According to the Japan’s “Yomiuri Shimbun†report, a continuous earthquake occurred in Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan on the 14th and minor aftershocks continue to occur. Every time an earthquake struck, the collapse of the house caused a series of disasters that affected our lives. Of course, we also paid attention to the quality of housing and decoration. Many times, a small detail in the decoration could affect the whole house. The earthquake-resistant ability, then when we were decorating, how did the destruction of the house be minimized during the earthquake?
First, it is best not to arbitrarily disassemble the wall during the renovation!
The demolition of walls, the use of walls as cabinets, and the use of holes on both sides of the wall may destroy the house's resistance to earthquakes.
Although we picked and picked and looked at and looked at the time of buying a house, the 100% satisfied type was still rare. The first thing many people did after they got the key to their new house was to demolish the Eastern Wall and the Western Wall and re-adjust the room layout. In general, the seismic facilities of houses are concentrated in shear walls, beams and floors of concrete structures. When occupants decorate houses, it is best not to damage these structures. Among them, some homeowners are arbitrarily dismantled and reformed walls in order to expand their space for use.
Under normal circumstances, if a household on the first floor removes a large area of ​​bearing walls, the seismic performance of the building will be weakened and the load stress will be abnormal. In the event of an earthquake, the entire building is likely to collapse. Even if the load-bearing walls on the first floor are not demolished, the load-bearing walls on other floors will be demolished and the stress structure of the building will be deformed. The structure will become more fragile and the possibility of catastrophic collapse will remain high.
In the traditional concept, there has always been such a view that the load-bearing wall in the room cannot be demolished, but the load-bearing wall can be demolished. In fact, this is also a mistake. In contrast to load-bearing walls, non-load-bearing walls are secondary load-bearing components, but at the same time they are extremely important support for bearing walls. It bears at least two parts of the load, one part is the weight of the wall. In a six-story residential building, for example, the non-supporting walls in the ground floor houses bear the weight of the upper five walls; the other part is structurally speaking, non-load-bearing walls. It is usually designed as a seismic wall. In other words, if an earthquake occurs, these non-load-bearing walls will bear seismic forces together with the bearing walls. Therefore, for a certain family, there is no problem in dismantling non-load-bearing walls or making holes in the walls. However, if the residents of the whole building are arbitrarily demolition and modification of non-load-bearing walls, the anti-seismic force of the building will be greatly reduced.
Second, do not increase the burden on the balcony
As a separate space, the balcony is often given a variety of functions to convert to bedroom, study, kitchen, and even stacking heavy objects. In fact, for safety reasons, we should "reduce our burden" on the balcony.
In order to increase the utilization rate of balconies, some people also installed closed windows or walls on the balcony, or extended the front of the balcony to the floor, put a plate on it, installed a cage on the plate to store debris, flower pots, or even installed an air-conditioning console. The weight of the balcony will greatly exceed its design bearing capacity, and the cantilevered beam supporting the load of the balcony will be easily broken. In severe cases, the balcony will fall. In particular, the vibration of the air conditioners running day and night will cause continuous damage to the balconies.
In addition, there is usually a window on the wall between the room and the balcony. The doors and windows can be changed, but the wall below the window cannot be moved. This wall is called "weight wall" and it acts like a scale to provoke a balcony. Demolition of this wall will reduce the bearing capacity of the balcony and cause the balcony to fall.
Spring decoration knowledge
The color, texture, feel
and visual effect of Marble Look Tiles completely achieve the realistic effect of natural marble, and the decorative
effect is much better than natural stone, which abandons all kinds of natural
defects of natural marble. Compared with natural stone, it has higher brightness,
low water permeability, no radiation, light weight, easy handling, and
convenient maintenance. It is especially suitable for indoor public space. It
has good wear resistance and gloss, in which the Polished Porcelain Tiles
surface is brighter and the hardness is high.
In addition to the high fidelity of Wood Look Tiles , the material difference makes it cheaper than the cost of solid wood. The tiles are almost non-absorbent, so you don't have to worry about mold and insects on wet weather. The surface is water-repellent and easy to clean. If it is contaminated with dust, it can be wiped directly with water. You don't need to "long-term care" like a wood tiles.
The surface of the Concrete Look Tiles like matt brick. If it is used as an interior decoration, there is no need to worry about light pollution. The visual effect is relatively simple and gives a very comfortable feeling. The material is very convenient to maintain, because of its surface-specific the texture, even if it is scratched, will not affect the visual effect.
The Stone Look Tiles has a smooth and clean surface, uniform color tone, clear and elegant texture, hard and delicate texture, no water absorption and pollution prevention, acid and alkali resistance, weathering, green environmental protection, no radioactive poisoning and other high quality. These excellent physical and chemical properties are unmatched by natural stone. It can be used in the interior and exterior walls, floors, countertops, etc. where stone construction and decoration are required.
