Can container houses for living exceed three floors?
Container houses are also known as box-type panel houses, container activity houses, and Living Containers. They have many names and different structures, but their appearances are the same. It was initially transformed from a container as the basic material into a house with doors and beds, which was convenient to assemble and sturdy and durable. Nowadays, it is constructed using building panels. It can be used for rental properties as well as dormitories, and has been recognized and favored by people from all walks of life. So, can the floor height of container houses for living exceed three floors? Let's take a look at these three usage precautions.
1.Pay attention to fire prevention. Box-type Prefabricated Houses are often used on construction sites, so it is necessary to be vigilant against fires, especially for those with foam color steel plates as the base material. For instance, do not carry out open flame operations near the walls of the prefabricated houses. For instance, fireproof devices should be installed on equipment such as electric welding and heating stoves. Blowtorches should not be used on waterproofing materials in houses. When it is necessary to pass through walls, sleeves should be added for protection.
2. The ground foundation must be solid. As the weight of the sandwich panel is much lighter than that of the all-steel structure, if the container house is built with sandwich panel as the material, it may be dangerous when encountering strong wind and rain weather. Therefore, when building the container house, there should be a device to fix the bottom, especially in coastal cities that are frequently hit by typhoons, more attention must be paid.
3. The height must not exceed three floors. People may find that in some areas, the box-type prefabricated houses built have three or even more floors. This actually poses many hidden dangers. Because the living containers made of color steel plates are relatively light in weight, if they are built by stacking three layers together, it is very easy to have situations such as toppling over, which requires attention. Nowadays, container houses are also prohibited from exceeding three floors.
