Is it better to build a brick-concrete house or a frame in rural areas?

Brick-concrete structure and frame structure have their own advantages and disadvantages, but in the process of selection, local soil, climate, technical resources and other factors should be considered to choose the structure that is most suitable for local residents.

One of the advantages of brick-concrete structure is its high strength and good stability. Brick-concrete structure is more suitable for foundation design than frame structure; At the same time, the brick-concrete structure can improve the bearing capacity by increasing the number of bricks, so it can bear more weight. In addition, because the brick-concrete structure is less difficult in design and construction than the frame structure, its cost is more reasonable. However, the shortcomings of brick-concrete structure can not be ignored. The traditional brick-concrete structure has a long drying time, which is also affected by natural factors such as weather. In addition, because the brick-concrete structure is relatively heavy, it needs a strong foundation. This will be a problem in some soft soil areas.

2. One of the advantages of frame structure is its strong adaptability. Frame structure can enhance the stability and seismic capacity of buildings. The wooden frame structure, which is becoming more and more popular in rural areas, can adopt light steel structure, which can be lightweight and simplified and reduce the construction cost without affecting the strength of the frame structure. At the same time, the construction speed of frame structure is very fast, which is suitable for large-area and multi-storey buildings. Disadvantages: there are few kinds of materials connected in the frame structure, which leads to poor fire resistance and relatively short service life.

3. From the above analysis, it can be seen that brick-concrete structure and frame structure have their own advantages and disadvantages. In fact, when choosing the structure, we should choose it according to the local natural conditions, the needs of local residents and the local building technology level. If rural villas are built in soft soil and mountainous areas, local residents should choose the appropriate structure according to the actual situation. Generally speaking, brick-concrete structure is suitable for areas with stable foundation and not prone to earthquakes, while frame structure is suitable for areas with high earthquake frequency.
