Chapter 1: A Restless Night
The moon is born on the sea, and the end of the world is at this time.
As the depths of winter approached, the nights in Egret City began to get cold.
Just listen to the crunch.
Hua Kejing put on an overcoat and pushed open the door of the dormitory.
He let out a long breath and walked back in the direction of the construction site.
It's a cold day!
The dormitory of the project department is built with a prefabricated house, which can of course shelter from the wind and rain, but it is really a little bit of a point in terms of cold and thermal insulation.
The two-story dormitory buildings lay simply, in rows, not far from the seaside in the southwest corner of the island.
Because of the undeveloped tidal flats behind it, even on this small island where tourism is the lifeblood of its economy, it is usually inaccessible.
So, compared to the rest of the island, it does seem a lot more deserted.
The scenery here is acceptable, and the key is to build the dormitory of the project department here, which has no land restrictions and is quite economical.
"All construction sites that are not for the purpose of making money are hooligans."
This is the slogan of He Jin, the owner of the construction site.
It's been a long time since anyone has portrayed the matter of cutting corners so righteously.
Hua Kejing can naturally understand the boss's intentions.
So, even if the dormitory building was rattled by the icy sea breeze every night, he could gladly accept it.
Turning his head and looking back, the blue and white prefabricated house was now deeply embedded in the dark background.
He unconsciously exhaled a breath of white air, and then looked up at the cold night sky again.
Hey, if you can forget the cold, this scene is really bright like frost, good wind like water, and the clear scenery is infinite.
Stars overhead,
Lights flickering in the distance,
The wind and waves lap on the shore,
The sea behind him was like a deep old man, snoring regularly in his sleep.
Other than that, there is no honking of ships or the noise of tourists, and the island is very quiet at night.
Everyone who should have slept slept, and no one broke the quiet beauty of the night on this island.
In addition to the construction site two kilometers away.
At this moment, Hua Kejing has no intention of feeling the island that is deeper in the night.
Just walking all the way, I can clearly hear my own footsteps and breathing.
There was something on his mind, and his eyelids kept beating hard.
In fact, the construction site is not too far from the dormitory, and it takes only 20 minutes to walk two kilometers faster.
Hua Kejing soon saw the lighting of the construction site not far away, and heard the roar of the mixer and vibrator.
In fact, the project site is already very close to residential areas.
Under normal circumstances, from 10 o'clock in the evening to 6 o'clock in the morning the next day, this period is the time when people rest, and in theory construction is not allowed.
Well, theoretically.
In the process of construction, some construction processes must be completed continuously, such as the pouring of concrete, so that it is possible to carry out night construction.
The construction site has applied for a "night construction permit" from the local construction administration and environmental protection department, and has also issued a safety notice to the neighborhoods in the affected area in advance.
But occasionally, when everyone is in full swing, the noise emissions still significantly exceed the requirements of relevant national regulations.
So, the people were furious!
The construction site has been complained by the surrounding residents several times, but the project has indeed handled the "shameless certificate" of night construction in accordance with the law, and the people have not been able to come up with strong proof that the noise continues to exceed the standard.
After all, the noise emission standards of different processes and different machines are different for different occasions stipulated by relevant policies.
Ordinary people, he can understand a bird.
This loss was eaten so unjustly.
The local authorities only gave a few symbolic verbal warnings before giving up.
Of course, there is the most critical reason for this - the Cultural Palace under construction is listed as one of the key livelihood projects in Lucheng.
The construction scale is as follows: two floors underground, a total of 10 floors above ground, and the construction of the eighth floor is now underway, and there is still half a year before the completion date of the contract.
In short, the deadline is too rushed, and the task is too heavy!
Otherwise, Hua Kejing and they are not willing to carry out regular night construction, which will make the residents sleep badly, not to mention, they are also disgraced every day, and the key is that they are prone to accidents.
"Chinese workers?" (In the construction site, the project technicians are uniformly called a certain worker, that is, the meaning of a certain engineer.) )
Approaching the gate of the construction site, the doorman Lao Wang saw Hua Kejing, and he also nodded to Lao Wang, which was regarded as a greeting.
According to the schedule, Hua Kejing was resting tonight, so Lao Wang asked puzzledly: "I don't sleep well in the middle of the night, what are you doing here?" ”
"I woke up frozen and couldn't sleep, come and see."
"Little brother, you have insomnia, you have to pay attention."
"Insomnia? There is no insomnia, but I take sleep too seriously, thinking that I will die if I sleep one night less. ”
"So biao!?"
Hua Kejing didn't say anything, just picked up the helmet, buttoned it up, and walked straight into the construction site.
Just like Lao Wang said, I have been working so hard day and night lately, and everyone is tired.
I am just one of the many construction workers in the project department, and it is finally my turn to rest, and I am not an idle egg, what are I doing in the middle of the night?
"I don't know if Lao Lin has changed it for the better?"
Hua Kejing pressed his eyelids, which were still jumping, and muttered to himself.
Lao Lin is the team leader of the formwork support frame at this construction site, and his team is responsible for the construction of the formwork support frame and the steel pipe of the outer scaffolding.
This evening, Hua Kejing found some problems during the inspection.
