What were you doing on May 12, 2008?


Are you studying at school, running around for a living, or are you snoring in the summer lunch break?


A day that was extremely ordinary was no longer ordinary because of one thing.


At 14:28 on May 12, 2008, an earthquake of magnitude 8.0 occurred in Wenchuan, Sichuan.


12 years of Wenchuan earthquake


69,227 people were killed, 374,643 were injured and 17,923 were missing. These figures have become a pain that we cannot speak of.


Twelve years later, we still remember the experience and panic, helplessness and rescue that happened on this scarred land, and we also marveled at the love and rebirth that happened on this land.


But this disaster not only witnessed the Nirvana of people, but also witnessed the development of earthquake-resistant reinforcement technology.


Some people say, "It's not the earthquake but the building that kills people."

According to statistics, more than 90% of the casualties in the Wenchuan earthquake were caused by the collapse of buildings. The earthquake caused about 5.5 million houses to collapse, nearly 6 million houses were seriously damaged, and more than 15 million damaged houses. On the days when the mountains were shaken, in a house collapsed, the "dangerous building" reinforced by Sangzao Middle School in Anxian County, Sichuan Province stood still, and the teachers and students of the school were "0" casualties. This is the meaning of earthquake resistance to our lives.


After that, 3.65 million damaged urban and rural houses were repaired and strengthened in the Wenchuan earthquake-stricken area, and the reconstruction of 1.5 million damaged farm houses was completed. The earthquake resistance standards of schools and hospitals are even higher than local civil buildings by 1 degree fortification ...

Now, they have gradually become the safest and most reassuring buildings in the hearts of local people.


The building reinforcement is also little known before 2008, and ushered in new opportunities for development.


As Horse Construction, which was founded before the Wenchuan Earthquake and is committed to providing users with safety reinforcement materials, we strive to make the simplest idea of "safety" to the extreme, and have a foundation in ordinary and subtle places. Building structure is the last line of defense to protect the safety of building structure. Horse Construction always upholds the mission of "manufacturing the highest quality reinforcement materials, eliminating the hidden dangers of concrete safety, saving lives and buildings". Everyone at Horse Construction is insisting on creating reinforced products. Every test, every technology, every product, we strive for excellence. The ultimate goal is to ensure the safety and quality of every construction project using Hummer reinforcement materials. Building reinforcement has a long way to go, and we have never left this path of seeking. A tear of anti-seismic reinforcement fell on a person's head, which is a sea of ocean. And we have been swimming for 12 years.
