Research on Restricting Factors and Countermeasure of Assembled Architecture Development

Abstract

With the drawbacks of traditional construction methods becoming more and more prominent, many cities in China have responded to the call to actively promote assembly building. In some industrialized developed countries, assembly building occupies a high proportion and a mature technical system, including high standardization of parts, components, and perfect industrial chain. Compared with developed countries, cast-in-situ construction is the main construction method in China, and the construction efficiency is not high. In order to save resources, protect the environment and speed up the structural reform of supply in the construction industry, assembly building has become a way to reform the construction mode in China. This paper first analyses the difference between assembled building and cast-in-place building, then analyses the restricting factors on assembled building, and finally it puts forward some suggestions.

The Efficiency of the Chinese Prefabricated Building Industry and Its Influencing Factors: An Empirical Study

“…In addition, the prefabricated construction industry is the product of the transformation and upgrading of the traditional construction industry, which is a knowledge-intensive industry [5]. Compared with the traditional construction industry, the required employees are industrial workers with high technical level, which results in significantly fewer employees [4]. Therefore, the number of employees cannot accurately measure the impact of investment scale control ability on the efficiency of the prefabricated construction industry.…”

“…The accelerated pace of the country's rural revitalization strategy and the increase in employment opportunities for villagers has increased the problem of aging construction workers, and the number of new young construction workers has dropped significantly, resulting in a labor shortage in the country's industry. The overall technical content of the country's construction industry is low, and it is still labor-intensive, rather than technology-intensive [4]. The formation of a high-quality development system framework and apparent improvements in the industrialization, digitalization, and intelligence levels of buildings have contributed to the rapid development of the prefabricated building industry and the effective alleviation of many problems that affect the current stage.…”
