Reconstruction of Prefabricated Panel Houses in Guilin

Admin September 18, 2026

The reconstruction of prefabricated panel houses in Guilin mainly includes the renovation of residential buildings and school projects, along with relevant considerations for the renovation of old houses.

Residential Building Renovation Case

There are three prefabricated panel residential buildings at No. 38, South Lane, Xishan Road. Two of them were built in the early 1980s, and the other was built around 1992. These buildings have been identified as Class C dangerous buildings due to issues such as wall cracks, leakage, and peeling wall surfaces. The renovation construction started at the end of 2024, with reinforcement covering exterior walls as well as interior walls, balconies, stairwells, roofs, and eaves that have been identified as dangerous points through testing. For weak walls, high-toughness concrete is used for reinforcement, and some walls are reinforced with steel bars according to design requirements. The entire reinforcement construction is planned to be completed by the end of March 2025, and the reinforced buildings must meet Class B safety standards to pass the acceptance inspection. This renovation case reflects the importance attached to the safety of old prefabricated panel buildings. Through scientific and reasonable reinforcement measures, the seismic and load-bearing capacities of the buildings are enhanced, ensuring the safety of residents' lives and property.

School Prefabricated Panel Building Renovation Project

The renovation and corridor reinforcement project for the prefabricated panel buildings at Guilin Petroleum Primary School, with the project number GLZC2025 - C2 - 990306 - OBGC, adopts a competitive negotiation procurement method with a total budget of 1,314,636.42 yuan. Suppliers participating in this project must have a Grade III or above general contracting qualification for construction engineering and a valid safety production license. The proposed project manager must have a Grade II or above registered construction engineer qualification in the field of construction engineering and hold a safety production assessment certificate (Class B). The contract performance period is 35 days, and the deadline for submitting response documents is 10:00 a.m. (Beijing Time) on July 25, 2025. This project aims to improve the school's teaching environment, ensure the safety of prefabricated panel buildings, and provide students with a safer and more comfortable learning place.

Considerations for Renovating Old Houses

For the renovation of old houses involving prefabricated panel buildings, it is necessary to inspect the building structure before demolition, especially for brick-concrete structures, prefabricated panel structures, or residential buildings with a long age. Do not rely solely on floor plans to determine which walls can be demolished. Professional personnel should conduct on-site inspections to clarify the scope of demolition and carry out construction briefings. For modifications involving the main structure, relevant procedures should be followed according to property management requirements and regulations to ensure that the renovation process is legal and compliant and to avoid causing irreversible damage to the building structure.
