Affordable housing,usually called prefabricated affordable home/house,is a kind of housing soluton that uses light structural steel as main frame,insulated panels for wall and roof cladding and bolted structure.Affordable housing has wide applications in temporary housing situation like construction labor camp,disaster relief area and lower income people considering its advantages of fast installation,cost-saving,sturdy structure and environtent friendly.

I.Affordable housing model design and plans

Affordable housing could be in various models whether in single story or multi-story,or different function rooms(bedroom,kitchen,living room,dining room,bathroom,storage room etc) based on the clients' requests.Many people may concern about the look of a affordable housing.But there could be different options for the affordable house look like coupled slope,hipped roof and even multi-slope roof.What's more,your affordable house could be even equipped with veranda,fences or posts.To sum up,a prefabricated affordable house could be in different forms just like a traditional brick or concrete house.


II.Components of a house.

The components of a affordable house mainly encompass the main frames,wall and roof panels,ceilings,doors and windows and other necessary accessories.

(1)MAIN FRAME

For a house that would be built up in less windy area,we could use the rectangle hollow section as structural column and beam.If the house would be built up in gale area,it is better that we use the H section steel.

About the surface treatment of the structural steel members,KXD provides anti-corrosive gray painted and galvanized.


(2)Wall and Roof Panel System
Prefabricated affordable houses adopt plug-in system which uses the U channel to accommodate the wall panel.For the roof,the panel could be directly fixed upon the roof structure by bolts.


About the wall and roof panel options,the most commonly used is sandwich panel which includes EPS,Fiberglas wool,Rockwool and PU.The thickness of sandwich panel is 50mm,75mm,100mm and 150mm.The followings are the differences of sandwich panel in the affordable houses:

A:EPS sandwich panel:EPS sandwich panel is commonly used for prefab house wall and roof(ceiling) panel.Considering its light density(8kg/m³,10kg/m³and 12kg/m³ options) and its non-fire proof property,EPS sandwich panel house is applicable for less windy area and the owner who has lower fire-proof requirements for the house. 

B:Fiberglass/Rock wool sandwich panel:Fiberglass or rock wool sandwich panel also could be used for the wall system and roof(ceiling) panel.With its fire-proof(rock wool has the highest level of fire-proof even better fiberglass wool),thermal insulation an higher density(60kg/m³)properties,the fiberglass or rock wool sandwich panel house could be used in gale weather area What's more,if the customer has specific request for fire-proof condition,fiberglass or rock wool would be a good option. 

C:PU sandwich panel has strong and stable structure itself and non-deformable ability due to its comprehensive higher density which could withstand >6.7KPa wind pressure and >400J impact strength.Hence PU panel for house has good wind uplift resistance capability. It is also ideal for gale or strong wind areas even in cyclone situation to use PU sandwich panel house.Like the EPS and fiberglass wool,PU panel also is used for house wall and roof(ceiling) panel.And PU panel is also fire-proof.

Besides the thermal insulated sandwich panel,KXD also provide the Cement foam and Stone Chip Coated Steel Roof Tiles.


EPS cement panel refers to a novelty in efficiency and lightweight panel reinforced with fiber cement or calcium silicate, and also filled with cement, polyethylene, ceramics, coal ashes as main material.This product can replace the red brick, brick Clay, hollow brick, mixed sandwich, gypsum blocks, perlite and perlite porous plate and other building materials, which is widely applicable in various types of wall building solutions, such as banks, offices, hospitals, schools, hotels etc. .
Regular Size:
Width: 610 mm
Thickness: 60 mm, 75 mm, 90 mm, 100 mm, 120 mm, 150 mm, 180 mm
Length: 2,270 mm, 3,000 mm (the length of the panel can be measured with the unlimited of 3,000 mm.)

Supporting installation materials cement foam panel:


(3)Ceilings,trim and other accessories.

For the ceiling,there is sandwich panel ceiling,gypsum board ceiling and PVC ceiling.Also our house is equipped with baseboards,trims and other accessories.

(4)Doors,windows and interior fittings
