The combination of container modules includes the positional relationship between boxes and the overlap form. In container buildings, since container modules exist as the basic components of structure and space at the same time, the combination of boxes is closely related to the space, structure, appearance, economy and sustainability of the building. In order to make the combination of boxes have a positive impact on the applicability, safety, beauty and economy of the building, Huji believes that the following aspects need to be paid attention to regarding the combination of boxes.
01 Rationality of building functional layout and convenience of internal and external traffic
In any type of architectural design, no matter what structure or construction system is used, the functional layout and traffic flow of the building should be fully considered, and the design of container buildings is no exception. In the design of the box combination, functional zoning should be done well, considering the different requirements of different use functions for plane position and space form, and at the same time, traffic flow should be organized to meet the requirements of daily access and emergency evacuation.
02 Efficiency and economy of the construction process
Before designing a container building, you should have a full understanding of the size characteristics of the box, and choose a module suitable for the length, width and height of the box in the design. In addition, the combination of boxes needs to conform to the shape characteristics of the box. For example, in the plane design, considering that the bottom shape of the box is a rectangle, a plane layout suitable for this rectangular unit should be selected. An overly complex or curved plane layout may increase unnecessary construction work and construction costs.
When each customer has a demand, the Huji brand will come up with a reasonable plan according to the relevant design points. In this way, the layout structure in the design can be truly satisfied, the creative shape displayed is more and more unique, and the cost performance will be significantly improved.
03 The user’s humanized demand for space
The plane layout of right angles can certainly meet the requirements of economy and construction efficiency, but since most building spaces are closely related to human activities, designers should also pay attention to whether the space generated by the box layout can give users enough intimacy and fun.
For example, in the design, the combination of boxes can be adjusted to set up an appropriate amount of communication, rest and fun space; in the design of cultural activity buildings, attention should be paid to the impact of space combination on people’s emotions: residential buildings should pay attention to the different needs of private space and semi-open space for space scale.
04 Structural efficiency and stability
Using containers as a special building component requires understanding the container’s ability to withstand various loads, as well as the container’s material properties and structural logic. When arranging the combination and overlap of the containers, a reasonable overlap method should be selected according to the structural characteristics of the container itself, including the adjustment of the overlap position and contact area, and the status of function, aesthetics and economy should be balanced as much as possible. When the load exceeds the strength of the container structure, a stabilization plan should be designed according to the situation.
05 Sustainability and ecological benefits
The combination of the boxes will affect the building layout, and then directly affect the building’s ventilation, lighting and other processes. Therefore, the box combination should try to avoid blocking natural ventilation or lighting, and achieve the purpose of self-shading in hot areas or blocking cold wind in cold areas through combination and layout, so as to guide the heat flow in the internal and external environment of the building to a direction that is conducive to saving building energy consumption.
06 The beauty of the building
For container prefabricated buildings, standardization and diversification are a contradiction in design. How to balance these two requirements and create a rich and diverse form using standard box modules is a big challenge for designers. The requirements and standards of container building design are a little higher.
When combining containers, it is necessary to ensure the efficiency and quality brought by standardization, and to break the single form through flexible combination, form changes, and create a diverse and unified order and rhythm. Attention should be paid to the scale, proportion, and coordination of virtuality and reality on the facade. The volume and shape combination of the container should be controlled in terms of shape, and attention should be paid to changes in size, height, concave and convex. In short, flexible combination methods should be used to break the monotonous and dull layout to meet the user’s aesthetic needs for the building.
