Can the counterweight wall of the balcony be removed, and the counterweight wall of the concave balc

Since the upper part of the balcony is a "counterweight wall", it should not be removed.

In the past building structure design, multi-storey brick-concrete structure residential balconies usually use prefabricated balconies, and when installed, the reserved steel bars of the prefabricated balcony slabs are riveted to the concrete ring beams for fixation, and then rely on the weight of the upper brick wall to play a part of the weight. That part of the brick wall is commonly known as the "counterweight wall". The problem is that after demolition, the load-bearing capacity of the balcony is weakened, and its stability has declined.

Therefore, the "counterweight wall" should not be demolished. Nowadays, the residential buildings mostly use cast-in-place reinforced concrete floor slabs, and the slabs and steel bars extend out of the wall to form a balcony of "cantilevered slab", so the balcony slab does not need a "counterweight ridge wall". This not only expands the area of the lighting outlet (the doors and windows between the room and the balcony), but also helps to make the balcony a large area of sliding doors.

The simple explanation of "simply supported slab" is that the two sides of the balcony extend out of the beam, and the concrete slab on the beam becomes the balcony slab. The reason for this is that when the balcony board extends out of the size (that is, the balcony is too wide), the use of "cantilevered board" will inevitably increase the thickness, and increasing the thickness will inevitably increase the weight, which is very wasteful and not good-looking (inclined board, the board is thick against the wall, the end edge is thin, and the lower part is an inclined plane). Switching to "Charpy Slabs" can reduce the amount of concrete.

In this case, there is no need for a "counterweight wall" to press the balcony board. "Continuous slab" is a common form of floor slab for continuous multi-span frame structures, and the popular metaphor is like a long bridge with many columns, which is continuous, and the beams are continuous, and there are corresponding "continuous slabs". This type of design is rarely used in general residential balcony panels.

In addition to the brick-concrete structure, many cast-in-place concrete wall panel structures (called shear wall structures) also have walls in the lower part of the windows of residential balcony doors and windows, but this is not a "counterweight wall", but plays a role in the shear resistance of the wall in the seismic calculation. The simple explanation is that if you make a metal frame and push it sideways, it will be deformed in a parallelogram shape, and if you are in a corner and weld a certain area of steel plate, it is not easy to deform. Therefore, the lower wall of the balcony window in this part cannot be removed if it is not a "counterweight wall".

For some people, although they are not demolished, they chiseled off the upper part and reduced the height (usually 900 on the window sill) to 450 or 600, which is also undesirable. There are often radiators and other equipment on the lower wall of the balcony window (because the doors and windows are the weak points that are easy for cold air to penetrate), and removing the lower wall of the balcony window must change the corresponding equipment, which is also an undesirable practice in the house.

Counterweight walls cannot be removed.

The role of the counterweight wall is to press down on the balcony floor slab.

If the counterweight wall is removed, the load capacity of the balcony will be greatly reduced, then the load-bearing capacity of the balcony will be weakened, and its stability will be reduced, which is easy to cause the safety hazard of the balcony collapse. When unexpected factors occur, such as the arrival of a small level**, the same balcony of someone else's house is safe and sound, and the balcony with the removal of the counterweight wall is likely to have problems.

Moreover, after the counterweight wall is removed, the bearing capacity of the balcony will be reduced, and over time, it will also cause the hidden danger of the balcony falling. In addition, the removal of the counterweight wall will also change the original bearing capacity of the house, thus creating a risk of collapse.

Counterweight walls cannot be removed.

The counterweight wall plays a load-bearing role, if we remove it, it will affect the load-bearing of the balcony, etc., and it is more likely to have safety hazards such as balcony falling off, so the counterweight wall cannot be removed.

Under normal circumstances, the property office has a backup house structure plan, and we can go to the property office to consult which walls are load-bearing walls before decoration to determine which walls can be removed. When carrying out wall renovation and demolition, we cannot dig holes in the exterior wall to make doors and windows, because this behavior violates the relevant provisions of the residential decoration management measures. If the exterior wall is a public wall, then it also violates the relevant provisions of the property law.

When we demolish walls, we must not violently demolish them. Some walls are connected to other walls, and if the walls are violently demolished, other walls that do not need to be demolished may be damaged.

When dismantling the wall, it is best to dismantle it from top to bottom, if it is convenient to remove the lower part of the wall first, it is easy to cause the wall to collapse and cause safety accidents. The noise will be made when the premise is removed, so you can reduce the noise by spreading a quilt on the ground.

