Guangxi Baise Prefabricated Assembled Houses
Prefabricated assembled houses in Guangxi Baise mainly include three types: assembled container houses, residential steel-structure buildings, and steel-structure panel houses.
Assembled Container Houses: Their design inspiration comes from container shipping operations, being transformed from steel containers. These houses are relatively low in price and simple to construct. One only needs to select suitable containers first, then carry out exterior design and interior decoration and renovation. They have good mobility, with a bottom structure that facilitates loading and unloading by cranes, making them highly suitable for temporary accommodation, outdoor events, and other occasions. Additionally, they are highly customizable, with interior spaces that can be flexibly laid out according to the user's needs to meet diverse usage scenarios.
Residential Steel-Structure Buildings: Their load-bearing skeletons are connected by hot-rolled or welded steel sections, effectively transferring the building's vertical loads and horizontal forces to the foundation through the beam-column system. Steel has high tensile and compressive strength, and the small cross-sections of the components allow for larger usable spaces. At the same time, steel has good ductility, which is beneficial for resisting dynamic loads such as earthquake forces. In terms of construction methods, the main structure is usually prefabricated in the factory and quickly installed on-site, reducing the time of outdoor wet operations, minimizing the impact of rainy-season construction, and better adapting to uneven mountainous terrain. Their system composition includes the main structure system, floor system, enclosure system, equipment and pipeline system, etc., with a construction process characterized by the parallelism of 'factory prefabrication' and 'on-site assembly'.
Steel-Structure Panel Houses: These are formed with steel as the main load-bearing skeleton, combined with a panel enclosure structure. Steel has high strength, good plasticity, and toughness, and can be processed into lightweight components for transportation, adapting to the mountainous and hilly terrain conditions in Baise. Panels such as colored galvanized steel sheets and sandwich panels have functions of enclosure, space division, corrosion resistance, and heat insulation. During construction, foundation treatment is required first, followed by the installation of the main and secondary steel structural components, and finally the installation of the panels with proper sealing of the joints. They have a fast construction speed, and the structural main body and enclosure panels can be separated, facilitating future relocation or renovation. They are commonly found in temporary or semi-professional settings where construction time is a requirement.
