Heart with glazed tiles

Chapter 22
Because he lived across from Chu Liuli's residential area, Pan Rongxuan couldn't help creating chance encounters with Chu Liuli.Even if he just looked at her from a distance, he was content.

A few months later, Chu Liuli finally participated in the renovation of the Hall of Supreme Harmony as Wu Yongzhao's assistant.However, the restoration of the colored paintings has not yet officially started, and it is currently in the early stage of exploration.Although Chu Liuli, who was engaged in "actual combat", was very tired, she was happy in her heart.Repairing colored paintings requires not only a pair of skillful hands, but also the ingenuity to pursue excellence.From on-site surveys, figure out patterns, to making atlases, every link is a subject.

Following experts and teachers, Chu Liuli went to the site for investigation many times.Before participating in the repair project, Chu Liuli’s daily workplace was the office of the Repair Skill Center. Now, her workplace is nearly 40 meters above the ground. Under the scorching sun, the surface temperature of glazed tiles can reach nearly 70 degrees. .The first time she climbed up, Chu Liuli encouraged herself again and again, but when she really stood on a high place, she couldn't contain her violent heartbeat and trembling legs.At this moment, she understood her father's worries at the beginning.

On-site survey is an important link in the early stage of scheme design. Whether the survey process is rigorous and careful will directly affect the analysis of survey results.Chu Liuli didn't dare to relax in the slightest. She remembered Wu Yongzhao telling her that she must pay attention to the investigation of hidden places such as behind the plaque and above the Pilu Mao. These places are more likely to have relics of early colored paintings.

After careful investigation, they found that on the outer eaves of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the colorful paintings painted in the 60s and [-]s of the last century were randomly decorated, which did not match the original appearance of history, while the inner eaves of the Hall of Supreme Harmony still preserved the appearance of the middle and early Qing Dynasty. Therefore, it is necessary to redo the colored paintings on the outer eaves to reproduce the historical style.

At the scene, the experts in charge of the repair project organized them to discuss on the spot. Chu Liuli listened and felt that they had benefited a lot.

"The colored paintings inside the Hall of Supreme Harmony are well preserved and do not need to be repainted, but the external colored paintings need to be repainted. Moreover, it can be seen that the external colored paintings have been slightly changed during the past repair process. , need to make some minor revisions.” Mr. Li, who is in charge of the renovation project of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, said first.

"I agree with Teacher Li's point of view. The color paintings of the Hall of Supreme Harmony are regulated to the highest level of the royal family - 'Golden Dragon and Seal'. Historically, the external color paintings of the Hall of Supreme Harmony have indeed been modified. Although the level of the outer color paintings has not been lowered , but the degree of delicacy is different from that of the colored paintings in the palace, we need to completely change the inconsistency between inside and outside for this repair." Wu Yongzhao took the lead in agreeing, and others also echoed...

After several days of continuous investigation outdoors, although Chu Liuli had applied sunscreen, she could still see that her face was a little tanned.And when she got home at night, she felt pain in her bones.Seeing her daughter like this, Guo Yajuan felt very distressed, and regretted supporting her daughter to repair the skill center.Chu Liuli didn't take it seriously, she felt that she was new to this job and needed to exercise, and it would be fine when she got used to this working state.

Guo Yajuan liked Pan Rongxuan very much, and when she had a headache, she would subconsciously ask him what medicine he should take.During the chat, she mentioned that Chu Liuli was sore from climbing the height, and Pan Rongxuan took it to heart.

That night, Chu Liuli was lying on the bed reading a book, and received a message from Pan Rongxuan: "Liuli, I heard from my aunt that you haven't been feeling well these few days. Come to me when you have time. I'll give you acupuncture."

Chu Liuli asked: "Can acupuncture relieve body pain?"

"Of course I can. I'll give you acupuncture at Hegu, Quchi, and Chize points. I promise you won't be tired or hurt after the acupuncture. Liuli, you have sore muscles. You can also massage or apply hot compresses to the sore parts. The effect." Pan Rongxuan said earnestly.

