In November 2017, in addition to the title of the first “National Residential Industrialization Base” in Shanghai, STEC was granted and awarded again by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development of the People’s Republic of China, the Shanghai Municipal Science and Technology Commission and China Concrete and Cement Products Association, with the titles of “National Prefabricated Building Industry Base” and Shanghai’s first “Industrial Prefabricated Municipal Engineering Center”, and was appraised among the “National Top Ten Prefabricated Concrete Components” (Ranking first in Shanghai). The awarding and awarding mark that STEC has become the only enterprise group with the “Double Certification” from the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and the Municipal Science and Technology Commission, and possessing the life cycle management operational capability for prefabricated buildings from scientific research and design, development and management, production and manufacturing, building construction to operation and maintenance. It also marks that STEC has been fully trusted and affirmed by the government, industry and market in the industrialization and prefabricated of municipal infrastructure such as bridges and tunnels.
National Prefabricated Construction Industry Base
The National Prefabricated Construction Industry Base is recognized by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and aims to introduce prefabricated construction enterprises with the leading level in China in terms of technology, standards and management level, and with a demonstration and leading role in the industry. Since the granting of the title of “National Housing Industrialization Base” in 2011, STEC has always been at the forefront of the industry in terms of standard setting, technology research and development and project development for prefabricated buildings.
In the future, STEC will, relying on the national prefabricated construction industry base, be able to take advantage of the rich resources and technical advantages in the field of municipal engineering and construction engineering, and further improve the three core technical systems of fabricated buildings on the basis of existing technologies.
Shanghai Industrialization Prefabrication Municipal Engineering Technology Research Center
Licensed by the Shanghai Municipal Science and Technology Commission, and jointly operated by STEC Urban Construction and Design Institute, the Municipal Group, Shanghai Chengtou Group, and Tongji University, etc., Shanghai Industrialization Prefabrication Municipal Engineering Technology Research Center aims to, with respect to the insufficient domestic municipal engineering prefabricated technologies, carry out application development research and technological innovation, lead the future development trend in this field, and form a sustainable innovation system with domestic influence and the whole industry chain.
After 2-3 years of construction and development, Shanghai Industrialization Prefabrication Municipal Engineering Technology Research Center will be built into a professional institute in dedicated field involving the key technologies of the prefabricated municipal engineering structure and the technical research and development of the whole industrial chain.
In the next stage, the Research Center will focus on the key technology research of new pile foundation structure design and construction, the key technology research of prefabrication and assembly of large cover beam, the key technology research of prefabrication of bridge pier and column, the R&D of new UHPC materials and its application in bridge engineering, promoting the technological progress in this field and becoming the backup force of the National Engineering Technology Research Center.
