply Equipment Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for metal crack repair without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, the crack is physically removed without affecting the base material at all. Repairs can be made even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
