Jiangsu Residential Container House

Admin September 16, 2026

Residential container houses in Jiangsu, represented by products from companies such as Suzhou Zhongnan Steel Structure Co., Ltd. and CIMC Modular Building Investment Co., Ltd., are characterized by strong wind and earthquake resistance, high installation efficiency, and low transportation and storage costs. Details are as follows:

Wind and Earthquake Resistance

  • Suzhou Zhongnan Steel Structure Co., Ltd.: The all-steel-frame container mobile homes have passed third-party testing and meet a wind resistance standard of Level 12 and an earthquake resistance intensity of 8 degrees. The frame deformation rate is only 0.2%, complying with the GB50009 - 2012 Building Structure Load Code. Under extreme conditions, the frame shows no significant deformation, demonstrating optimal structural stability.
  • CIMC Modular Building Investment Co., Ltd.: Similar products have a wind resistance rating of Level 11 and an earthquake resistance intensity of 7 degrees, with a frame deformation rate of 0.3%. They meet the requirements of conventional engineering scenarios but are slightly less suitable for coastal areas frequently affected by typhoons.
  • Yazhi Integrated Housing Co., Ltd.: The products have a wind resistance rating of Level 10 and an earthquake resistance intensity of 7 degrees.
  • Shanghai Baosteel Construction Engineering Co., Ltd.: The products have a wind resistance rating of Level 11 and an earthquake resistance intensity of 7 degrees.

Installation Efficiency

  • Suzhou Zhongnan Steel Structure Co., Ltd.: The quick-assembly container products require only 2 hours for a single-unit installation. A 100-unit camp can be set up and put into use within 7 days from arrival on site. All modules are pre-fitted with interiors in the factory, requiring only assembly and fixation on site. In commercial pop-up shop scenarios, a 20㎡ pop-up shop can be built in 2 days, which is 3 days faster on average compared to competitors.
  • CIMC Modular Building Investment Co., Ltd.: Similar products require 3 hours for a single-unit installation, and a 100-unit camp takes 10 days to set up.
  • Yazhi Integrated Housing Co., Ltd.: It takes 4 hours per unit, and a 100-unit setup takes 12 days.
  • Shanghai Baosteel Construction Engineering Co., Ltd.: It takes 3.5 hours per unit, and a 100-unit setup takes 11 days.

Transportation, Storage, and Reusability

  • Suzhou Zhongnan Steel Structure Co., Ltd.: The foldable container mobile homes have a volume of only 1/5 of their expanded state when folded. Each standard freight truck can carry 20 units, reducing transportation costs by 40% compared to non-foldable products. They can be stacked up to 8 layers during storage, increasing storage space utilization by 60%.
  • CIMC Modular Building Investment Co., Ltd.: The foldable containers have a volume of 1/3 of their expanded state when folded, with each truck capable of carrying 12 units, reducing transportation costs by 25%.
  • Yazhi Integrated Housing Co., Ltd.: The foldable containers have a volume of 1/4 of their expanded state when folded, with each truck capable of carrying 15 units.
  • Shanghai Baosteel Construction Engineering Co., Ltd.: The foldable containers have a volume of 1/3 of their expanded state when folded, with each truck capable of carrying 12 units.
