Building a house: how to build a wall for wiring?

During the construction work is often performed, the quality of which affects the overall result. For example, to build a network of electrocommunications, you need to know how to wall the wall for wiring. This process is the execution of grooves (shtrobs), in which the cables of power grids will run. To carry out these works, special equipment is used and some skills in construction are needed. Let's consider this process in some detail.

Tools Used

Before considering the question of how to bend a wall for wiring, it will be useful to find out which tools are used for these jobs, their names are listed in the following list:

1. Shtroborez manual. This device is produced in two types - the first tool is a device with a curved handle and a two-side cutter (recommended for use on horizontal surfaces) and the second tool is a straight form with two holders (it is often used on cellular concrete walls).
2. Electric shtruborez. This device is equipped with a cutting tool (usually a rotary wheel with teeth) and rubber rollers, facilitating its movement. The device is mainly used for the treatment of hard surfaces.
3. Punch. In this case, you can use a conventional drill bit and a special nozzle. In order to know how to wall the wall for wiring using the second version of the device, experience is needed. Whereas with a regular drill, even beginners can pierce the grooves.
4. Electric saw with a tip of diamond.

Performance of works

In order to know how to wall the wall for wiring, you need to outline the lines along which the grooves will be located. This can be done using a level, ruler and pencil. Perform a penalty (groove) can be one of the listed in the list of tools. In the case of using a manual shroud, when laying a horizontal track under the lower line, you can install a rail. This will greatly facilitate the execution of work.

When using a perforator, it is necessary to make holes along the planned lines, with the drill you can use the usual (crown). After that, you need to switch the device into hammer mode and make a groove. If you use a special nozzle, you can perform work without holes.

When performing shtrobleniya work with electric saws, it is better to perform the marking by two guiding lines, making them parallel to each other with an interval of about 3 cm. Using these marks, make cuts in the wall with the help of "Bulgarka", and knock out the middle with a perforator in the hammer mode.

Additional Information

In order to know how to properly wall the wall, the following information will be useful:

1. When drilling walls of concrete, there are often cases where in the place of work the elements of the reinforcement are made of steel. This greatly complicates the process of shtrobleniya. To avoid such situations, before applying lines of location of future wiring, it is better to conduct research using a portable metal detector.
2. When drilling grooves, wear protective goggles and a mask or respirator so that dust and small particles do not enter the body.
3. In order to reduce the level of dust when working with tools, you can simultaneously moisten the stump area. However, this will complicate the process of making grooves, since moisture slows down and drills heavier.
4. It is also possible the question arises as to whether it is possible to shroud the bearing walls. The answer to it is contained in building regulations, where it is indicated that these works are strictly prohibited. This is because the load-bearing walls are designed taking into account all the loads that may arise during the operation of the building. In case of violation of integrity (in particular drilling) additional loads may arise, which in turn will lead to the destruction of the structure.

Correct performance of works is the key to obtaining a qualitative result, in this case, it is better to conduct the wall shutting with preliminary calculation of the location of electrical networks. In this case, the choice of the processing method and the drilling tool also affects the final result.
