Why Are Prefabricated Functional Rooms Gaining Popularity? Reinforced Concrete Casting + Modular Assembly – 6 Times Faster Than Traditional House Construction
While traditional construction sites are still anxious about the "six-month construction period," prefabricated functional rooms have redefined the ceiling of construction efficiency with their "72-hour on-site completion" speed. Their surge in popularity is no accident — the robust quality of reinforced concrete casting, combined with the flexible nature of modular assembly, has turned house construction from a "protracted battle" into a "blitzkrieg." It is six times faster than traditional techniques, and it also embodies a precise response to the era of efficiency.
The emergency expansion project of a Shanghai exhibition is a typical case: 10 days before the exhibition opened, the organizing committee suddenly decided to add a 300-square-meter reception area. Using traditional methods, it would take at least 45 days from foundation laying to completion, which would definitely result in missing the exhibition. However, after the prefabricated functional room team took over the order, the factory simultaneously launched the prefabrication of 12 modules. The welding of steel frames, concrete casting, and interior installation progressed in parallel, and all components were produced within 48 hours. On-site hoisting took only 12 hours, and the reception area was put into use immediately after water and electricity were connected. The entire process from order placement to activation took 7 days, shortening the construction period by nearly six times compared with the traditional method and saving the critical reception window for the exhibition.
Behind this speed is a model innovation of "factory prefabrication + on-site assembly." 90% of the processes for reinforced concrete modules are completed in the workshop, with water and electricity pipelines, doors, windows, and decorations pre-installed. On-site, only module connection like building with Lego bricks is needed. More importantly, speed does not come at the cost of quality: the compressive strength of C30 concrete reaches 30MPa, and the module joints adopt waterproof sealing technology with a impermeability grade of P8, making it safe to use even in rainy areas.
From store expansion before the peak season of scenic spots to temporary offices urgently needed at construction sites, prefabricated functional rooms have proven with their "six times faster" strength: in an era where efficiency reigns supreme, construction should not be a reason for waiting. The sturdiness of reinforced concrete and the flexibility of modularity are turning "build-on-demand" from an imagination into a reality — this is perhaps the ultimate reason for their surge in popularity.
