ALC lightweight partition board quality common problem: easy to crack! How to prevent it?

Lightweight partition board has been widely used in construction projects, and has many advantages: light weight, high strength, good impact resistance, waterproof, sound insulation, heat insulation and other excellent properties; The surface is flat, the size is accurate and neat, which is convenient for mechanized production and has high production efficiency; Large size, good integrity, and prefabricated construction, high construction efficiency. But at the same time, lightweight partition panels also have a fatal quality problem: they are prone to cracks! What are the causes of installation cracks? And how to prevent it?

1. There is a problem with raw materials

1. Wall panel material

[Problem]

There are cracks and damages in the wallboard material, as shown in the following figure:

Cracked or damaged wall panels

【Prevention and control measures】

(1) In the inspection stage, focus on evaluating the quality control ability of the wallboard factory, and select the fittest.

(2) The wallboard enters the site and strictly implements the five-party acceptance, and selects the yard to avoid damage.

(3) Cracked or damaged wall panels that have been transported to the building are not allowed to be put on the wall and must be removed once found.

2 Mortar material

[Problem]

The special mortar is unqualified or cracks occur when the floor mortar is used, as shown in the following figure:

ALC lightweight partition board quality common problem: easy to crack! How to prevent it?
ALC lightweight partition board quality common problem: easy to crack! How to prevent it?

The special mortar is unqualified

【Handling Measures】

(1) Test the special mortar as required, and the expired one shall not be used.

(2) The special mortar for landing shall not be on the wall to fill the notch.

Second, the early optimization is unreasonable

1. No layout or unreasonable layout

[Problem]

Cracking occurs in the non-standard board, as shown in the following figure:

ALC lightweight partition board quality common problem: easy to crack! How to prevent it?

Cracking of non-standard plates

【Handling Measures】

(1) The cutting surface on the left side of the figure is located in the hole part, which should be avoided in the nesting process, and the cutting position can be changed to the solid place. If such a situation cannot be avoided, the holes of the wall panel should be filled with priority during the wall paneling process.

(2) The part on the right side of the figure that connects with the structure must be full of slurry, and the steel wire mesh of the traditional plastering project must be set in place; The aluminum mold project must be left with an opening to ensure that the position of the plate seam is strengthened by the mesh treatment.

2. Optimization of the electrical box

[Problem]

The electrical box is set on the 100mm wall and cracks, as shown in the following figure:

ALC lightweight partition board quality common problem: easy to crack! How to prevent it?

The location of the electrical box is cracked

【Handling Measures】

(1) Choose a thin box.

(2) The design is optimized within the 200mm wall; The aluminum mold project can be optimized to be partially changed to cast-in-place.

3. Optimization of electromechanical points

[Problem]

The mechanical and electrical points of the wall panel are not fully considered, and the pre-embedding of the door buttress line pipe leads to the lap of the lintel less than 150mm, the installation of multiple wire boxes, the presence of chutes or the second slotting after omission, resulting in cracking, as shown in the following figure:

ALC lightweight partition board quality common problem: easy to crack! How to prevent it?

Pipeline embedded impact, multi-wire box installation

【Handling Measures】

(1) The lintel sample of the door opening in the layout must be completed; Before the construction of the cargo volume area, the layout must be adjusted in time according to the model construction.

(2) Communicate with the design that the multi-wire box is merged into multiple control panels or optimized for cast-in-place.

3. Insufficient on-site control

The site must be constructed in strict accordance with the disclosure, process and deepening drawings, and shall not be changed at will.

1. The squeezing is not full

[Problem]

Cracks appear at the top, seams and corners, door heads, etc., as shown in the following figure:

ALC lightweight partition board quality common problem: easy to crack! How to prevent it?

The top, the seams, the yin and yang corners, and the door head are cracked

【Handling Measures】

(1) Strengthen the control of the process to ensure that the top is full of slurry and properly maintained; Strictly control the time of withdrawal of the cork (7 days in summer and 12-14 days in winter).

(2) The installation and subcontracting of wall panels shall be tracked by professional quality inspectors; During the installation process, the project quality inspector and constructor inspect the wall panel in the installation process; Each wallboard must be fully pulped in place, and the wallboard must be slurred on the wallboard before the wallboard is installed, and the joints shall not be plugged back.

(3) Squeeze the slurry to be full, and paste the reinforced glass fiber mesh according to the requirements; The layout is reviewed as required to avoid non-standard boards.

(4) The side of the lintel must also adopt the squeezing method (PE rods need to be installed to ensure that the slurry does not leak into the hole of the wall panel) to ensure that the slurry on the side is full; The slurry plug at the lower mouth of the lintel needs to be full and dense and the second back pressure; It is recommended to design the surface layer of steel wire mesh reinforcement at the door opening.

2. The maintenance is not in place

[Problem]

Insufficient maintenance leads to insufficient strength and cracking, as shown in the following figure:

ALC lightweight partition board quality common problem: easy to crack! How to prevent it?

Inadequate maintenance

【Handling Measures】

The depth of the first groove filling should not be too large, and it should be controlled 3-5mm below the finished surface of the opening; The special mortar should be used within 2-3 hours after the mixing is completed; After the end of the trough repair, it should be cured for 3-4 days.
