Specific conditions of the main influencing factors in the benchmark regions and Gansu region.

Number of floorsLoad bearing wallInternal support

Sichuan provinceThe houses had one or two floorsThe wall thickness was 30–50 cm, and the wall integrity was ordinarySome houses had supporting structures such as wooden frames and wooden columns, and the internal supporting condition was ordinary

Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous RegionThe houses mainly had one floorThe wall thickness was 30–50 cm, and the wall integrity was relatively poorFewer houses had internal supporting structures, and the internal supporting condition was poor

Yunnan provinceMost houses had two floors, and a few houses had one floorThe wall thickness was 60–120 cm and was 80 cm in most cases, with good wall integrityMost houses had wooden posts, wooden beams, and mortise and tenon connection between beams and columns, with better internal supporting condition

Gansu provinceThe houses mainly had one floorThe wall thickness was 30–50 cm, and the wall integrity was ordinarySome houses had supporting structures such as wooden frames and wooden columns, and the internal supporting condition was good
