Demolition of Prefabricated Slab Houses in Jingdezhen

Whether prefabricated slab houses in Jingdezhen should be demolished depends on professional appraisal results. Only D-grade dilapidated houses may be included in the demolition scope, while other houses are mainly renovated and reinforced. The policy clearly avoids a one-size-fits-all approach.

1. Strictly Limited Demolition Scope, Only for D-Grade Dilapidated Houses

According to the State Council's '15th Five-Year Plan for Urban Renewal' and authoritative interpretations, the governance of prefabricated slab houses follows the principle of 'classified disposal, dilapidated houses first'. Only prefabricated slab houses appraised as D-grade dilapidated houses (where the load-bearing structure cannot meet safe usage requirements and there is a risk of collapse) by professional institutions can be demolished and renovated, rather than all prefabricated slab buildings. C-grade dilapidated houses (where local load-bearing structures do not meet safe usage requirements) are usually handled through reinforcement and repair, while A and B-grade houses are mainly renovated for livability, such as pipeline updates, waterproofing and insulation, and seismic upgrades.

2. Diverse Governance and Renovation Paths, Demolition as the Last Resort

The policy clearly states to 'steadily advance the governance and renovation of prefabricated slab houses'. Renovation methods include structural reinforcement, fire protection renovation, and seismic upgrades. Demolition is only used as a last resort for houses with extremely high safety risks, low repair value, or included in expropriation and reconstruction projects. Residents can also choose self-initiated updates or original demolition and reconstruction, but these must comply with local planning requirements. For example, Fujian Province proposes to 'comprehensively and dynamically grasp the bottom line of housing safety hazards' and avoid resource waste through refined governance.

3. Strengthened Dynamic Management Mechanism, with Professional Appraisal as the Core Basis

The Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development requires shortening the inspection cycle for prefabricated slab multi-household residences built over 25 years to once every five years, achieving 'initial assessment followed by classification' through establishing files and dynamically updating housing safety information. If Jingdezhen is involved in the governance of prefabricated slab houses, it needs to rely on professional appraisal reports as the core basis, rather than the age or material of the houses. Currently, publicly available information shows that Jingdezhen's urban renewal actions mainly target illegal constructions (such as privately built carports and houses built with foam bricks) for demolition, and there is no mention of large-scale demolition projects for prefabricated slab houses.

4. Residents Need to Pay Attention to Local Housing and Urban-Rural Development Department Plans

If there is a demand for the governance of prefabricated slab houses in Jingdezhen, residents should closely follow the appraisal and renovation plans released by the housing and urban-rural development department and actively participate in the housing safety appraisal process. The policy emphasizes 'classified governance' and avoids a one-size-fits-all approach. Residents can safeguard their rights and interests through legal means while cooperating with the government to advance urban renewal work.
