The disaster prevention system 【ZEROSAI】 has implemented a notification function integration with the 【Disaster Prevention Board】 and various business chats. Please utilize it for information sharing during disasters, safety measures on-site, creative ideas, and technical proposals! The business chats that have been integrated are as follows: LINEWORKS direct Wowtalk Microsoft Teams Previously, notifications were only sent via email when weather information exceeded threshold values, but now notifications will also be sent through your business chat to prevent information leaks. Information from the integrated Disaster Prevention Board includes: 1. Exceeding forecast threshold values - 1-hour rainfall, continuous rainfall - Average wind speed, thunderclouds - Above set temperature, below set temperature, heatstroke index 2. Exceeding observation threshold values - 1-hour rainfall, continuous rainfall - Average wind speed, maximum instantaneous wind speed - Above set temperature, below set temperature 3. Warnings, alerts, and special warnings - Special warnings (storm, heavy rain, blizzard, heavy snow) - Alerts (storm, heavy rain, flood, blizzard, heavy snow) - Warnings (heavy rain, heavy snow, snowstorm, thunder, strong winds, flood)

This time, I would like to explain the criteria for stopping work with cranes, specifically the "average wind speed of 10 m/s," including how the wind blows and what kind of effects it may have, as well as touching on the differences between average wind speed, instantaneous wind speed, and maximum wind speed. 1. What does "average wind speed of 10 m/s" mean? 2. What are the differences between "average wind speed," "instantaneous wind speed," and "maximum wind speed"? 3. Conclusion 1. What does "average wind speed of 10 m/s" mean? The wind can vary in strength and is influenced by terrain and nearby structures. According to the Japan Meteorological Agency, an "average wind speed of 10 m/s" is described in forecasting terms as "a somewhat strong wind." *For more details, please visit our website or feel free to contact us.

In light of the recent increase in heatstroke-related fatalities due to extreme heat, the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare has announced that it will amend the Occupational Safety and Health Regulations, which will take effect on June 1, 2025. This article provides a brief overview of "what measures will be necessary." Table of Contents 1. The Importance of Initial Response 2. Measures to be Taken by Employers (1) Establishment of a System (2) Creation of Implementation Procedures (3) Awareness Raising Among Stakeholders 3.

In the construction industry, "bad weather" such as heavy rain and typhoons is one of the threats that jeopardizes the safety of workers and the work plan at the site. According to the Labor Safety and Health Act, (Prohibition of Work During Bad Weather) Article 522 When a business operator conducts work at a height of 2 meters or more, if there is a forecast of danger due to bad weather such as strong winds, heavy rain, or heavy snow, they must not engage workers in that work. However, even though "bad weather" can be described in one word, perceptions of it vary from person to person. Therefore, site supervisors need to establish specific numerical values or indicators to define what constitutes "bad weather" and set criteria for halting work, ensuring that all parties involved have the same understanding. So, how should these criteria be established? Table of Contents 1. What is the specific definition of "bad weather"? 2. Examples of work affected by rain and strong winds 3. Considerations for setting work stoppage criteria 4. Let's understand the weather information at the work site! *For more details, please visit our website or feel free to contact us.

Thank you for always watching us. Currently, there are many weather forecasting services and free apps available. The accuracy of predictions has also improved, and there are likely many people who find that free weather forecasts are sufficient for their daily lives. Sysmet Co., Ltd. provides various weather information services for a fee as a weather company. One of these is the "Natural Disaster Prevention System ZEROSAI," which is utilized for weather measures in civil engineering and construction projects. This time, we will introduce the differences between ZEROSAI and free weather forecasts, as well as the strengths of ZEROSAI. *For more details, please visit our website or feel free to contact us.
