乌干达印象(十一)

经过5月底到6月中下旬时间的紧张工作,竹子材料的采购、运输、防霉防虫处理、基础施工、结构框架大样制作等已经基本完成。在竹结构加工和基础填埋过程中由于语言沟通问题出现了障碍,很多专业术语翻译也无法解说,造成了不少误解和施工上的错误,很多技术要点交代好了最后所完成的与交代的相违背,经过一段时间的合作后,他们也都懂得中国师傅在工作中的语言表达是指做什么工作了。

After intense work from the end of may to mid to late June, the procure ment, trans portation, anti mold and insect proof treat ment of bamboo materials, founda tion cons truction, the large scale production of the structural frame has been basically completed. In the process of bamboo structure proces sing and foundation landfilling, language communi cation problems have appeared obstacles, and many professional termin ology trans lations cannot be explained, this has caused many mis unders tandings and construction errors. we many technical points have been explained. many technical points have been explained. they final completion is contrary to the explanation. after working together for a period of time, they all understand what the Chinese language expression means in their work.

工人的日工作作息时间是8小时制,工人们每天准时上下班,他们早上来上班时都穿的整整齐齐,同时身上还背一个包,里面放的是当天干活的衣服,到了工地后他们就及时换上工作时的衣服。傍晚工作结束后这些工人很习惯的洗澡,有的在整个身体上擦上护肤乳,然后换上早上来上班时那套干干净净衣服回家,看上去很有体面。黑人的皮肤虽然黑黝黝的且很细腻,从男人的体格上就能看到他们的结实身体,而且个个都有非常发达的肌肉。

Workers’ daily work and rest time is an 8 hour system. They go to work on time every day. They wear neat clothes when they come to work in the morning, and everyone has a bag on their back. What’s in the bag is the work clothes for that every day. In the evening, after get off work is over, these workers usually take a shower. Some put skin care lotion on their bodies, then put on the clean clothes that came from work in the morning and go home, looking very decent. Although the black skin is dark but delicate, you can see their strong body from the physique of men, all of them have very developed muscles.

在建造竹建筑中我们碰到了许许多多的事情,由于地理环境因素带来很多不便,除了竹子已经解决外,比如:水源、电路(太阳能供电、客房的冷热水交换)、卫生设施、泥土填埋、水泥(包括砂和石子)的来源、处理竹子的燃料、茅草的收集、工具设备以及五金件。中国人和乌干达人的生活习惯均都不同,之所以吃的食物、起居,以及管理人员的生活安排,特别是电能,现场都是靠太阳能收集电源,一到雨天或者阴天我们就担心生活电源,不然会造成用电紧张,偶尔几次是抽水后造成电源紧张,迫使我们晚上早早熄灯睡觉。好在乌干达每天都有太阳,一场雨后就云开雾散,全雨和全阴的天气是极少出现,乌干达的常年平均气温在摄氏22°C。

We have encountered many things in the construction of bamboo buildings. Due to the geographical environment factors, we have encountered many inconveniences. In addition to the bamboo has been solved, such as: water source, electric circuit (solar power supply, hot and cold water exchange in guest rooms), sanitary facilities, soil Landfill, sources of cement (including sand and stones), fuel for bamboo processing, thatch collection, tools, equipment. Chinese and Ugandans have different living habits. The reason why in eat food, daily life, and the living arrangements of management personnel, especially electricity, are collected by solar energy on site. We worry about our life when it rains or cloudy. Power supply, otherwise it will cause tension in electricity consumption. Occasionally, the power supply will be tensioned after pumping water several times, forcing us to turn off the lights and sleep early at night. Fortunately, Uganda has the sun every day. After a rain, the clouds will clear and the fog will clear. The weather of full rain and full overcast is rarely seen. The annual average temperature in Uganda is Celsius 22℃.

客房的竹建筑高度接近9米,在高空作业上需要使用脚手架,最好是移动脚手架,这里远离城市(去城市开车需要两个小时的路程),租用移动脚手架的费用也不知道怎么计算了,所以我们就放弃了这种念头,用竹子自建了简易的可以移动的脚手架。

The bamboo building of the guest room is close to 9M high. Scaffolding is required for aerial work. Mobile scaffolding is best. Murchison is far away from the city (it takes two hours to drive to the city). I don’t know how to calculate the cost of renting mobile scaffolding. So we gave up this idea and built simple movable scaffolds with bamboo.

竹结构框架制作完后框架的竖立也是个难题,在中国或者市区可以采用吊车吊装,在这里只能靠人工了,大家都一股劲的想办法如何安全而又顺利的将每片框架竖立起来,我们用了几种方式结果都不行,经过大家的齐心配合和努力,在第一片框架竖好之后,其他的按顺序将一片片非常顺利竖立起来。

The erection of the bamboo structure frame is also a difficult problem. In China or urban areas, cranes can be used for hoisting. we can only rely on manual people at work here. Everyone is working hard to figure out how to stand each frame safely and smoothly. We used several methods to get. after every ones concerted cooperation and hard work, after the first frame is erected, the others are erected very smoothly in order.

项目上有一位乌干达人Nahurira Bright他是一个会动脑筋肯干,接受能力比较强的人,基础技术比较全面,他会烹饪、水电、建筑、修车和机械设备等,这次竹子建筑的结构技术他学的速度非常快,还有一定的领导能力。由于在施工中需要与黑人工人沟通都是由他去解决,每道工序的工作也是他带头做示范。

On our project there is Nahurira Bright, from Ugandan. He is a person who can use his brains and has a relatively strong acceptance ability. He has comprehensive basic skills. He can cook, water and electricity, construction, car repair and mechanical equipment. He learns structural technology very fast and he has certain leadership skills. Since he needs to communicate with black workers during construction, he will take the lead in demonstrating each process.
