Prefabricated Earthquake-Resistant Insulated Housing
Prefabricated earthquake-resistant insulated housing mainly includes three types: Bazhou cement prefabricated panel houses, movable panel houses, and foam module houses, each with its own characteristics.
Bazhou Cement Prefabricated Panel Houses: Made of reinforced concrete, these houses are formed through a one-time pouring process. With a panel wall thickness of up to 15 centimeters, this structure provides excellent resistance to typhoons and earthquakes, effectively withstanding the impact of natural disasters. Additionally, they offer good thermal insulation, reducing heat exchange between indoors and outdoors and lowering energy consumption. The construction period is short, allowing for quick commissioning. With a lifespan of over 50 years, they are versatile and can be used for villas, dormitories, office buildings, temporary housing, shops, and various other purposes.
Movable Panel Houses: Utilizing highly modular prefabricated construction techniques, these box-type panel houses are prefabricated in factories and installed on-site, with the fastest setup time of just 6 to 8 minutes per unit, making construction extremely rapid. They possess characteristics such as earthquake resistance, thermal insulation, sun protection, moisture resistance, and durability. The main materials include light steel, sandwich panels, and color-coated steel sheets, among which the sandwich panels are composed of core materials like rock wool with good thermal insulation and fire resistance. The wall insulation layer uses Class A thermal insulation and fire-resistant rock wool materials, while the floor employs first-class waterproof and fire-resistant magnesium oxide boards, further enhancing their thermal insulation and safety performance. Moreover, they are fully functional, equipped with anti-theft plastic-steel windows, well-ventilated and bright, with built-in sockets and lighting fixtures of various models. After connecting to external power, facilities such as folding beds, tables, and stoves can be provided to meet the daily needs of the public.
Foam Module Houses: These houses feature a unique construction method where walls are not built brick by brick. Instead, foam panels are aligned with upper and lower grooves and interlocked like building blocks, then poured with concrete and reinforced with steel frames, resulting in a structure that is soft on the outside and firm on the inside. Construction does not heavily rely on skilled workers; large foam panels are laid out and fixed to steel structures before being capped, reducing construction difficulty and costs. The entire house provides continuous thermal insulation, keeping hot air out in summer and preventing heat loss in winter, while also blocking ground moisture from seeping in, ensuring high living comfort. Additionally, they are resistant to earthquakes and typhoons, can be built quickly, and are cost-effective, having gained popularity in many European and American countries.