The reason why it is called the counterweight is that it presses the balcony, and if it is removed, the balcony loses the counterweight and the structure is unstable, and it is easy to break or crack as a whole.

In the renovation of houses, the demolition and renovation of the wall is a major project, and the demolition and modification of the wall of the balcony is the top priority. So which balcony weight walls can be removed? Which walls can't be demolished when renovating? Next, let's introduce the relevant content to you, let's take a look.

1. Concave balcony, concave balcony refers to the balcony board is all recessed into the wall, and the walls on both sides are load-bearing, so the low wall can be removed, that is, the counterweight wall.

2. Half-lifted and semi-concave balcony, which is a balcony with the balcony board partially recessed into the wall, is also load-bearing by the walls on both sides, so the counterweight wall can be removed.

Which walls can not be demolished when renovating.

1. Exterior wall refers to the enclosure of the building, so that it forms an indoor and outdoor boundary structure, called the exterior wall, and the exterior wall of the building also includes the top surface and the ground.

2. Load-bearing wall, in the general brick-concrete structure of the building, the prefabricated panel wall can not be removed or opened to open doors and windows, and the brick wall of more than 24cm also belongs to the load-bearing wall. In addition, the structural column can not be dismantled, nor can it destroy the floor beam and ring beam, let alone add the wall, which will destroy the load-bearing of the wall.

3. The balcony counterweight wall, which plays a role in separating the room from the balcony is called the counterweight wall, and there is usually a door and a window on the counterweight wall, these doors and windows can be dismantled, but the wall below the window can not be moved, and the load-bearing of the balcony depends on the counterweight wall. If this wall is demolished, the load-bearing capacity of the balcony will decrease, which will cause the balcony to fall.

4. The beams and columns of the room are used to support the floor slab, and if they are demolished at will, it is easy to cause the house to collapse.

5. The steel bar of the wall is equivalent to the skeleton of the wall, so the place where the steel bar is buried cannot be moved, otherwise it will affect the bearing capacity of the wall and floor slab, leaving potential safety hazards.

6. Bathrooms and kitchens, there are waterproof layers on the ground in these places, if damaged, it will cause leakage.

The balcony is a special scenery in the home, and if the decoration of the balcony does not meet the needs of the entire home decoration layout, the owner will demolish and modify it. But you must know that the balcony can not be demolished casually, once the improper demolition will cause the consequences of the balcony collapse, so where can the balcony be demolished and where can not be demolished? Let's take a look at the relevant introduction to the demolition and reform of the balcony under the mill banquet!

1. Can the balcony wall of the waistline layer be removed?

The balcony wall of the waist line layer can not be dismantled casually, and the balcony wall does not seem to have much effect, but the balcony wall of the blind silver waist line layer involves the safety of the building structure whether it is a load-bearing wall or a counterweight wall. Once the balcony wall is dismantled casually, it will cause the bearing capacity of the balcony to decrease, causing the balcony to fall.

Removing the counterweight wall will also change the original force of the house structure, resulting in a reduction in the load-bearing capacity of the balcony and even the risk of collapse. Some old balconies are prefabricated structures, and once the counterweight wall is removed, the wall structure of the balcony will be damaged and the bearing capacity of the balcony will be weakened. If it is a load-bearing wall, it carries the safety responsibility of the entire room, and it cannot be dismantled and modified casually.

2. Which balcony counterweight walls can be removed.

Monolithic panel balconies.

If it is a monolithic panel balcony poured together with the original construction, this kind of balcony has been strengthened and constructed, and can carry a large weight, and there is no problem with the general sealing balcony and the installation of glass and lightweight wall tiles, and it can also bear weight. Walls of this type are not counterweight walls and can be removed.

Half-raised and half-recessed balcony.

The balcony slab of the half-lifted and semi-concave balcony is partially recessed into the wall, and the balcony slab is load-bearing by the walls on both sides, and the low wall does not play a load-bearing role, and the entire building structure will not be affected when it is demolished, and it can be removed at this time.

Concave balcony. The balcony slabs of the concave balcony are all recessed into the wall, and the balcony slabs are supported by the walls on both sides, and the low walls can be removed.

