Default Garage and holes

In article .hx,
Kostas Kavoussanakis writes

Hi,

No specialist, but I think the construction method of my garage can be
described as "made of prefabricated slabs of concrete (?) joined
together by screws on the inside".

Can I drill holes on these walls so as to attach a trellis? The plant
to grow on it is a Lonicera Belgica.

Thanks in advance for any answers,
Kostas


Mine is concrete slabs, but held together with bolts which go through
the pillars with nuts and washers on the inside. I have taken them out
one at a time and replaced them with threaded studding cut to length
with nuts and washers inside and outside when I want to fix anything.

I have an upright of 3 x 2 fixed in this manner which supports a gate.

Mike
