Container Houses Support Tibet

Container houses have played a crucial role in rapidly resettling earthquake victims in Tibet and providing them with a safe and comfortable living environment. Their specific functions are as follows:

Rapid Response and Emergency Allocation

After the earthquake, China Communications Construction Company's subsidiary, China Communications Construction First Highway Engineering Group, immediately established an emergency rescue headquarters, overcoming harsh conditions such as high altitudes and cold, oxygen-deprived environments. They urgently gathered 300 foldable container houses and transported them overnight to Dingri and Lazi counties. In total, China Communications Construction Company provided 950 container houses, distributing them to Dingri and Lazi counties to meet the resettlement needs of the affected population.

Safe and Comfortable Living Guarantee

Compared to tents, container houses are better suited to withstand strong winds and low temperatures, offering a safe and comfortable living environment for victims. Each container house can accommodate 4 bunk beds, allowing 8 people to live simultaneously. The container-style panel houses installed by PowerChina Sanju Tibet Company are 18 square meters each, housing 4 to 5 people. These panel houses are equipped with folding beds, tables, stoves, and guaranteed electricity, laying the foundation for the victims to spend the winter safely.

Efficient Construction and Installation

Several companies have demonstrated efficient construction capabilities. Ten professional builders from Wujiang Saima Steel Frame Color Plate Manufacturing Co., Ltd. can complete the construction of more than 30 container houses in 2 days under favorable conditions. The emergency rescue team from PowerChina Sanju Tibet Company spent nearly 21 hours successfully completing the installation of 30 sets of container-style panel houses. On the same day, the first batch of 20 households, totaling 107 victims, moved from temporary tents into the panel houses.

Multi-Party Collaboration and Support

In addition to China Communications Construction Company and PowerChina Sanju, other enterprises have also actively participated in the support efforts. China Railway 24th Bureau Group purchased and processed 26 containers, rushing to Dingri County in Xigaze for installation. Wujiang Saima Steel Frame Color Plate Manufacturing Co., Ltd. urgently allocated 4 truckloads of materials from its ongoing projects in Tibet to Dingri County. Suzhou Pingchuang Integrated Housing Co., Ltd. fully organized its resources from its Sichuan factory to prioritize support for the disaster area.
