Reinforcement of Residential Container Houses

The reinforcement of residential container houses can be carried out from aspects such as structural frames, connection parts, roofs, and overall wind and earthquake resistance.

Structural Frame Reinforcement

The structural frame is the core supporting part of a container house, and its stability directly affects the overall safety of the house. The container mobile houses of Suzhou Zhongnan Steel Structure Co., Ltd. adopt a full-steel structural frame. Through automatic welding processes, the weld strength meets the GB/T 19001 - 2016 standard. Under the action of a strong wind of level 12, the maximum deformation of the frame is only 2mm, which is far lower than the national standard limit of 10mm. The container body of Nantong Aoligei Steel Structure Engineering Co., Ltd. is a fully welded structure, not a simple assembly. It is sturdy and durable and can be used continuously for 30 years. The materials meet national professional standards, and the galvanized layers of the products are all treated with epoxy phosphate paint, enhancing the strength and durability of the frame.

Connection Part Reinforcement

The firmness of the connection parts is crucial for the stability of container houses. Dongguan Yashun Light Steel Structure Co., Ltd. has obtained a patent for a container house reinforcement structure, which includes a container body, supporting column feet, embedded parts, and a raft foundation. The raft foundation is a concrete structure. The supporting column feet are arranged at intervals at the lower end of the container body. The embedded parts are set corresponding to the supporting column feet within the raft foundation. The supporting column feet are welded and fixed on the welding surface of the embedded parts, improving the connection firmness and stability between the container body and the ground, reducing the impact of external winds on the container house, and providing excellent earthquake resistance.

Roof and Overall Wind and Earthquake Resistance Reinforcement

For the roof, refer to the practices of the Tianjin Wuqing Meichang construction site for wind reinforcement. In terms of overall wind and earthquake resistance design, the construction plan for container mobile houses should plan in advance the flatness of the foundation, the embedding of drainage pipes, and the selection of appropriate lifting points. For long-term outdoor use scenarios, steel frames can be used to reinforce the corners, concrete piers can be made at the bottom, and anti-corrosion wood exterior wall treatment can be carried out to improve durability. The container body walls of the Dalangbo temporary container houses are fixed around the perimeter with no ribs in the middle, resulting in insufficient wind resistance of the walls. Ribs can be added to enhance wind resistance.
