Container House Installation Types

The installation types of container houses mainly include standard container house installation, quick-assembly container installation, packing-box container installation, and foldable container house installation.

1. Standard Container House Installation:

   • Typically based on the modification of standard shipping containers, with specifications such as 3m×6m or 3m×9m, using a light steel frame with rock wool sandwich panels for enclosure.
   • The installation process includes foundation verification, component delivery, lifting and positioning, structural connection, plumbing and electrical installation, and decoration.
   • The key points of construction are the control of verticality for multi-container stacking, seismic and anti-loosening treatment of node connections, and waterproof sealing works.
   • For example, the standard container house from CIMC Modular Building Investment Co., Ltd. takes 3 hours for a single installation, with limited layout adjustments.

2. Quick-Assembly Container Installation:

   • Adopts a modular design, supporting on-demand assembly and combination to quickly expand into different functional spaces.
   • The installation process is simplified, requiring no complex welding procedures on site, and can be completed simply through bolt connections.
   • For example, the quick-assembly container from Suzhou Zhongnan Steel Structure Co., Ltd. takes only 2-4 hours for a single installation and supports the construction of 10 standard dormitories within one day.

3. Packing-Box Container Installation:

   • The interior decoration and facilities are pre-installed before leaving the factory, and it can be put into use immediately after on-site lifting, suitable for long-term on-site projects.
   • It has high installation efficiency and strong structural stability. For example, the packing-box container from Suzhou Zhongnan has a wind resistance rating of 12 and an earthquake resistance rating of 8.

4. Foldable Container House Installation:

   • The installation process is extremely simple and fast, usually requiring only two people to operate, and a single foldable container house can be installed within three minutes.
   • The installation steps include checking the stability of the wire ropes, lifting the main frame, unfolding and placing the support rods, pushing open the walls, and tightening the screws.
   • It is suitable for temporary housing in fields such as construction, railways, and highways, and can also be used as fixed buildings, such as integrated cafes and integrated apartments.
