Yichang Prefabricated Assembly-Type Housing

Admin September 18, 2026

Prefabricated assembly-type housing in Yichang is widely used in both rural and urban construction, featuring safety, efficiency, and environmental friendliness, and is supported by policies.

Application in Rural Areas

In rural areas, prefabricated rural houses are constructed by producing main structural components in factories and assembling them on-site. For example, the new house of Meng Fanmei, a villager in Wujiamen Village, Anfusi Town, Zhijiang City, was completed in just one month for the main structure, with installation errors controlled to the millimeter level, achieving an earthquake resistance rating of 8 and reducing construction waste generation. Guangsheng Construction Technology has developed over 200 technical solutions for the prefabricated rural housing market, which can be adjusted according to customer needs to meet the diverse demands of rural housing. Meanwhile, higher requirements have been placed on the training of skilled personnel in the field of rural construction. Guangsheng Group has established a vocational skills training school to provide relevant training, offering talent support for the construction of prefabricated rural houses.

Application in Urban Construction

In urban construction, prefabricated construction techniques are also being applied. For instance, the first residential project in the Yichang High-Speed Rail New Town area—Jinya Qichen Shangyuan Block 3—adopts a prefabricated modular construction mode, breaking down the building's main structure into standardized three-dimensional space modules. These modules are fully processed in factories and then transported to the site for assembly. This approach can shorten the construction period by nearly 50%, reduce on-site construction waste emissions by 75%, lower construction dust and noise pollution, and achieve green and low-carbon construction, meeting the requirements of sustainable urban development.

Policy Support

In terms of policies, the Yichang Municipal Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau has organized the drafting of the "Revised Draft of the Calculation Rules for the Assembly Rate of Prefabricated Buildings in Yichang" to standardize the calculation of the assembly rate of prefabricated buildings. It has also issued a notice on adjusting the implementation requirements for prefabricated buildings. Starting from October 1, 2023, for specific real estate development projects that acquire land use rights within the planned areas of Yichang's central city and county-level city urban areas, the proportion of above-ground prefabricated building area shall not be less than 40% of the total above-ground building area. From June 1, 2024, relevant civil and industrial buildings shall also adhere to this proportion. Projects that genuinely require adjustments to the implementation proportion shall follow a "case-by-case" review system, providing strong policy support for the development of prefabricated assembly-type housing.
