Guangxi Province will vigorously promote prefabricated construction and gradually increase the rate of building assembly

Recently, the "Implementation Plan for the Industrialization of New Buildings (Draft for Soliciting Opinions)" (hereinafter referred to as the "Draft for Soliciting Opinions") drafted by the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Department of Guangxi Autonomous Region solicited opinions and suggestions publicly. By the end of 2021, the construction of new affordable housing, commercial housing, and dormitory (apartment) buildings in the central urban areas of Nanning, Liuzhou and Yulin cities should adopt the "three boards" system as required.

"Building a house is like building blocks." This is the image metaphor of the construction industry for the construction of prefabricated buildings. Prefabricated buildings have the advantages of high degree of industrialization, short construction period, convenient transportation of components and parts, and environmental protection. The "Draft for Solicitation of Comments" proposes that prefabricated buildings should be taken as the entry point for the industrialization of new buildings, and a new industrialization system of buildings in Guangxi will be established. By 2023, the construction area of newly constructed prefabricated construction projects in various districts and cities will account for more than 15% of the newly built construction area.

At the same time, the "Draft for Comments" proposed to vigorously promote the prefabricated construction method. Accelerate the application of prefabricated stair slabs, prefabricated floor slabs and prefabricated interior and exterior wall panels (hereinafter referred to as "three panels"), and strengthen the technical research of prefabricated beams, columns and other load-bearing components, and gradually increase the building assembly rate.

By the end of 2021, realize the construction of new affordable housing, commercial housing, dormitory (apartment) buildings, new hospitals, hotels, office buildings, and single buildings with a building area of more than 20,000 square meters in the urban centers of Nanning, Liuzhou and Yulin, as well as new school buildings with a single building area of more than 5,000 square meters, should adopt the "three-board" system as required. By 2023, prefabricated construction will account for more than 30% of newly built large and medium-sized buildings with state-owned capital investment. Encourage other state-owned investment projects to adopt prefabricated construction; gradually increase the proportion of prefabricated construction for real estate projects . Promote prefabricated decoration and increase the proportion of full decoration in real estate development and construction projects year by year. At the same time, promote the application of green building materials and assembly-based green construction methods.

Prefabricated projects will enjoy more support policies. The "Draft for Solicitation of Opinions" proposes that for projects constructed by prefabricated construction methods, the procedures for project initiation, program approval, pre-sale permits and other related procedures can be handled first through the "green channel". During periods of heavy pollution, the construction of non-earth and stone operations may not stop; participate in the evaluation and evaluation of various construction projects, as well as the quality awards of various levels of government, the green building innovation awards, etc. to give extra points or tilts.
