Construction Process of Container House

The process of constructing a container house is mainly divided into two stages: factory prefabrication and on-site assembly, involving multiple links such as design, production, transportation, and installation.

Factory Prefabrication Stage:

• Design and Disassembly: Based on requirements, the entire building is disassembled into several independent modules, each containing specific functional areas (such as bedrooms, living rooms, bathrooms, etc.), and structural design and detailed drawings are completed. Modular design needs to consider transportation constraints (such as container size) and on-site assembly methods.
• Steel Structure Processing: Hot-dip galvanized cold-formed steel or welded frames are used to form the main structure through cutting, welding, and grinding processes. Welded boxes are formed as a whole and have strong resistance to deformation; bolt-connected boxes are assembled from standard plates, and the tightness of the joints needs to be ensured.
• Installation of Enclosure Systems: Wall and roof panels are usually made of rock wool, glass wool, or polyurethane sandwich panels, which have functions of thermal insulation, fire prevention, and sound insulation. Systems such as doors, windows, electrical, and water supply and drainage are pre-embedded in the factory to reduce on-site wet work.
• Interior Decoration: Basic decoration such as flooring, lighting, switches, and sockets is completed. Some projects even integrate soft furnishings (such as cabinets and wardrobes) to achieve a "ready-to-move-in" standard.

On-site Assembly Stage:

• Foundation Treatment: Depending on the geological conditions, independent foundations or pile foundations are selected to ensure that the ground is level and the load is evenly distributed to avoid settlement of the container.
• Module Transportation and Hoisting: The prefabricated modules are transported to the site by sea or land, and the modules are positioned and assembled using cranes. When assembling, attention should be paid to the force transmission path to ensure that the roof load is transmitted through the side wall columns to the bottom beams and then evenly distributed to the ground.
• Connection and Debugging: Complete the structural connection between modules, the connection of water and electricity pipelines, and perform sealing treatment (such as around doors and windows and at the joints of containers). Install ventilation equipment such as exhaust fans and high windows to prevent internal condensation.
• Acceptance and Maintenance: Check the anti-corrosion treatment of welds, corners, and other parts, and regularly replace sealants to ensure rust and water resistance.
