How To Expend The Life Span Of Container Houses?
In recent years, general construction has entered a new stage of upgrading. The prefabricated container house is a new type of mobile home. It is highly favored by the market, but the life span of container houses is slightly lower than ordinary brick and concrete constructions.
Therefore, how to extend the life span of the container house is the most concerning topic for the users who are enthusiastic about this fast installation, movable, and modular houses.
Here, BUWO put forward 4 points of advice:
1. Ensure That The Load-Bearing Weight Is Within The Specified Range
The larger load-bearing weight of the container house shall be calculated according to its size and specifications. The container structure will be damaged if the internal objects’ weight is much heavier than its carrying capacity for a long duration. During daily use, avoid placing heavy goods can extend the life span of container houses.
2. Take Protective Measures During The Transportation
During the transportation and lifting process, it should use buffers such as wooden frame pad, rubber block or shockproof cotton to protect the house from collision.
Besides, cutting the movements numbers can also extend the life span of container houses.
3. Do anti-corrosion work and regular maintenance
Generally, the container house is installed in urban construction areas or suburban areas of big cities. We should first pay attention to whether they will be corroded by strong acid or alkali or other chemicals. If yes, we need to pay extra attention to the anti-corrosion ability of the housing shell.
If the house is used in the natural environment, we can only do the regular paint maintenance work, and repair it after scratching.
4.Pay attention to the sealing of the house connections
During the installation process, we need to ensure that connections for each part of the house are well sealed to prevent water seepage and lead to housing materials getting wet, rust, etc.
