Prefabricated houses: excellent fireproof performance, building a safe home

In the field of construction, safety is always the top priority, and fireproof performance is the key indicator to measure the safety of houses. Prefabricated houses, as a modern form of construction, are bringing more reliable safety guarantees to people's lives with their excellent fireproof performance. ​

Prefabricated houses are unique in fireproof design and material selection. Their walls are mostly made of materials with excellent fireproof performance, such as rock wool sandwich panels and fireproof gypsum boards. Rock wool sandwich panels use rock wool as the core material, which is non-flammable and can effectively prevent the spread of flames. When a fire occurs, it can greatly slow down the spread of the fire. Fireproof gypsum boards also have good fireproof properties. When exposed to high temperatures, the crystallized water in the board is released, absorbing heat and lowering the surrounding temperature, buying precious time for personnel evacuation and fire fighting and rescue. Some prefabricated houses will also add fireproof coatings to the exterior walls to further enhance the fireproof ability. The coating will expand at high temperatures to form an insulation layer and enhance the fire resistance limit of the wall.

Compared with traditional buildings, prefabricated houses have significant advantages in fire resistance. In the process of traditional building construction, gaps and weak points are prone to occur in material splicing and construction processes, which may become channels for fire spread in the event of a fire. Prefabricated houses are prefabricated in factories, with high component precision and tight splicing, which effectively reduces gaps and reduces fire hazards. In addition, traditional buildings are affected by on-site construction conditions, and the quality of materials and construction varies, making it difficult to ensure overall fire resistance. Prefabricated houses are produced in a standardized manner in factories, and the quality of materials and production processes are strictly controlled, which can ensure that the fire resistance of each component meets the standards and ensure the overall fire resistance effect of the house. ​

In real life, the fire resistance of prefabricated houses has withstood the test. In a fire accident in a certain area, the surrounding traditional buildings were severely damaged, while the temporary resettlement site using prefabricated houses nearby was close to the fire scene, but due to the good fire resistance of prefabricated houses, only the exterior was slightly damaged, and the internal structure and personnel safety were preserved, fully demonstrating the strong protection ability of prefabricated houses in fires.

With excellent fire resistance, prefabricated houses have a wide range of application scenarios. In areas where natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods occur frequently, temporary residences need to be built quickly. Prefabricated houses are easy to install and have reliable fire resistance, which can ensure the temporary safety of disaster victims. In tourist attractions, when building holiday cottages, the fire resistance of prefabricated houses can reduce the risk of forest fires, protect the lives and property of tourists, and the ecological environment of scenic spots. In urban construction, when used to build residential buildings such as apartments and dormitories, its fire resistance advantage can also create a safe living environment for residents. ​

Prefabricated houses have become a powerful guarantee for the safety of modern buildings with their reliable fire resistance. Whether it is to respond to emergency disasters or to meet daily living needs, prefabricated houses show unique value. With the continuous advancement of technology, I believe that prefabricated houses will shine in more fields and build a safer and more comfortable living space for people.
