[@PichDextro]

To be honest, tornados and hurricanes are one of the biggest reasons, why american houses are mainly wood and paper. If that shit flies around, it won't destroy absolutely everything in it's path. You rather want some wood flying into someone elses house, than tons of bricks, let's be real here. Germany doesn't get hurricanes and most parts of Germany are colder, so the thicker walls help with keeping the heat in the house. The wooden houses in Arizona however help with better air flow and therefore colder interior.

[@AlexTrusk91]

@@PichDextro Sounds like a good point. But i'm team brick walls when it comes to cool interiors. The more castle the more heat is prevented from leaking right through the walls. At least in my experience in summer, without ac btw. But yeah, Germany is cooler, most of the year. Of course depending on the exact location in both countries and, well, we got some hot days as well. And I wish for an ac just sometimes. As for the reasoning of not damaging more property or worse. It sounds plausible, but I don't buy it. Light buildings are far more likely to desintegrate and go airborne than heavy ones. We may loose some shingles. And the altruistic reasoning seems more unlikely than the price tag. But you are certainly right, we just don't have your weather here. Even in the north where it's basically all sea weather (between the north and baltic seas), it's not as bad as in the tornado alley. I go for a like on your comment, you really seem enagged :D What about the fire resistance btw?

So the real reason for making walls with paper and wood work is that it prevents from losses during earthquakes, while if the cement wall fall down it would be expensive to repair

Drywall is used in Europe as well, but not as a main structure. Tke skeleton of a house is based on bricks, concrete or other sturdy material, and in some cases drywall is added onto that to make f. e. double ceiling or to get specific wall surface.

Thats not true. Solid walls and even wood is a strong conductor of heat. You want hollow walls with insulation. If you have an outside brick wall you still need a layer of insulation and some drywall on the inside. You also want drywall on the inside because its easy to repair, paint, and mount things on, especially in the context of children and pets, and renovation people will want to make anyway. Imagine a brick wall after 100 years of people drilling holes, water damage, and caked with layers of paint. How easy is it to replace drywall? How easy is it to replace a brick wall?

[@epicow_1973]

@epicow_1973 0 seconds ago theres a huge reason why american walls are built this way. First thing "paper" is a bit wrong, drywall is more a board of cellulose Drywall is not "the entire wall" and is usually supported by metal beams in the interior as a skeleton. Drywall is extremely useful in electrical wiring, (why so many homes in the US have central heating/cooling systems compared to homes in europe) and is also far easier to setup, is cheaper, and can be modified to for example, make the house more resistant to mold, to heat, to becoming more soundproof, or to natural disasters. Drywall also is excellent at insulation, and although counterintuitive, the pocket of air in the middle of drywall is more effective than solid concrete. the pocket of air also provides an effective way at making sure the place is not too hot, nor too cold. Drywall is also incredibly easy to maintain, and can be repaired with haste if neccessary. Drywall is however more prone to mold than other wall types, and isnt as sturdy as the concrete, stone, or brick walls. Overall drywall is one of the most important, and underrated inventions in construction.

Толстые бетонные/кирпичные стены - вероятно, используют везде где достаточно суровый климат. В городе где я живу, у большинства зданий толстые стены, эти дома стоят уже по 60 и более лет. Есть здания и с конца 194х, у которых стены ещё толще (а также, там очень большие коридоры и лестничная клетка). Но из-за использования в них неких шлаковых чёрных кирпичей (т.е из шлака, который остаётся от литья стали), их стены стали осыпаться, дома были признаны аварийными, часть из них уже снесли. Но в то же время есть и "Хрущёвки", эти здания делали максимально дешёвыми и простыми. Их стены достаточно тонкие (наверное, сантиметров 15), в основном из-за того что эти дома собирали из готовых "кубов", которые поднимали краном и склеивали цементом.
