Is it really useful to put "rice" tape on the window in response to the typhoon? Is there any other way to deal with it?
First, is this really effective?
The answer is: yes.
When the typhoon comes, there are three main reasons for the glass to burst: first, it is broken by the impact of floating debris in the air; Second, because the wind speed is too large, it vibrates with the glass, breaking the glass; Third, the outer frame was deformed by strong wind, resulting in broken glass.
Sticking adhesive tape on the glass window can interfere with the natural frequency of the glass, reduce the probability of ringing effect, and then reduce the probability of breakage. Even if the glass is broken in a typhoon, it can prevent the debris from splashing and hurting people, which is safer.
As early as 20 18, the TV media conducted a field test on the wind resistance of glass: under the wind force of 12, ordinary glass was blown out quickly, and the scattered glass did great harm to indoor personnel; However, after sticking the "Mi" tape, the glass will break under the action of 13 wind, but it will not cause scattered damage and reduce the damage to indoor personnel.
Then the problem comes: there are many ways to stick glue on the window in typhoon weather, such as "meter", "cross", "X" and "well". Which shape is the most effective? In addition, there are many types of adhesive tapes. What kind of tape should I choose to provide the best protection?
The answer is: It is best to stick the tape diagonally or in the shape of "M", and it is best to stick it outside the window frame, so that the glass center has a better support point. In addition, the protective effect of "M"-shaped tape is related to its thickness. It is necessary to choose a tape with a certain thickness and elasticity, so the yellow sealing tape has a better effect.
Second, wet newspaper or plastic wrap glass can replace adhesive tape.
What should I do if the whole street is sold out because of the typhoon?
Do not use wet newspaper or plastic wrap, spray wet water on the glass door and window, and then spread the plastic wrap or newspaper commonly used in the family. Good explosion-proof and shatterproof effect, easy to clean after typhoon. Just take off the plastic wrap.
Third, other ways to deal with typhoon days.
Typhoon Du Surui is approaching. In addition to preventing glass doors and windows from breaking, everyone needs to be alert to other risks.
Household preparation supplies
Spread absorbent cotton towels such as towels near the window seams and balcony seams in advance, and there will be water leakage in case of heavy rainfall.
Check the safety of electrical appliances, gas and other facilities, and park the vehicle in an open area where water is not easy to accumulate. The most common causes of vehicle damage in typhoon days are floods and blown debris.
Before the typhoon comes, it is necessary to clean up the sundries placed on the windowsill, balcony and roof in time to avoid damaging vehicles or pedestrians and causing property losses.
Material reserve goods
1. Prepare a proper amount of candles, lighters, etc. There will be a power outage on a strong typhoon day.
2. Prepare a certain amount of drinking water, fruits and vegetables that are easy to store, snacks that you like to eat, and keep the amount for about three or four days, without too much material.
3. Spare commonly used household drugs in case they are unwell during the typhoon and cannot be used in time.
4. Flashlight, candle, charging treasure (fully charged), it would be better if there is a radio. Don't worry about electricity. In severely affected areas, mobile phones may have no signal, and radios will become the key to receiving important information. First aid kit (disinfectant, gauze, hemostatic bandage, scissors), hammer, axe, stick and other emergency rescue tools are also necessary.
5. Download your favorite novels or film and television drama resources in advance, and calm down after disconnecting from the Internet. Don't be impatient.
Pay attention to going out.
If you can't avoid going out, you must pay attention to the following points!
1. Don't stay outdoors for too long, and don't take shelter from the rain under unstable buildings such as billboards/telephone poles.
2. Pay attention to judging the terrain. Too much rainfall is easy to cause urban water accumulation. If there is a puddle on the road, it may be a manhole cover.
Washed away by the rainstorm, we must make a detour.
There is no rain in the center of the typhoon eye, but don't go into battle lightly, it will rain heavily as soon as the typhoon eye passes.
Typhoon after typhoon, whether you stay at home or go out, you must pay attention to safety! In case of danger, call your district or community power grid rescue team for help! !
