Build your own indoor climbing wall

"...We simply nailed the wood waste. It was a 26-foot-tall guy, very rough, but for us, it was the rock wall to the north of the Eiger, EICapitan and Mount Everest." ... is a place to dream and play..." - Ramsay Thomas

Also for the purpose of dreaming, I have finally presented here the information I could gather on my own climbing wall. This article is based on the "BuildingYourOwnIndoorClimbingWall" written by Ramsay Thomas in 1995 and the "HomeClimbingGyms" published by Climbing magazine in 1988. Two books. Due to the fact that the two books have different focuses, some of the details involved in the book are not in line with the actual situation in China. Therefore, I took the two books together and added some of my own experience. Online related information. Although the style of the original text is respected as much as possible, copyright and other matters are not considered. It is only hoped that the dream climbers will have a beautiful big bed that can be dreamed at an early date.

We should be lucky because only a few adventurous sports can be practiced at home. Want to play surfing, can you build a wavemaking machine in your bathtub? How is skydiving? When you want to build a vertical airway, think about the trouble you will encounter. And it is entirely possible for you to build a climbing gym in your own home because it is cheap, simple, and most importantly, you can do it.

A home climbing gym can increase your strength, endurance, and skill, or at least keep fit. You can re-adjust the rock on the wall according to your own weaknesses and build a suitable route. This will enable you to continue to progress and maintain the passion of training. On the other hand, a home gym can help you make better use of your time. The time and money you spend on driving to a field climbing place or a commercial rock wall, and the time and money used to climb the mountains, can now be spent on your own fitness site. You can even cut it off at rest. Bureau CS.

There are many ways to build an interior wall; some are quite easy but most of them are a bit difficult. The advantage of this type of climbing wall introduced in the manual is that the construction method is quite simple, and the materials and tools used are very common. (An outdoor wall can be built using similar materials and methods, but some natural factors of wind and rain are also taken into account. For these, you need to consult an engineer to get the relevant answer.) Build the wall itself Although it is not particularly complicated, it will still be harder, and it will also require certain skills in carpentry work. Let your friends join in. You will find that besides being exhausted, there will be lots of fun.

RamsayThomas wrote in his book “BuildingYourOwnIndoorClimbingWall”: “The first rock wall I built was built with a friend in a cowshed 20 years ago. We simply nailed the wood waste. It was a 26-foot-tall guy. It was very rough, but for us, it was the rock wall to the north of the Eiger, EICapitan and Mount Everest. It was a ladder that could be reached, But for me, it is a place where I can dream and play. For these reasons, it is important for me to design a rock wall and build it out. I suggest that you also try it."

Is the space big enough?

The ideal construction site for your home rock climbing ground is a garage that can park four cars and has a height of 6 meters. There is a vertical air-conditioner next to the shower room. Every hour in the morning, the trade union cleans the floor and the bottles are taken away. Sort the CDs that were heard last night...

"Wait when I am the boss!" But this is a serious problem. You may not be able to have a large garage or yard like a foreigner, but your rich imagination and the fanaticism of climbing can always make you The loan room in the one-bedroom office became more attractive. Which buddy’s parent’s unit has a derelict storehouse or factory building is even more brilliant. If you can buy your room manager, let him agree to let you renovate the top stairwell...

Tony Yaniro once built a rock wall in the bedroom on the second floor of his apartment in Las Vegas. The success of Tony's 5.13 difficulty course on the limestone near Charleston Hill proves that even a wall with only three splints can sometimes change his destiny.

The external wall is not good. You cannot control the environment to obtain the desired light, nor can you prevent some of the factors that cause damage to the building's exterior panels and other supports. For these reasons, we do not recommend the use of external walls for this purpose.

Regardless of where you decide to build your rock wall, you should consider it to be at least 2.5 meters high and at least 2.5 meters wide. The depth, which is the distance from the bottom of the rock wall to the furthest point where you may slip off, should be at least 3 meters. If it is less than this distance, you may hit the wall or the obstacle behind you when you fall.

What needs to be strongly emphasized is that the dark rock wall can not stimulate the enthusiasm of climbing, so the storage room in commercial houses is usually too small and crowded. One option is to choose a room that has both windows and drafts. Consider using partial openings to maximize natural lighting and drafts. Don't ignore the main sources of wind and sun rays in your field. Your design is based on considering the hottest weather, supplemented by the coldest weather. Artificial light sources can be placed anywhere, and fans and air conditioners can replace or supplement natural ventilation.

The living room is a good choice, it is often large enough and there are not many fixed furniture. It is easy to clean up. Magnesium powder is usually a problem. You can use magnesium powder ball to reduce this effect, or you can always have a vacuum cleaner. Think about it. You can sit on the couch and watch your TV to guide your girlfriend climbing. At the same time, you can casually say to the outsider who occasionally came to say: “The Wall of Culture, done by the carpenter in Anhui.”

The basement is often a good choice. Especially summer or winter temperature stability. But the common shortcomings are lack of height, lack of natural light, and lack of ventilation; lofts are okay, but noise can be transmitted downstairs, and in addition they are usually hot and boring.

If you still cannot meet the requirements of space and family, then you have to build a small scale. For example, a Campusboard will also effectively improve your strength and strength of your upper limbs. The most unlucky one must also have a fingerboard hanging on the door.

Do you prevent other activities?

You need to find a place where you can build a rock wall without disturbing other activities in the surrounding area under existing conditions. You need to set aside a space to prevent your buddy from falling off the rock wall from colliding with the refrigerator.

At the same time, although you can think of ways to calm down the anger of your family and neighbors during the construction period, when your feet are built on the wall or on the floor, a voice will be heard. The sound of Nirvana's tears will increase your enthusiasm and theirs. dissatisfied. In particular, do not spill the white powder on the table your mother has just cleaned. In the end, you'd better hide your quaint entertainment from behind your neighbor's eyes.

Does it endanger the existing housing structure?

Except for rock walls with independent supporting structures, most of the indoor climbing walls are attached to the existing house structures. The stability of the rock walls involves the stability of the structure of the houses. Nowadays, there are several types of housing structures: wooden structures, brick and wood structures, brick-concrete structures, precast concrete structures, concrete frame structures, and steel structures. The most common ones are brick-concrete structures and precast concrete slabs, but no matter what kind of structure, there is a part of it that cannot be a structure that supports rock walls, such as various lightweight partition walls and suspended ceilings . In general, the main load-bearing parts of any structure (beams, columns, slabs, shear walls) can fully withstand your rock walls and your weight, and solid brick walls and concrete slabs thicker than 24 cm are no problem. You can't confirm which parts are available. Please consult related professionals. At the same time, you should also make it clear that the more holes you drill in the structure of a building, the more severe the structural damage will be, and it may endanger the safety of the entire building. So, consult a relevant professional before starting work.

At the same time, although there is no problem with the strength of the location you choose, it will not damage the original building structure, but it may still damage the other functions of the building. In the north, most of the residential buildings have thermal insulation outside the walls, but there are still some designs on the interior side. If you happen to fix your rock wall here, you have to destroy some of them. The insulation layer will be difficult if you want to recover later. There will be waterproof layers and flue pipes in the walls of the top floor and kitchen toilets. Some of the walls will also contain wires or something. You must avoid these places. If you say that the insulation is damaged, you cannot find any inconvenience. Then you will regret it if these facilities are damaged. Therefore, you must make sure you understand the condition of your home wall before starting work.
