Situation of Old Prefabricated Panel Houses

Some old prefabricated panel houses in Shijiazhuang have potential safety hazards. For example, a standalone four-story brick-and-concrete prefabricated panel building at No. 80 Beihe Street, Xinhua District, was built around 1975. In 2022, this building was rated as a D-grade dilapidated house, and residents were required to move out and vacate it; in 2023, it was re-evaluated as a safety grade C, and residents moved back in. Currently, this house is not included in the 2026 urban dilapidated house renovation plan. If the property owner of the house has the intention to renovate, they can submit a renovation application to the local community and sub-district office. After the proportion of property owners of the entire building who agree reaches the specified requirement and a unified renovation opinion is formed, the housing and construction department in the jurisdiction will report the renovation plan and organize its implementation.

For brick-and-concrete multi-story residential buildings, current national, provincial, and municipal laws and regulations do not require regular safety grade evaluations. For houses that have been evaluated as C-grade dilapidated houses, before the potential safety hazards are eliminated, it is recommended that the house owners continuously monitor changes in the house's safety condition. If there are significant changes in the house's safety condition, immediately organize personnel to evacuate, immediately report to the sub-district office and the housing and construction department in the jurisdiction, take corresponding measures for disposal in a timely manner, and conduct a house safety evaluation as appropriate.

Accident Cases of Prefabricated Panel Houses

A prefabricated panel house collapse accident occurred in Shijiazhuang. In the early morning of August 19, 2026, the third and fourth floors of a four-story prefabricated panel brick-and-concrete old building built in the 1980s in Railway 55 Dormitory, Xinhua District, suddenly collapsed, resulting in 3 deaths. Preliminary investigations suspected that a gas leak triggered an explosion, but the building itself had poor integrity and weak earthquake resistance. It was a brittle failure structure, and local failures were prone to cause a chain collapse. Moreover, this building had just undergone an old building renovation in 2020, with only the exterior walls painted and the facades refreshed, while the floor slabs and other structures remained unchanged. In addition, 28 out of 41 buildings in Zhaidong Community in Shijiazhuang are D-grade dilapidated houses, and more than 68% of the load-bearing structures of the buildings cannot meet the requirements for safe use. In 2020, roof renovations and facade paintings were still carried out, and elderly people still lived in these dilapidated houses after the painting. These cases serve as a warning that people should pay attention to the safety issues of old prefabricated panel houses.
