Internet-Famous Prefabricated Houses
Internet-famous prefabricated houses generally refer to types of houses such as modular buildings and container houses that are prefabricated in factories and quickly assembled on-site, characterized by high efficiency, convenience, and flexibility.
Modular Buildings: These involve breaking down a building into independent modules. Manufacturing processes such as ceiling, floor, and water and electricity pipeline installations are completed in the factory. The modules are then transported to the site for assembly, much like building with building blocks. This construction method significantly shortens the construction period. For example, in a public housing project in Shenzhen, Guangdong, 6,028 concrete modules were assembled to form five residential buildings nearly 100 meters high. The completion and delivery time was reduced from the traditional 2.5 to 3 years to just 1 year, significantly improving construction efficiency.
Container Houses: These are mostly made of steel, aluminum alloy, and fiberglass-reinforced plastic, with complete exterior and interior finishes, allowing for move-in readiness. Prices vary from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of yuan depending on the area. There are diverse purchasing channels, including through e-commerce platforms. Transportation is flexible, using flatbed trucks or heavy-duty lifting equipment, and they can be occupied immediately upon arrival, offering convenience and speed. For example, on Pinduoduo, there are sales of fully furnished luxury villas and sunrooms with oversized floor-to-ceiling windows as prefabricated houses.
Other Types: Internet-famous prefabricated houses also include cement prefabricated houses, such as those around 200 square meters in rural Henan, which adopt a fully reinforced concrete structure, costing 300 yuan per square meter, and can be built in just 4 hours, demonstrating extremely high construction speed. Additionally, there are small prefabricated houses such as prefabricated kitchens and toilets, which are fully equipped and ready for immediate use, meeting diverse needs.
Market Situation: There are numerous brands of factory-prefabricated houses, such as Wanlong, Zhexia, and Zhonghong, with materials including concrete, sandwich panels, and steel structures. Styles include factory buildings and assembled types, with prices varying based on materials and specifications. For example, the price of internet-famous container民宿 (container homestays) prefabricated houses in Tai'an, Shandong, is 1,000.00 yuan per square meter; the price of a 3*6-meter container housing unit for living in Weifang, Shandong, is 4,950.00 yuan per set, providing consumers with diverse choices.
