What problems should I pay attention to before tearing down the wall?

Generally, after the whole building is completed, the construction party will submit a drawing to the property management office, which clearly indicates the nature, thickness and material of various walls, so that the owner can know which walls can be demolished. This paper will introduce some problems that should be paid attention to before tearing down the wall.

Property approval

Before the wall decoration, the owner's friends must submit the construction drawings given by the designer to the property management company, and the construction can only begin after the approval.

The top beam is not detachable.

The top beam is a key load-bearing component and plays a stabilizing role. When decorating, we can use the ceiling to hide the beam, which is beautiful and solves the problem.

Don't knock on the wall connecting the balcony.

The wall connecting the balcony is a load-bearing wall, and it is risky to make holes and open windows on it. If there are doors and windows on this wall, then the doors and windows can be knocked down, but the wall under the window can't be knocked down. This kind of wall is called "counterweight wall", which will reduce the bearing capacity of the balcony and easily lead to the balcony falling.

The load-bearing wall cannot be removed.

Load-bearing wall is a wall without precast ring beam, which is thicker than non-load-bearing wall, generally 24 cm. The demolition of load-bearing walls will easily affect the structural safety of buildings. Be sure to check the construction plan and consult relevant professionals before renovation.

The repair work after tearing down the wall cannot be saved.

After the demolition and reconstruction is completed as planned, the later repair is also essential. For example, the new brick wall should be supported, that is, the joints of the old and new walls should be repaired, so as to ensure the stability and seismic capacity of the wall.
