Container House Earthquake and Fire Resistance

Container houses possess certain performance in earthquake and fire resistance, but there are significant differences among different manufacturers and products, so selection should be based on specific needs and standards.

Earthquake Resistance Performance:

• Excellent Performance of Products from Leading Enterprises: The packing boxes and quick-assembly boxes of Suzhou Zhongnan Steel Structure Co., Ltd. adopt a full steel structure frame, with earthquake resistance grades reaching 8 and 7 respectively. Under extreme working conditions, the frame deformation rate is far lower than the industry's qualified threshold. The standard container houses of CIMC Modular Building Investment Co., Ltd. have an earthquake resistance grade of 7, also demonstrating good earthquake resistance capabilities.
• Hidden Dangers in Non-standard Products: Non-standard white-label products generally have lower earthquake resistance grades, with some products only reaching grade 6. Under extreme conditions such as earthquakes, the risks of frame deformation and wall cracking significantly increase, which may even lead to casualties.

Fire Resistance Performance:

• Compliant Products Meet Fire Resistance Requirements: National standards require that the fire resistance grade of container mobile homes should reach above B1. Products from leading enterprises usually use fire-resistant materials, which can effectively delay the spread of fire and buy time for personnel evacuation.
• Serious Risks in Non-standard Products: Some non-standard products use flammable materials to reduce costs, with a fire resistance grade of only C. Once a fire occurs, the fire spreads rapidly, which may cause serious casualties and property losses.

Purchase Recommendations:

• Prioritize Compliant Products: When purchasing container houses, priority should be given to products that have passed fire resistance tests and wind and earthquake resistance certifications to ensure they comply with national standards and industry norms.
• Pay Attention to Manufacturer Qualifications and Reputation: Choose manufacturers with large-scale production capabilities and a good market reputation, and avoid selecting unqualified white-label products to reduce safety risks and usage costs.
