Expandable folding house
Question: What materials are used in container housing? What is its lifespan? Answer: The main structure uses high-strength steel containers with anti-corrosion treatment, offering a lifespan of 20–30 years with regular maintenance.
Question: How can a container be converted into a residential house? Does it require additional insulation or soundproofing? Answer: Conversion requires adding insulation (e.g., rock wool), soundproofing panels, and interior finishes. We offer turnkey renovation services for comfort and safety.
Question: Can container housing withstand typhoons or earthquakes? What is its wind resistance rating? Answer: Reinforced containers can withstand Category 12 typhoons and Magnitude 8 earthquakes, with a wind resistance rating of 35m/s, suitable for disaster-prone regions.
Question: Can multiple containers be combined to create a larger space? How is it designed? Answer: Containers can be stacked horizontally or vertically using steel frames to create multi-room residences, offices, or public spaces.
Question: Does container housing require regular maintenance? How to prevent rust? Answer: Annual inspection of anti-corrosion coatings is recommended, with touch-up painting for localized rust. Avoid prolonged exposure to humidity to extend lifespan.
Question: How is the seismic performance of light steel housing? Is it suitable for earthquake-prone areas? Answer: Light steel housing offers Magnitude 8 seismic resistance with a flexible frame structure that dissipates energy, making it ideal for earthquake-prone regions.
Question: How long does it take to build a light steel house? What are its advantages over traditional construction? Answer: Standard models take 30–45 days, 50% faster than traditional construction, with no wet work on-site to reduce pollution.
Question: Is light steel housing eco-friendly? Is the steel recyclable? Answer: 90% of materials are recyclable, with zero construction waste, meeting green building standards.
Question: How is the sound insulation and thermal insulation of light steel housing? Does it require additional measures? Answer: Standard models include soundproofing wool and insulation panels, achieving 45dB noise reduction and superior thermal performance. Upgrades are available for higher standards.
Question: Can light steel housing obtain a property certificate? What procedures are required? Answer: Compliance with local building codes and submission of design plans and inspection reports are required. Consult local housing authorities for specific procedures.
Space Capsule Housing
Question: What does the price of a space capsule house include? Are there additional costs for transportation or installation? Answer: The price typically includes the main structure, basic interior finishes (e.g., flooring, walls), and some built-in equipment (e.g., lighting, sockets). Transportation and installation costs vary by region and project complexity and are quoted separately.
Question: Does a space capsule house require a building permit? Can it be used as a temporary residence? Answer: Building permit requirements depend on local regulations. Some regions allow use as temporary residences or vacation homes, but it’s essential to consult local planning authorities.
Question: What is the indoor area of a space capsule house? Is customization of size or layout possible? Answer: Standard models offer 8–15㎡ of indoor space. Customization of size and layout (e.g., adding bedrooms or kitchen modules) is possible but may incur additional costs.
Question: How are water and electricity connected to a space capsule house? Does it require additional construction? Answer: Water and electricity systems require embedded piping and connection to external municipal networks, typically involving basic construction (e.g., trenching, wiring). Our team provides professional installation support.
Question: How long does it take from ordering to delivery of a space capsule house? Is there any in-stock inventory? Answer: Delivery for standard models takes 4–6 weeks; custom models require 8–12 weeks. Some popular models may be in stock—contact customer service for details.
