Is it illegal to destroy the load-bearing wall?

Legal analysis: removing the load-bearing wall means destroying the seismic structure. According to the current law, the load-bearing wall of a house is a public part of the house. Removing the load-bearing wall without authorization will violate the agreement that the load-bearing wall cannot be removed in the owners' convention and the property service contract signed with the property, endanger public safety and bear criminal responsibility. If the circumstances and consequences are serious and endanger public safety, they may also bear criminal responsibility.

Legal basis: Article 26 of the Regulations on the Administration of Seismic Fortification of Building Projects violates these provisions and arbitrarily changes or destroys the seismic components, isolation devices, damping components or seismic response observation systems of building projects. The competent construction department of the local people's government at or above the county level shall order it to make corrections within a time limit, and impose a fine of 1000 yuan on individuals and 1000 yuan on units.
