Transverse groove on the wall
Thread Content
Recently, during construction work in the company’s production area and renovation work in the residential area, grooves cut horizontally into the walls were discovered. In the construction area, the toilet water supply pipes were installed concealed; as a result, large horizontal grooves with considerable depth appeared inside the toilets, in the non-load-bearing walls ； The electrical conduits in the living area are installed concealed, and cross-cut grooves have also appeared; fortunately, they are relatively shallow, as it’s a load-bearing wall! I would like to ask the experts: what is the basis for not allowing transverse grooves? Are there many such violations? Is it harmless to use mortar for reliable filling after cutting? What specific harmful consequences can transverse grooves bring? Last edited by Lai Lai on 2009-3-28 11:45]
Cross-cut slots affect the strength of load-bearing walls, so their use is generally not permitted
