Chapter 2 Concrete Strength Testing
Bashu Province has a population of nearly 100 million, but there are about 50 institutions that can do engineering quality or cost appraisal. Half of them are located in the provincial capital of Rongcheng.
As for the local level, there are only one or two prefecture-level cities in the directory, but Qiao Guoqiang himself knows that many testing companies have their own branches or offices in prefectures.
Although the market is large, there is also a lot of competition, and the state will not allow any company to monopolize this kind of testing and identification business. After all, competition will be more open and transparent, especially when it comes to judicial fairness.
Yaohui is just a small company, and the initial business is to rely on the connections made by Lao Ruan as an engineer for several years and a civil servant for several years after changing jobs, and do some quality appraisal commissions in state-owned enterprises. As for the entrustment of courts and arbitration institutions, it was brought into the industry by his retired father-in-law.
Relying on four or five years of hard work, it can be regarded as making a little achievement. Among these fifty institutions, although it is not the top group, it is not the last, anyway, the market is big enough, even a little salted fish can feed the company.
Lao Ruan recently wanted to expand the market, so he turned the original two testing stations into five, and let three people who he thought could stand alone to go out and open the market, even if it didn't expand, at least it wouldn't be lost. At the same time, it can also charge hundreds of thousands of contract fees, which can be regarded as a means of stopping losses.
It was just after the meeting and it was time for the lunch break.
Qiao Guoqiang and a few colleagues went out and found a restaurant downstairs in the company to deal with it.
At 12:50, Qiao Guoqiang walked into the office with a bottle of mineral water, and was woken up after squinting on the table for a while.
"Qiao Gong!" Yao Jia, a clerk in the same office, knocked on the table: "Mr. Ruan asked you to go to his office!" โ
"Good!" Qiao Guoqiang asked, "Do you know what it is?" โ
"I don't know!" Yao Jia whispered, "However, Hu Gong is in the office." โ
"Old Hu?" Qiao Guoqiang frowned, "He's not the one who makes a small report~"
After walking more than a dozen steps, Qiao Guoqiang knocked on the door of the general manager's office.
"Little Joe, come in!"
Qiao Guoqiang walked in, stood still in front of the reception sofa, and asked, "Mr. Ruan, what are you looking for me?" โ
Lao Ruan smoked a cigarette, looked at Qiao Guoqiang, and said, "The territory has been divided, and several people in charge are going to take people to their territory to do things." Lao Hu wants to take you there, I want to ask your opinion. โ
"I'm not interested." Qiao Guoqiang said.
"Why?" Hu Yanran asked, "Aren't you from Guocheng?" โ
"Brother Hu!" Qiao Guoqiang was a little embarrassed: "I grew up in the northwest, and my hometown in Guocheng is a completely strange place to me." I can't help you over there..."
"And I'm used to staying in the provincial capital now, and I can't accept it if I want to change places."
"Okay!" Lao Ruan said to Hu Yanran, "Why don't you ask those new young people to see who will go with you, or recruit an assistant yourself?" โ
"Hey, I'll ask!" Hu Yanran got up and went to the large space office.
"Little Joe, you should actually go with him." Lao Ruan said, "There are three cities and 16 counties in Lizhou, and the market is huge. You follow Lao Hu, and it won't be a problem to get 150,000 a year. โ
"Fang Yong is in the two cities of DA State and Bane, and last year he shared 700,000 yuan from me." Lao Ruan painted a cake for Qiao Guoqiang, "You don't want to be like him?" โ
Qiao Guoxiang's face did not change, and he thought, "Lao Tzu is now lying in the system space with 1.5 million US dollars, rare for you to have 700,000 this year?" โ
"No, Mr. Ruan!" Qiao Guoqiang said, "If I want to take the 700,000 yuan, I'm afraid I have to do a job of 3 million yuan, I don't want to make money like this." Too tired! โ
"Also, I'm not interested in the matter of contracting the cost room you said before. You might as well just find someone to contract out, and I'll follow the quality appraisal. โ
Lao Ruan looked at Qiao Guoqiang and didn't speak for a long time.
Qiao Guoqiang waited for a few minutes before he heard him say, "Forget it, you go to work first!" โ
"Good!"
After that, Fang Yong and Yan Kun also came to him, but he refused.
Now he is the only one in the company who can do the cost, and he is usually a little busy with his own tasks, and he has to deal with the help of colleagues from time to time.
It would have been easier if he had gone to the local area, but now his daily rhythm of practicing and studying in order to cope with the possible crossing would be interrupted.
The various facilities and connections in the local area are certainly not inferior to those of the provincial capital.
So, don't use money to attract me, I don't go!
After two weeks of busy work, dealing with two quality appraisal reports and a repair plan, Qiao Guoqiang went on a business trip.
In a county north of Rongcheng, there is a construction site where the foundation has been completed and needs to be inspected before the next stage of construction.
Several cities on the plains are now directly done by the company, and usually whoever is in the company leads the team. However, Lao Soft has already gone to Ganzi Prefecture, and the company is Huang Gong. She arranged for Qin Jian and Qiao Guoqiang to come over, along with two new college graduates.
After driving for two hours to the scene, Qin Jian and Qiao Guoqiang met with the project leader.
"Tan Gong, Qiao Gong!" Zhang Daoping, the project leader, said, "I'm sorry for you..."
"Zhang Gong is polite." Tan Jian said, "Work, there is no trouble, no trouble." โ
Qiao Guoqiang refused the cigarette handed over by the other party and said, "Take us to the scene first!" โ
"Come with me!"
Dozens of meters behind the project department, in a foundation pit 40 meters long and 18 meters wide, the foundation of a residential building has been completed.
"Old Tan, do you work?"
"Okay!" Qin Jian said, "I'll come first, you take pictures." You're tall, and I'm going to leave it to you! โ
"Gotta get it!" Qiao Guoqiang agreed. Qin Jian's height is only 1.65 meters, and his height is 12 centimeters taller than the other party, so it is naturally more convenient to detect the higher foundation beam.
According to the drawings, the foundation of the building has a total of 35 frame columns, 35 independent foundations, and 58 foundation beam segments. According to the testing regulations, they should take at least 5 independent foundations, 5 columns and 6 foundation beams as test samples. But in order to prevent the backlash, Qin Jian chose to double, so that the workload was large.
Qin Jian drew an "A1#" with chalk on a pillar, and Qiao Guoqiang took a photo with a SLR. Then followed Qin Jian's little apprentice Zhu Lei to measure the specifications of the pillar with a ruler, reported the number, and another young man, Gao Ziqiang, hurriedly recorded.
Qiao Guoqiang next to him took another photo.
After measuring the size, Zhu Lei took the concrete rebound meter and looked at the column, "Oh!" "Wow!"ยทยทยท of measurements. Qin Jian took a laser rangefinder to detect the distance between the two pillars.
Busy until noon, the concrete rebound value and specification distance of 22 samples were recorded, and Qiao Guoqiang took the "Site Investigation Record" for Party A, Party B and the supervision party on the site to sign.
When signing, the representative of Party B also asked, "How is it?" Qualified? โ
"Can't say it now!" Qiao Guoqiang said with a smile: "The rules of judicial appraisal are to be kept secret. โ