Chu Liuli thought for a while, and replied to the message: "I'm too busy these days, I don't have time, can I go on weekends? Do you go to work?"

"I'm waiting for work anytime!" Pan Rongxuan didn't think about it, as long as she could go, he would be there, even on weekends for colleagues.

After confirming the time for acupuncture with Pan Rongxuan, Chu Liuli put the phone aside casually, gradually feeling sleepy...

On another Monday, the hospital organized a meeting between the expert group and the repair team. At the meeting, each group reported the progress of the work and also reflected the difficulties encountered in the repair process.

Xiao Zhou from the Ministry of Ancient Construction spoke first, and he raised the issue of strengthening mortise and tenon joints.Xiao Zhou and his colleagues found that there was a serious problem of mortise sinking in the three times of the Hall of Supreme Harmony along the beam. The parts are intact.

"That's a good question! Do you have any ideas for solving this problem? Let's hear it!" Xiao Zhou's speech caught Chu Zhiwei's attention. He looked at him and asked.

Seeing that the god-level expert he has always respected spoke, Xiao Zhou did not dare to neglect, and quickly replied: "Teacher, I searched the relevant literature, and combined with the finite element analysis method, I established a mechanical analysis model of the beam. I found that the tenon damaged The main reason is that the weight transmitted to the beam from the roof is too large, which leads to local damage of the mortise. The reason why the damage occurs at the joint of the mortise and tenon, while other parts of the beam are intact, the main reason is that the mortise and the mortise were cut off during the production process. part of the section, reducing the resistance of that part."

After hearing Xiao Zhou's answer, Chu Zhiwei nodded repeatedly.His affirmation inspired Xiao Zhou, and he continued: "After repeated research and comparison, I have several feasible reinforcement solutions here, and I would like to ask teachers to give their opinions."

After finishing speaking, he sent the organized plans to the several carpentry experts present.

In the end, after the demonstration of several carpentry experts including Chu Zhiwei, the project adopted the traditional "Dragon Gate" roofing method to strengthen the parallel beams, which can keep the reinforced parallel beams intact for a long time.

After the meeting ended, Chu Zhiwei walked up to Xiao Zhou and asked with a smile: "Xiao Zhou, if I remember correctly, you are in charge of the safety analysis and evaluation of ancient building structures, right?"

"That's right, teacher, I'm in charge of this work!" Xiao Zhou replied.

"Not bad, work hard!" Chu Zhiwei encouraged.

"Don't worry, teacher, I was able to participate in such an important repair project when I first came to our hospital. I cherish this opportunity very much, and I must do it well!" Xiao Zhou Zhong said angrily.

Chu Zhiwei patted him on the shoulder in relief, and left with a smile.

Xiao Zhou is a newcomer to the Ministry of Ancient Construction. He graduated from Beijing University of Technology with a master's degree. His major is disaster prevention and mitigation and protection engineering, focusing on building structure analysis and safety assessment.Before graduation, he and several classmates participated in a talent recruitment fair. At this large-scale talent recruitment fair, he submitted multiple resumes, one of which was sent to the Palace Museum.

Soon, an architectural design institute decided to hire him.Just as he was preparing to become an architect, the Palace Museum also offered him an olive branch.Although he had only been to the Forbidden City once before, the world's largest mysterious ancient palace complex still had a great attraction for him.He gave up his career prospects in architectural design and came to the Forbidden City,
In this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Xiao Zhou was deeply impressed by the architectural wisdom of the ancients, and at the same time began to think about how to better protect these magnificent ancient palaces.After the repair project started, Xiao Zhou conducted a series of "physical examinations" for the Hall of Supreme Harmony, which provided an important construction basis for the overhaul of the Hall of Supreme Harmony from a safety perspective. "

In the courtyard, there are many juniors like Xiao Zhou who love to study and think hard, which makes Chu Zhiwei very gratified and sees hope.
