Decoration of Cement Prefabricated Houses

The decoration of cement prefabricated houses should be tailored based on the characteristics of the house, its service life, and the requirements of the usage scenario, with the core principle being to balance structural safety and aesthetics.

I. Decoration Design for New Cement Prefabricated Houses

When decorating newly constructed cement prefabricated houses, the structural advantages can be fully utilized, and modern design elements can be adopted to enhance the texture. For example, fair-faced concrete artistic coating can retain the original texture of the cement, paired with black metal lines or wooden decorations to create an industrial or minimalist style; large floor-to-ceiling windows can enhance indoor lighting while softening the cold and hard feel of the cement; floating stairs are fixed with metal brackets or transparent glass, saving space and adding a sense of lightness. Additionally, areas can be divided according to functional requirements, such as an open-plan kitchen and living room design, or softening the harsh feel of the cement through soft furnishings (such as carpets and green plants).

II. Key Points for Decorating Old Cement Prefabricated Houses

For cement prefabricated panel houses that have been in use for many years, structural safety issues must be addressed first. If planning to relay floor tiles, the prefabricated panels must be reinforced:

1. Reinforced concrete with small beams: Pour reinforced concrete small beams at the gaps between the prefabricated panels to enhance the overall integrity of the floor slab and avoid uneven stress distribution that could cause the floor tiles to loosen or crack.
2. Steel beam support: For areas with large spans, additional steel beams can be installed to share the load and ensure even stress distribution on the floor slab.
3. Base layer treatment: After reinforcement, the base layer should be leveled with cement mortar and a moisture-proof layer (such as plastic film or waterproof coating) should be laid to prevent moisture from eroding the floor tiles.

III. Scenario-Based Customized Design

The decoration of cement prefabricated houses should match the usage scenario:

• Office buildings: Modular partitions and concealed wiring designs can be adopted, paired with intelligent lighting systems to improve space utilization and a sense of technology.
• Staff dormitories: Emphasis should be placed on privacy and storage functions, such as custom-made tatami bed-cabinet combinations and built-in wardrobes, and durable and non-slip flooring materials should be selected.
• Rural self-built houses: Materials can be selected based on local climate conditions (such as moisture-proofing in the south and insulation in the north), for example, adding insulation panels to the exterior walls and using natural wood furniture to neutralize the cold feel of the cement indoors.

Key reminder: Before decoration, a professional institution should be commissioned to test the load-bearing capacity of the prefabricated panels to avoid structural damage caused by renovation; during construction, the reinforcement process should be strictly supervised to ensure that the material quality meets the standards.
