Construction

Workers’ hands are exposure many risks.
⇒ Wearing hand protections can reduce such a risk.
Let's work efficiently.
⇒ Wearing adequate hand protections may bring workability improvement.

01

Foundation work

This task is to lay the foundation for firmly conveying the building's own weight to the ground.
To embed the steel frame in the ground in order to prevent soil collapse. And then to flatten the ground and cover it with concrete. Digging a hole towards the strongest supporting layer in the ground and making a pile to support the building with concrete. Process the pile head and put the rebar out in order to connect the underground pile with the building to be built in the future.

In foundation work, workers mainly operate construction machines such as bulldozers, hydraulic excavators, cranes, dumpers but their hands are still exposure many risks
SHOWA does consider your work and recommends hand protections which are suitable for machine operation.

02

Framework

This task is to construct main structural parts of buildings such as pillars, beams and roofs.
