Chapter 305 Mu Chi

There are really too few people engaged in wooden building design in the state. Even if there are occasional structural designers of wooden buildings, they are used to design antique buildings and can do modern wooden buildings, especially the structural design of this kind of high-rise modern wooden buildings. People are a thousand times rarer than giant pandas.

In fact, there may not be more than ten people in the entire state, and only two of them are in Xu City.

An architecture professor at Xucheng University and his direct disciple were nicknamed the mad duo by their peers in the industry.

When Deng Yali saw the two of them, he could hardly believe that they were also professors from Xucheng University.

Among the two professors he knew from Xucheng University, Nong Lixin had always been an authority in the industry and was very high-spirited. Even the down-and-out Gong Liubo was not as down-and-out as the master and apprentice. He looked like a homeless man.

The two of them stayed in a musty-smelling laboratory with almost no sunlight. The entire laboratory was filled with models of various wooden buildings. The unkempt master and apprentice were busy building a strange-looking building with pale faces. It looked like it hadn't seen sunlight in two months.

Although the structural designer is at the forefront of the entire architectural design, as long as it is architectural design, it is indispensable to deal with the construction site. It seems that these two people have not been in contact with the construction site for a long time.

At that moment, Deng Yali almost turned around and left. It’s okay not to be a designer who talks on paper and has no projects.

But as soon as he turned around, he saw the wooden model where two people were busy.

It is a building that looks like a honeycomb. The entire building is supported by a hexagonal grid. It is exquisite, light and agile.

Deng Yali is also a veteran in the construction industry. The moment he saw the model, he was deeply attracted by the building.

At that moment, he had a feeling: "Ah, this is the wooden building I want!"

After Deng Yali explained his purpose, both of them almost thought that Deng Yali was crazy.

A school built entirely of wood? And we need to build seven floors?

In the state, building wooden buildings can be said to be thankless, let alone such over-the-limit buildings!

And dormitories with wooden buildings?

If it can really be built, maybe it will be published in the "Architectural Journal" and win the Pritzker Architecture Prize!

But under Deng Yali's silver bullet offensive, the two people still took over the design task and made a structural design according to the material parameters given by Deng Yali. Then Deng Yali took the architectural design and submitted it for review non-stop, and got it as quickly as possible. Got the building permit.

"So..." Listening to Deng Yali's explanation of the identities of the two people, Mayor Jia was puzzled, "Why do they say you are a liar? Lao Deng, don't you give people design fees? This is not okay!"

"No, he gave me the design fee..." Professor Li took a sip at Deng Yali and threw a bank card on the ground: "This is the one million design fee you gave me. I will give the money back to you!"

"Teacher, you can't return the card to others, you have to transfer the money to them!" said his student next to him.

"I'll tell you the password and you go and transfer the money. I'd rather die poor than take the money from a liar like you!" Professor Li glared at Deng Yali.

"Old Deng, how on earth did you lie to others?" Mayor Jia wondered, "And this professor, did you misunderstand something? I know Lao Deng, and he won't lie to others..."

"Bah, I can't lie to people? You don't know how hateful this mayor is! By the way, let me introduce our profession now. We structural designers specialize in designing the structure of buildings. Buildings must How high the building should be, what structure should be used, how thick the pillars should be, how thick the beams should be, what the seismic resistance level should be, and how strong the wind force should be, we all have to calculate it first..."

"Boss Deng told us that they used a brand-new wood and provided us with the test parameters of this wood. Guess what? The compression resistance of this wood exceeds that of ordinary cement, and its tensile strength is ordinary Twice the steel used in construction! Then let’s use this parameter to design the building structure of a school..."

Professor Li regretted: "It's also my fault that I was obsessed with money for a while. I thought that although the design fee is not high, it can at least maintain the laboratory for a while, so I took it..."

He lowered his head and paused: "Tell me, how can this kind of wood exist! Its compressive strength is stronger than cement, and its tensile strength is stronger than steel bars. Then what kind of steel-concrete structure do you need? What kind of new cement do you need? What if in this world? With such excellent wood, what’s the matter with those designers of steel and concrete structures! How can wood have better performance than steel and concrete! It’s just wood!”

He pointed to the busy construction site: "If the school building is built according to this specification, I am afraid that the school building will collapse as soon as the students enter..."

Mayor Jia finally understood, and he exclaimed: "Mr. Deng, what's going on! Brother Zhuang trusts you so much, how could you do this... No matter what you do, you can't take the lives of the children." Take an adventure..."

Deng Yali put his hand on his forehead, looked at Professor Li who was impassioned and full of indignation, and then looked at Mayor Jia who was glaring at him. He didn't know how to explain it.

Forget it, facts speak louder than words. Deng Yali turned around, walked to the truck next to him, took out a piece of wood from the truck, and handed it to Professor Li: "This is the kind of wood I'm talking about. Does it have that kind of performance? Take it back and take a test and you will know. This is my fault. I should have provided you with some materials..."

Professor Li originally glared at Deng Yali, but the moment he saw the wood, his eyes straightened.

At night, the Milky Way maple is really like the Milky Way on a summer night, shining with silver light.

He subconsciously reached out and touched the board, weighed it, showed a surprised look, and then bit it.

Teeth are the hardest part of the human body. Even if it is a piece of iron, teeth can leave some traces on it. Yinhe Maple is no exception, but the shallow traces are almost negligible. The moment the teeth are released, Almost disappeared.

Therefore, Professor Li gnawed a few times, but there was no trace on the board.

"This...this...you are lying! This thing is definitely not wood, it must be some kind of light alloy, made to look like a wooden board. I know all wood, and I have never seen anything like you..."

Deng Yali spread his hands.

What should I do if you don’t believe me? I can’t explain it!

Then, I saw Professor Li take out a flashlight and a small magnifying glass from his pocket. He lay on the wooden board and studied it like he was studying jewelry: "It looks like the pattern of maple wood, but maple wood doesn't have this silver sparkle." …”

He stuck out his tongue and licked it: "It has a slightly sweet taste. Is it the sugar maple tree?"

The master and the apprentice murmured on the ground for a long time, then turned around and ran away with the board in hand: "I'll go back to the laboratory, you... you can't do the construction. I'm warning you in the name of a structural architect. If you dare to do the construction, I will I’ll sue you!”

The workers all looked at each other, so what should we do now?

Two hours later, Professor Li emerged from the night feverishly and hugged Deng Yali: "Mr. Deng, oh my dear Mr. Deng, is this kind of wood still available? Is it still available?"
