How to strengthen and transform the old earth wall houses in rural areas

The following points should be paid attention to in the reinforcement and reconstruction of old earth-walled houses:

1. Test the wall. The structure of old earth-walled houses in rural areas is complex, and cracks and looseness may occur in the walls due to long time or damage. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the wall and determine the reinforcement position.

2. Reinforce the city wall. Use suitable materials to reinforce the parts that have been tested and confirmed to need reinforcement, such as steel bars, steel plates and cement mortar. The specific operation needs to be determined according to the wall conditions and engineering requirements.

3. Improve the local structure. If the local structure of the house is unreasonable and the bearing capacity is poor, structural improvement can be considered, such as adding beams and columns and steel structures.

4. External wall insulation and decoration. After the wall is strengthened, the external wall should be decorated with thermal insulation to improve the thermal insulation and aesthetics of the house. You can choose multi-layer external wall insulation materials and decorative materials suitable for the style of earth-walled houses.

5. Reasonable use and maintenance. After the reinforcement and reconstruction is completed, it is necessary to use the house reasonably and avoid placing large furniture or equipment on the local fragile wall to avoid accelerating the aging of the wall. At the same time, we should pay attention to the regular maintenance of houses, deal with problems such as wall leakage in time, and maintain them in time when problems arise.

In a word, the reinforcement and reconstruction of old earth wall houses in rural areas need comprehensive inspection. According to different wall conditions, appropriate reinforcement materials and techniques should be selected, and the external wall should be insulated and decorated in combination with environmental protection and aesthetic standards, so as to ensure safety, comfort and beauty.