Because it was already the point of getting off work, most of the scaffolding workers had gone to dinner, so he had to call Lao Lin and several main construction team leaders to have a brief discussion, and by the way, he also gave a wake-up call to the construction workers who took over the late shift.
But even after doing this, Hua Kejing still felt unstable in his heart.
At night, I tossed and turned, and I couldn't sleep.
The thought of the eighth layer of cast-in-place concrete floor slabs to be completed in the evening made his heart more and more uneasy.
The reason is that when he left in the evening, he found that there were three problems when the scaffolding worker erected the floor formwork support system:
First, there are several places where horizontal scissor braces and transverse scissor braces are not set, which may lead to insufficient longitudinal scissor braces.
Second, several parts of the horizontal rod and the vertical rod are not connected.
Thirdly, the spacing of some support poles is too large, and the pressure on the support poles may exceed their bearing capacity.
Because of the continuous rush in the past few days, Hua Kejing did not have time to carefully check and review, but he faintly felt that the overall formwork support system may not be so stable.
Since he couldn't sleep and couldn't let go of his heart, after thinking about it a few times, he decided to rush over late at night to stare at it again.
Quickly approaching the construction building, Hua Kejing looked up at the construction team that was working, and a large amount of concrete was being transported up through the high-pressure pump pipe.
The pouring operation has begun.
"Chinese workers."
At the entrance of the construction elevator, several workers greeted him.
Hua Kejing nodded and asked, "Liu Gong and Lao Lin are both on it?" ”
"Lao Lin is not on it, Liu Gong is on it, and several other scaffolding workers are also on it." The worker replied.
"Where's the old forester?" Hua Kejing frowned slightly.
"Let's go rest, I haven't closed my eyes for two whole days."
"Hmm." Hua Kejing nodded and asked, "Did he go up and see it at night?" ”
"I've seen it."
"Did you say anything?"
"It's said that there is no big problem, and a few people have been sent to reinforce it."
Squeak squeak~
Seeing that the door of the freight elevator opened, Hua Kejing didn't ask again, but walked in quickly.
The elevator hummed up, and through the steel frame, the vision of the Huake mirror gradually extended with the change of height.
He saw the cold moon,
I saw the beating lights,
There is also the hazy coastline in the distance.
During the period when the elevator was rising, Hua Kejing went through the few problematic places again, and thought of the conversation with Lao Lin in the evening.
"Hasn't the formwork been accepted, don't worry, I've done a lot of such a construction site."
"Of course, experience is important, but it is not enough to rely on previous experience, and the construction quality and safety management of key links can not be with thin mud, and it is necessary to strictly implement the approved special construction plan......"
"You're right, you're right, but don't think about it, I'll go to survey again in the evening, and arrange a few more workers to keep an eye on you, so that you can rest assured."
If it weren't for the tight construction period, Hua Kejing originally hoped to stop tonight, and it would be best to organize a verification and calculation during the day tomorrow, and make a special construction technical disclosure, and then pour concrete.
But to stop!?
The boss who treats dung as money will certainly not agree.
And Liu Gong, the project manager of the construction site, and Zhang Gong, the technical person in charge, did not speak, is he a construction worker who has just joined the work for two or three years too prominent?
Bang.
With a slight vibration, the freight elevator came to a halt on the seventh floor.
The door opened, his thoughts came to an abrupt end, and Hua Kejing walked out of the elevator quickly.
At a glance, he saw two or three scaffolders scattered under the support frame of the eighth-story concrete floor slab, with the work surface above their heads, and the concrete pouring was in progress.
Hua Kejing stepped forward and asked loudly at the roar of the vibrator, "How is the situation?" ”
One of the nearest workers replied, "The pouring is almost finished, and no problems have been found." ”
"Okay." Hua Kejing continued to ask noncommittally, "Manager Liu, are they up there?" ”
"On it, Du Gong, the head of the building, is also on it."
"Yes."
Hua Kejing nodded, Liu Gong is the project manager of this project, and at this time he should be grasping the construction progress on the operation surface.
"Manager Liu and Lao Lin have both come to see it, right?"
After turning around under the support frame, Hua Kejing found that the few places he mentioned in the evening that did not have horizontal scissor braces and horizontal scissor braces had been trimmed.
"After reading it, they don't think it's a big problem, and we have done some reinforcement in several places you mentioned."
"Okay."
Hua Kejing rubbed his eyes, felt a little relieved, and took out a tape measure to measure the distance between a few poles.
"The horizontal distance is about 0.8 meters, Nima, this one is 1.3 meters, the longitudinal spacing is about 1 meter, and the individual is up to 1.5 meters......"
He muttered in his mouth, still faintly feeling that something was wrong in his heart.
The concrete pouring operation is nearing completion, and this is when the formwork support system is at its most stressful.
Anyway, it's too late to check the calculations.
"Hopefully, I'm overthinking......"
Hua Kejing thought that it was better to go up to the work surface to take a look first, so he told the scaffolding worker a few more words, and then turned to leave.
Unexpectedly, at the moment when he turned around, a series of piercing friction sounds suddenly came from the bracket above his head.
The grinding sound wasn't loud, but it went straight into his eardrums!
"Oh no, it's over!"
A thought came to his mind like lightning, and Hua Kejing suddenly felt like he was in the bitter winter snow, drenched from head to toe by a basin of ice water.
