Why are container houses suitable for post-disaster reconstruction work
First, the ready-made modularization of container houses provides a very simple, fast and mass-productable solid basic layout unit for temporary construction.
Second, container houses can be reused many times. When the urban renovation is completed and the residents under temporary construction return to their hometowns, the containers can still be put back into the factory warehouses, waiting for the next “mission”. That is to say, there is no fundamental waste of resources, and there is no need to consider the key cost of recycling and destroying the waste materials caused by the temporary construction being abandoned.
Iii. The dimensions and specifications of the container bodies in container buildings should be uniform. As it is produced in accordance with the smooth industrial transportation standards, there are hoisting parts at all four corners. Therefore, all the construction hoisting technical equipment provided by society can be used in the construction process of the temporary construction after this disaster, without the need to formulate corresponding regulations and technical equipment support again, thus saving the key research and development process of construction.
Fourth, compared with tents or other temporary structures made of organic materials, container buildings are easier to clean and disinfect to maintain cleanliness and hygiene. This also reduces the possibility of possible outbreaks of plagues or infectious diseases in the post-disaster temporary deployment area to a lower level.
Five, container buildings have relatively strong firmness. All containers are processed from steel materials and have relatively good seismic resistance and anti-deformation capabilities. Therefore, the possibility of secondary injury after a disaster can be prevented.
