The invention discloses a wall reinforcing structure and method for improving the integrality of historic buildings. According to the wall reinforcing structure and method, the characteristics that most historic buildings are of brick concrete structures, no ring beam is used, and dead loads are large are considered, walls are reinforced through the reinforcing scheme based on offsite component prefabricating and site assembling, and the historic buildings are prevented from being continuously collapsed by vibration. By means of the wall reinforcing structure and method, the structure integrality can be improved, when vibration loads are externally and suddenly exerted, deformation of the walls is effectively controlled, and continuous collapse caused by overall instability of the historic buildings is prevented. Meanwhile, the wall reinforcing structure and method have the advantages of being high in reversible degree, free of working with naked fire in a site, easy to operate, convenient to apply, free of damage to historic building bodies and the like, the effective protection effect can be achieved when the historic buildings and particularly key cultural relics distributed in urban areas with dense buildings are influenced by construction technologies, with vibration characteristics, of municipal administration dismantling projects, metro building blasting projects, metro building deep foundation pit excavation projects, metro building large-diameter pile foundation construction and the like, and the wall reinforcing structure and method have the wide application prospects in the aspect of preventing extreme damage conditions, such as continuous collapse, of the historic buildings.
