Difficult
30 Articles landslide disaster repair construction before the first rule
According to survey data, relying on the Second Temple of the landslide is about 160 meters wide and 110-160 m, the maximum thickness of 30 meters, with a total volume of about 30 million cubic meters.
Drawings of ancient buildings are in, just down the housing collapse and recover the pillars and other components installed. The difficulty of ancient buildings can be the basis of reinforcement. Although there is a granite area, but the granite is unique, the structure is sand, very loose. Because of the tendency to slide, you must do first geological disaster control, and reinforce the mountain in order to make the above construction safety, which is one of the most difficult repair procedures.
The most stable
Thousands of root debris piles withstand flash floods
"Governance landslide, mainly in the main pile, the entire mountain into a total of 1 meter in diameter, depth of 30-57 meters of the 160 piles."
In order to form a whole mountain landslide, Liaoning, non-ferrous metal engineering company based on the Second Temple restoration project assignment, project manager, said Zhao Wenbo, they used mechanical digging holes, playing along the Minjiang River side of 1 meter in diameter piles of 72, while ancient building basis, the manual digging scored 141 piles.
In 10 months, "the mountain also into the root diameter of more than 1000 meters below the path of 0.5 pile, root pile, all kinds of bolt, cable 650 roots, loose soil to keep a firm hold." Fan Yu said extension and reinforcement project also withstood last year's "8.13" large flash and the "8.19" debris flow in the raid, not a dangerous place.
Widest
Indonesia imports up to 60 cm diameter, giant trees for a column
Second Temple is a typical ancient building structure in western Sichuan Chuan Dou, interlocking. Group study found that construction of the longest Lao Jundian, but is affected by the lightest of the last century brick wooden dressing mix when the destruction of buildings used by the most serious.
Engineering supervision unit, the ancient wood and stone architecture firm Hebei supervising engineer, said Liu Dongguang for this article insisted that security experts have abandoned brick columns, wood columns and good recovery earthquake.
Maintenance and construction units, Quanzhou, ancient coral construction company General Manager Liu told reporters the mountains, the ancient building repair is very difficult to find the special timber, and the main hall, the second Temple, Temple Lingguan larger than the body such as the construction of the column hardness, length requirements for a higher and later imported from Indonesia called "pineapple grid" of wood, a foot in diameter and 60 cm, only to meet the rehabilitation requirements.
Oldest
Ancient medicine injection in structures used Qicheng
Second Temple's restoration, with 70% of the original component, the most difficult part is to make it after the repair is still the "old".
Take the Second Temple of Menbian that it had broken in the earthquake in half vertically, then returned to his restored position. Second Temple of all components, whether newly made or repaired, have been the doing the old treatment. Serious pests and diseases encountered in the old structures, need to use needles in the solution injected into the wood, painted with fire retardant paint later, and then to the repair.

Repair report
How long repair time?
Cultural pieces found on the record, the light is nearly half a year cleaning up debris
Reporter: Dujiangyan scenic spot has already opened its doors a lot, why is the second king of the temple took nearly three years to re-open?
Xu Jun ( Dujiangyan Municipal Cultural Relics Bureau, Executive Director): Second Temple Conservation Project experienced a clean row of risk, geological disaster control, body repair old buildings, improve the disaster prevention system of several stages. To use only clean up the rubble for nearly half a year.
Modern buildings collapsed, the construction waste shovel on it. But the ancient buildings, in particular the maintenance of heritage buildings, construction on the requirements of excellence. Must first pieces in the rubble looking for artifacts, once discovered, must take pictures, draw, make written records, it is very time-consuming. The entire restoration project is very large, determine its duration of at least 3 years.
How small repair work?
Petal of a small bird, with a sieve in the Amoy fragments in the gravel
Reporter: What kind of repair works to the level of detail?
Xu Jun: What ancient building material originally used to repair the same material required Shihai. Moreover, we must all be owned by the collapse of the object position, small petal, a bird, should re-fix up and maintain its original location.
This fine, not only for the protection of heritage itself, will also leave a message to the next fix, so the ancient information passed down from generation to generation.
"Deep scouring beaches and low weir," the sixth after the earthquake almost a cliff fragments. At that time we organized more than 30 workers, with a sieve in the collection of debris in the gravel, with two weeks time to collect complete.
Repair And how hard?
One day one hundred meters tall to climb twice, three live in board room down Rheumatology
Reporter: Is there any particular people and things that make you memorable?
Xu Jun: touched me the most is that the last three years, heritage experts have long held in the Riverside's board room, not only face the risk of aftershocks, many people still suffering from rheumatism. Of these, nearly 70-year-old Liu Dongguang the most serious, one fall ill to get out of bed the next day. Liu, fifty years old also came to a rheumatism mountain.
Every day, Liu, mountains and under the site with the workers, wearing a red helmet has been slightly white, all reveal the bulk of the toe shoes. His skill not inferior to young people up to tens of meters in the hall roof, concrete workers methodically guide the work, sometimes climbing up and down several times his daily, equivalent to twice a day climbing meters tall.