In the process of house renovation, the demolition and alteration of the wall is a basic project, especially the demolition of the balcony wall is an important construction project. I believe most people have heard of load-bearing walls, and they also know that this kind of wall should never be demolished. However, many people do not know much about the concept of "counterweight wall", and they are not sure whether it can be dismantled.

So let's talk about the balcony weight wall which can be dismantled and how to remedy it after demolition, interested friends may wish to collect it!

First, the introduction of the counterweight wall.

Normally, there will be a door and a window between the room and the balcony. This door and window can be demolished when it is demolished, but the wall under the window cannot be knocked down. This section of the wall is the counterweight wall, which not only serves to separate the room from the balcony, but also has the effect of lifting the balcony to balance the load of the balcony.

Therefore, the removal of counterweight walls needs to be carried out carefully. It is not that the balcony will fall immediately after it is removed, but that the bearing capacity and stability of the balcony are reduced, and it cannot withstand the test of unexpected natural factors in the future.

Second, which balcony counterweight walls can be removed.

1. Pick a balcony.

Picking the balcony means that the cantilevered balcony slab is supported by the counterweight wall, and the wall can not be removed, otherwise the balcony will crack or fall down in the future. However, it should be noted that if the balcony is supported by a beam underneath, then this counterweight wall can be removed.

2. Concave balcony.

The concave balcony refers to the balcony slabs all recessed into the wall, which are load-bearing by the walls on both sides, so the low wall can be removed, that is, the counterweight wall can be removed.

3. Half-lifted and half-concave balcony.

The half-lifted and semi-concave balcony refers to the balcony board partially recessed into the wall, which is also load-bearing by the walls of the two sides, so the low wall can also be removed, that is, the removal of the counterweight wall is allowed.

Third, the counterweight wall has been demolished and how to make up for it.

After the counterweight wall is removed, the load-bearing capacity of the balcony will be reduced, and over time, it will also cause the hidden danger of the balcony falling. Moreover, the removal of the counterweight wall will also change the original bearing capacity of the house, thus creating a risk of collapse. However, if the counterweight wall is accidentally removed, the remedy is to rebuild or rebuild the wall to ensure the stability of the balcony.

Counterweight walls generally cannot be removed. If it is a balcony, that is, the cantilevered balcony slab is load-bearing by a counterweight wall, this wall is an important counterweight structure, which cannot be dismantled or altered, otherwise the balcony will crack or fall down. The balcony slabs of the concave balcony are all recessed into the wall, and the balcony slabs are supported by the walls on both sides, and the low walls can be removed.

What are the reasons why the load-bearing wall cannot be demolished 1. The load-bearing wall shoulders the task of supporting the weight of the building, from trenching, piling, foundation laying, to pouring beams and columns and building walls, etc., which is a huge and complex work. From the day the building was built, the load-bearing wall was responsible for supporting the building.

2. Demolition of part of the load-bearing wall will inevitably change the load-bearing structure of the original building, so that the various parts of the building are unevenly stressed or the center of gravity is shifted to other parts, which can cause cracks and collapses in the house in serious cases, and even endanger the safety of the house.

3. The load-bearing wall is the wall responsible for supporting the floor slab, starting from the basement, and the load-bearing wall of each house plays a supporting role in the upstairs floor. Otherwise, the upper floor slab or exterior wall will crack unexpectedly, and the floor slab will easily collapse as the crack increases.

4. Even if the house does not collapse, it will shorten its building life, and it will easily become a dangerous building. Depending on the height, size, newness, and density of the building, the time of occurrence of the problem varies.

5. Unless it affects the use of your large area of effective space, otherwise, from the perspective of safety and low carbon, you must not understand the load-bearing wall.

6. If you remove the load-bearing wall, you may need to bear legal responsibility.

I'll help you solve this problem. Hello, it is recommended not to dismantle, safety first. The balcony on the first floor and the counterweight wall of the room are important building components used to support the structure of the house, and if removed, it may affect the structural safety of the entire house.

Therefore, it is not advisable to remove balconies and counterweight walls as a last resort. If demolition is really necessary, it is necessary to strictly abide by the relevant laws and regulations and technical standards, and seek professional engineers or construction teams to carry out the demolition. During the construction process, it is necessary to take detailed calculations and measures to ensure that the process and method of demolition can minimize the impact on the safety of the house structure.

Hello dear dear, a comprehensive inspection and assessment is required before demolition to determine the impact of the demolition on the structure of the house, and to take corresponding reinforcement and repair measures to ensure that the safety of the entire house is not affected.
