Construction and design method of tension type masonry wall reinforcing structure
By embedding L-shaped steel plates and high-strength steel wires at the corners of masonry walls, the tensioning reinforcement method solves the problems of difficult steel mesh insertion, weak pull-out resistance, and low reinforcement efficiency in existing technologies. This method improves the lateral load resistance and seismic performance of masonry walls while maintaining the building's appearance and adapting to different reinforcement needs.

AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies for reinforcing masonry walls suffer from problems such as difficulty in inserting steel mesh into mortar joints, weak pull-out resistance, insufficient lateral shear resistance, low reinforcement efficiency, and increased wall thickness, resulting in limited improvement in seismic performance.
The reinforcement method combines high-strength steel wire and L-shaped steel plate. A groove is chiseled out at the corner of the masonry wall, filled with polymer mortar, and an L-shaped steel plate is embedded. The high-strength steel wire is inserted into the groove and locked to form an integral tension force system. A polymer mortar surface layer is applied to the surface, and a reinforcement system is constructed by combining it with a secondary connecting rope.
It improves the lateral load resistance and seismic performance of masonry walls, maintains the integrity of the building's appearance, enables targeted reinforcement, and adapts to the needs of different application scenarios.
