What is the Wall Post?
Wall post is a kind of coil that is used for the cohesion of the wall and the wall support member inside the building. from the wall into the frame and skeleton, and because of this, the residents feel less vibration, also the wall posts prevent the destruction and collapse of the wall.
Types of Wall Post
The post wall is divided into two categories: vertical post wall and horizontal post wall. The way vertical and horizontal wall posts work is in such a way that it creates conflict between the wall and the skeleton and as a result strengthens the wall.
The types of wall posts are divided into different categories in terms of performance. As it was mentioned before, one of the methods of implementing the wall post is by using roll bolts. Other methods of its implementation include belting around the column, connecting the wall to the column by using rebar, restraining the wall by embedding rebar inside the columns, using rebar on the floor to restrain the wall, restraining the wall by passing the rebar. Inside the holes of the molds and the execution of the wall post as a parapet, pointed out.
The type of wall post connection should be such that the vertical components in the roof and floor of the building are restrained. For this purpose, before concreting inside the molds, the plate is replaced and after the concreting is finished, the plates are used to install the wall posts. Another method of replacing plates is the use of anchor bolts.
The most important purpose of using the Wall Post
The most important purpose for using wall posts is to prevent out-of-plane deformation of non-structural walls. The wall post has no role to bear lateral loads caused by earthquakes. The importance of using wall posts is to prevent damage to the main parts of the structure such as beams, columns and ceilings. Their task is to transfer the forces resulting from wind and earthquakes from the wall to the frame, which causes the wall to not be destroyed. In general, its connection at the end connected to the frame is in the form of a bean for the installation process and on the foundation as a joint.
Wall post is implemented in different parts such as concrete building, metal frame and cement blocks. In the following, we will give more details about each of them.
How to Run Wall Post in Concrete Skeleton
In order to implement the wall post in the concrete frame, first the location and construction of the wall post must be determined according to the plan. Then, the connection sheets are installed on the floor and ceiling. It should be noted that the installation distance of the wall post was kept empty during the execution of the wall. Next, when lining up the blocks in both rows, you should use a fastener and connect two separate walls together.
After finishing the construction of the wall, use four rebars and fix We weld to the sheets used in the floor and ceiling. After doing this, we connect the rebars to the brackets using the reinforcing wire and form the two sides of the wall. At this stage, we pour concrete into the molds and at the end, after opening the molds, we will have a post wall corresponding to the thickness of the wall.
How to Run Metal Post Wall in Style Block
In the execution of the metal postal wall in light blocks, you must first check the floor and ceiling sheets and locate according to the map. After doing this, install the connection sheets and weld the wall to the lower and upper sheets. Then, on one side, make the block completely and on the other side, make the Wall Post from the block.
How to Run Wall Post in Steel Skeleton
In general, it can be said that the way of implementing the wall post in the metal frame is in such a way that the wall post in the metal frame is connected to the beam and column by welding.
