On July 4th, the first module of the Nanbu High-tech Prefabricated School project in Ping Mountain District, Shenzhen, undertaken by China State Construction's Integrated Solutions, was successfully lifted into place. This milestone marks the transition of the project into a full-scale and rapid construction phase. The school is designed to be completed within 60 days, featuring a two-story building with a high assembly rate of over 90%. The modular design allows for easy assembly like building blocks, ensuring a quick response to educational needs in various settings, such as emergency situations or areas with a sudden increase in student population.

The Nanbu High-tech Prefabricated School project (hereinafter referred to as "the project") is located at the southeast corner of the intersection of Lijing South Road and Yintian Middle Road in Shijing Street, Ping Mountain District, Shenzhen. The project includes buildings for teaching and auxiliary use, as well as living service rooms. It also involves the simultaneous construction of outdoor sports fields, roads, plazas, supporting pipelines, and greening projects.

The school is designed to be completed within 60 days, featuring a two-story building with a high assembly rate of over 90%. It utilizes Steel Modular Construction (SMC) technology, dividing the entire building into multiple unit modules. These unit modules are prefabricated and integrated in the factory, ensuring processing accuracy while construction work interfaces do not interfere with each other. After the unit modules are shipped from the factory, they are transported to the construction site for module hoisting, decoration, and equipment pipeline assembly, allowing for rapid use. This achieves standardization of the main structure, integration of MEP and decoration, and modularization of the enclosure walls, with an assembly rate of over 90%. It is like building modules like cars and assembling them like building blocks quickly.

During the initial phase of construction, the site was overgrown with numerous trees and weeds, necessitating extensive site clearance and leveling. The project team faced the challenge of a complex site environment, an extremely tight 60-day construction schedule, and the additional complication of heavy rainfall typical of Shenzhen's climate. Despite these hurdles, the project team forged ahead, diligently adhering to the construction plan and systematically achieving key milestones. Their efforts ensured the project's timely completion, meeting contractual obligations.

▲Before and after construction site comparison.

The project, as part of China State Construction's Integrated Solutions' "Flash Construction School" series, utilizes Steel Modular Construction (SMC) technology. The building is divided into multiple unit modules, which are prefabricated and integrated within the factory. This approach ensures precision in manufacturing while also ensuring that different construction work interfaces do not interfere with each other.

After the unit modules are manufactured, they are transported to the construction site for hoisting, followed by decoration and assembly of the equipment and pipeline connections. This allows for rapid deployment and use. The process achieves standardization of the main structure, integration of MEP and finishing, and modularization of the enclosure walls, with an assembly rate of over 90%. It's akin to constructing schools like cars and assembling them as swiftly as building blocks.

China State Construction's Integrated Solutions will proceed with the project's hoisting, facade construction, MEP installation, and interior and exterior decoration in an orderly fashion. They aim to continuously enhance the overall construction speed and quality, and with a "craftsman spirit," rapidly create a green and smart prefabricated campus to contribute to the development of education in Ping Mountain District.

In recent years, Ping Mountain District of Shenzhen has placed a high emphasis on the development of education and public welfare, increasing investment in education to enhance the supply of quality educational places. The "Flash Construction School" product by China State Construction's Integrated Solutions can not only rapidly address the issue of educational places but also meet the diverse, intelligent, and interactive requirements of future education. It achieves rapid, green, and quality delivery, becoming a new trend in campus architecture development.
