Revealing the Secret of Cutting Corners on the Construction Site: The Hidden "Four Traps" Behind the Project
Have you ever heard of the "four places" where it is easiest to cut corners on the construction site? Don't worry, come and uncover the hidden "traps" behind these projects!
First of all, I have to mention the little trick of raft thickness. Have you heard? Some projects stipulate a 400-thick foundation raft, but when the actual construction is carried out, only 37 cm is given to you! Do you think it's no problem? Wrong! Because you measure the raft at the edge, it's all 40 cm, what's wrong? In fact, it's a "thin in the middle, thick on all sides" design! In the excavation stage, they raised the middle elevation by 3cm, saving a lot of concrete, imagine that a 20,000 square meter basement can save 600 square meters of concrete, yes, that's 270,000 oceans!
Let's talk about the pile foundation project, this is a place where there are a lot of small ninety-nine! One is to "steal" the pile length, the design is 60m, but in fact it is only 50m deep! Besides, the length of the steel cage has also been "stolen", the design requires a section of 9m, but the construction unit only puts you 7m! This not only saves costs, but also adds a profit!
Don't think that the backfilling of construction waste is in order, but you must be careful! Some places even fill the manure trough with garbage! The prescribed 28 ash or 37 ash soil turns into garbage in an instant! Do you know how much money you save in this way? It also saves the cost of transportation and treatment, and it is a lot of income in an instant!
Finally, there is the "stealing" process. Do you think that the construction process will be carried out according to the drawings? Wrong! Some details of the process have been omitted or simplified! The isolation layer above the waterproof layer, the ground mortar leveling layer, and the mesh cloth pressing when plastering the wall can all be omitted! Can you imagine how considerable the profit saved is?
In short, cutting corners on the construction site is not a piece of cake! In order to guard against the behavior of these "profiteers," it is necessary to strengthen supervision and management to ensure the quality and safety of the project, otherwise, it will be a disaster for the quality of the project!
