Mining Camp Dormitory Design Scheme (Based on CBC Flatpack Container House Modules)

 

This scheme is fully designed based on the CBC flatpack container house product modules, leveraging the product's advantages of flat-pack transportation, rapid assembly, and structural durability to meet the special needs of mining camp accommodation. The core specifications and structural features of the modules are consistent with CBC's standard flatpack container house series, ensuring product reliability and supply stability.

 

 

Management Staff: 50 single rooms (1 person/room)

Workers: 600 persons, 2 persons/room, totaling 300 double rooms

Total Rooms: 50 + 300 = 350 rooms (each room is one container module)

 

 

External Dimensions: Width 2.438m, Length 6m, Height 2.7m (consistent with CBC flatpack container house standard module dimensions)

Structure: Adopts CBC flatpack container house's integrated prefabricated system, including integrated roof, prefabricated load-bearing floor, 4 high-strength steel columns, and 14 pieces of 75mm thick flame-retardant sandwich panels (5 on long sides, 2 on short sides per module). The prefabricated doors and windows are factory-installed in panels according to CBC's strict quality control standards, ensuring airtightness and dust-proof performance.

Connection Mode: Utilizes CBC flatpack container house's dedicated long-side connection system-each module is firmly connected by its 6m long sides through high-strength corrosion-resistant bolts matching CBC's product specifications. Doors are set on the 2.438m short side of each module, with two parallel rows of modules arranged door-to-door, and a central corridor reserved between them. This layout is optimized based on CBC flatpack modules' assembly characteristics, maximizing space utilization while ensuring structural stability.

 

Maximum 3 floors; Light steel roof; Central corridor, stairs and walkways included.

 

 

 

The building has 3 floors in total, adopting a two-row door-to-door layout optimized for CBC flatpack container house modules, which is highly compatible with the intensive accommodation demand of mining camps. Each CBC flatpack module is connected by its long side (6m side) to form continuous rows, leveraging the product's inherent structural rigidity to enhance overall stability against frequent wind and dust disturbances in mining areas. The door of each CBC module is opened on the short side (2.438m side), directly facing the central corridor-this design not only aligns with the module's structural layout but also minimizes exposure of door gaps to mining dust, reducing cleaning costs. To meet mining camp management needs, the building is divided into two independent functional areas using CBC modules: management single rooms and worker double rooms, arranged by floors with separate stair access. This separation is achievable through the flexible combination of CBC flatpack modules, avoiding personnel mixing and facilitating safety control, which is fully adapted to mining project management modes.

 

 

Total 350 rooms, 3 floors → Average 117 rooms/floor (116 rooms for 2 floors, 118 rooms for 1 floor, balanced distribution).

Two rows layout → 58-59 rooms per row per floor (58 rooms/row for 2 floors, 59 rooms/row for 1 floor).

 

 

Length (L): Determined by the number of modules per row (long-side connection). Each module length = 2.438m; 59 modules per row → Total length = 59 × 2.438m = 143.842m (considering 20mm gap between modules for connection, total gap = 58 × 0.02m = 1.16m) → Final length = 143.842m + 1.16m = 145m.

Width (W): Two rows of modules + central corridor. Single module width = 6m; Central corridor width = 1.8m (standard for pedestrian passage). Total width = 6m × 2 + 1.8m = 13.8m.

Height (H): 3 floors of modules + light steel roof. Each module height = 2.7m; 3 floors height = 3 × 2.7m = 8.1m; Light steel roof height (ridge height) = 1.5m (gable roof, slope 1:5) → Total building height = 8.1m + 1.5m = 9.6m.

Summary of Overall Dimensions: Length 145m × Width 13.8m × Height 9.6m.
