FAQ

Factory-built homes start as being completed in an indoor factory. The completed sections are transported to the building site and assembled by crane. The process is similar to children's construction with Legos. Modular homes cannot be moved after they have been placed on their foundations.
If you are designing your own home, be sure to ask specific questions, as each manufacturer operates under different guidelines.Tseason Modular Homes offers hundreds of personalized features, including (but not limited to) flooring, solid-surface countertops, a variety of cabinet styles and wood species, exterior finishes, sanitary fixtures, and more, to customize your home from the ground up.

Thermal conductivity, denoted by λ, is a material's ability to conduct heat. It is the amount of heat transferred through a 1-meter-thick material with a temperature difference of 1 degree (K or °C) across its two surfaces per square meter of area in one second. The unit of thermal conductivity is watts per meter per degree Kelvin (W/m·K), which can also be represented as W/(m·K) or W/m·K (where K can be replaced with °C).

Factors Affecting Thermal Conductivity:

1. Material Composition: Different materials have varying thermal conductivity values.
2. Material Structure: The same material can exhibit different thermal conductivity depending on its structure, density, humidity, temperature, and pressure. In general, materials with lower water content and lower temperatures have lower thermal conductivity.
3. State of Matter: Solids generally have higher thermal conductivity than liquids, and liquids have higher thermal conductivity than gases. This difference is mainly due to the varying intermolecular spacing in these states.
4. Experimental Determination: Thermal conductivity values used in engineering calculations are typically obtained through specialized experimental measurements.

Tseason Core Material Thermal Conductivity rate is below.The lower the thermal conductivity, the better the insulation.

Rock wool sandwich panel is an inorganic material, with natural rock as the primary raw material, mixed with a small amount of blast furnace slag. Mineral fiber is made by high-temperature melting and centrifugal blowing, combined with a certain proportion of binder and additives through the pendulum pressing and cutting. It has good fireproof performance and is widely used in the construction field. The A1 grade rock wool sandwich panel is a non-combustible material, not easy to burn, will not release heat and toxic smoke, and can effectively cut off the flame spread in case of fire. 

In general, the fire resistance rating of rock wool sandwich panels is influenced by variations in density (i.e., bulk density) and the rock wool boards' thickness. 

Tseason's rock wool sandwich panels typically offer fire resistance ratings ranging from 1.5 to 3 hours. However, a 150mm thick sandwich panel can achieve a fire-resistance rating of up to 4 hours.

Cast-in-place concrete pavement includes two kinds of unreinforced concrete and reinforced concrete: rigid pavement structure. They have high strength, water stability, and thermal stability, are better; they have a smooth surface, good wear resistance, resistance to oil corrosion, and high temperatures in the intense load will not cause wave deformation, long service life, and less maintenance costs.

Ring beam: the role of the ring beam is mainly to regulate the possible uneven settlement, strengthen the foundation's integrity, and make the foundation reaction force more uniform. Geological conditions are good when you can not set the ring beam, but from the connection of structural columns so that the ring beam structural columns form a fragile framework and do both indoor and outdoor waterproofing, or set with a better.

Tseason flat packing houses and modular houses can all be reused, with a reuse rate of over 95%.

The environmental performance of integrated housing products is also reflected in the following aspects:

• The house structure adopts a steel factory prefabricated form, which minimizes the construction waste generated at the installation site.
• Flat Packing houses have good thermal insulation and heat preservation performance, which can effectively maintain indoor temperature and reduce energy consumption.
• The window design of box houses fully considers lighting and ventilation so that the house can use natural light and reduce reliance on artificial lighting.

In addition, to actively respond to China's dual carbon policy, Tseason has tested the carbon emissions of the entire life cycle of its products. Taking box houses as an example, compared with fixed buildings, the carbon emissions of box houses are only 30% of the carbon emissions of fixed buildings in the same area. Each reuse can reduce carbon emissions by 4.38 tons.

All Tseason series house products have good water and leak resistance performance.

Assembly houses and light steel villa products have corresponding structural waterproof patents and anti-leakage process measures.

For box house products, we adopt a four-corner centralized drainage method. Through shower tests, it can meet 16mm/min precipitation under a smooth drainage system, equivalent to medium to heavy rain.

If the local rainfall is significant or frequent, adding a double-slope roof and changing the drainage method from centralized drainage to roof drainage can also help reduce the noise caused by rainwater hitting the roof.

The structural and maintenance systems of Tseason housing products all use A-level and B1-level fireproof materials that meet national standards and comply with domestic fire protection requirements.

In addition, in order to open up the Middle East market, our company has conducted INTERTEK fire resistance tests for 1 hour on the maintenance materials of the houses and obtained the corresponding certificates.

Tseason integrated house products can withstand an earthquake intensity of 8 degrees, equivalent to a seismic resistance level 6.4.

In addition, our company has jointly conducted a housing product ultimate load-bearing capacity experiment with Tsinghua University, which has verified that Tseason Module house products have this level of seismic resistance performance.

In the event of an earthquake, the light steel structure products have better flexibility, which can effectively reduce the destructive force and harm to personnel.

Tseason standard product designs all meet the most basic load parameters, with a wind pressure of 0.45KN/㎡, equivalent to a 10-level wind.

If the project site has a harsh environment and high wind pressure, the standard structure cannot meet the load-bearing requirements, and the structure needs to be reinforced. The reinforcement measures are usually divided into house structure reinforcement and external structure auxiliary reinforcement.

For example, in house structure reinforcement, the cross-section of the main load-bearing beams and columns is increased, or reinforcement accessories are added to the leading load-bearing node positions; in external structure, auxiliary reinforcement, anti-wind cables, and other measures can be added.

At the same time, the enclosure materials also need to be reinforced, such as adding structural purlins, Encrypting the fixing of self-tapping nails, and other measures to ensure the safe use of the house.

Tseason has project cases in regions with strong winds, such as the Bahamas and Mauritius, all of which have been tested by winds of 12 levels or above.

In particular, in 2012, Tseason participated in the construction of the China Construction America Bahamas project, which successfully resisted the attack of Hurricane Elena, a Category 17 hurricane.

The lifespan of a container house can vary depending on the type of house and how it is used.

Depending on the customer's application scenario, Tseason container houses can meet the needs of both temporary and semi-permanent construction.

Here is a breakdown of the typical lifespan for different types of container houses:

• Module House: These are typically used for accommodation, office space, and storage. Depending on the customer's needs, they can last 5-20 years.
• Flat Packing Houses: These have a wide range of applications and can typically last 8-15 years, depending on the specific use environment. With a unique design, they can last up to 25 years.
• Light Steel Villas are typically used for new rural houses, cultural tourism accommodation, and high-end camp housing. They can be considered semi-permanent buildings lasting up to 50 years with professional technical treatment.

Many factors can affect the lifespan of a container house, such as the climate and environment in which it is used and how frequently it is used.

In the design process of Tsesaon Flat Packing houses, we pay more attention to the structural safety and material durability of the houses.

We will develop material standards based on different usage environments and lifespan requirements and verify them through experiments.

For example, through salt spray experiments, we will develop anti-corrosion standards for structural and enclosure materials to ensure the structural safety and normal use of the houses within the design lifespan.
