Prefabricated Concrete Houses in Huaibei

Huaibei City has achieved remarkable practical results in the field of prefabricated concrete houses (prefabricated rural houses), covering technology research and development, corporate participation, and specific project applications.

I. Policy Promotion and Technological Research and Development

The Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau of Huaibei City actively promotes the modernization of prefabricated rural houses and guides China Metallurgical Group Huaihai Company in developing the "Concrete Cube System." This system uses reinforced concrete for all main structures and achieves factory production and on-site assembly through industrialized construction methods. Its core advantages include:

• Environmental Protection and Energy Efficiency: Compared to traditional buildings, it can save 70% energy, 80% water, 20% materials, and 20% land, reduce construction waste by 70%, and is dust-free and pollution-free.
• Superior Performance: The roof adopts a three-layer waterproofing system, and the interior walls are made of solid concrete, providing excellent sound insulation. The main materials are factory-formed in one piece, ensuring better quality than traditional manual operations.
• Flexible Customization: House types can be freely combined, covering areas from 120 to 400 square meters. The sizes of functional areas (such as living rooms and bedrooms) can be adjusted, and decoration supports personalized customization and short-term integrated construction.

II. Typical Project Applications

Taking the prefabricated new residential building in Zhangzhuang, Longbei Village, Baishan Town, Suixi County as an example:

• Building Parameters: The total area is 171.5 square meters, and the total height is 9.5 meters. All prefabricated components of the main structure are produced in factories.
• Construction Efficiency: On-site hoisting takes only about 4 hours to complete a new house, resulting in an extremely short construction period. Moreover, the main structure involves no wet operations, avoiding environmental pollution.
• Economy: The construction cost is about 30% lower than that of traditional structures. It has strong earthquake resistance, and the connections adopt three major methods: embedded sleeves, connection boxes, and bolts, ensuring structural safety.

III. Corporate Participation

Several companies in Huaibei City are engaged in the production of prefabricated concrete components:

• Huaibei Xianghai Prefabrication Co., Ltd.: It was previously involved in the production and sales of prefabricated concrete components, commercial concrete, and the leasing of mechanical equipment. However, it completed the simplified deregistration process on August 18, 2022.
• Anhui Huaibei Lieshan Mingcheng Prefabricated Concrete Component Factory: Established on October 26, 2018, its business scope includes the manufacturing and leasing of prefabricated concrete components and concrete houses. It is currently still in operation.

Through policy guidance, technological research and development, and corporate participation, Huaibei City has formed a complete chain of prefabricated rural houses from design, production to construction, providing a replicable solution for the modernization of rural housing.
