    The load-bearing walls of balconies and rooms in high-rise buildings generally do not use clay solid brick masonry, and if it is indeed a brick load-bearing wall with a thickness of 240 or more, there is no problem with the load-bearing wall. The frame or shear force designed by the regular design department must also be allowed by calculation, so you can rest assured. But I always suspect that the wall you're talking about isn't load-bearing.

    If you are talking about balcony railings, they are mostly made of reinforced concrete, and very few are built with solid clay bricks. If it is indeed a 60-thick brick fence, it is necessary to pre-embed Rachel reinforcement in the outer wall, lay reinforcement mesh inside and outside the guardrail, and wipe cement mortar of 1:3 or higher strength grade inside and outside.

    But the railings aren't load-bearing walls at all, I'm thinking about it.
