Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of construction method technology, and more specifically, relates to a prefabricated building construction method without external scaffolding. Background Technology
[0002] Prefabricated construction, as an emerging construction method, has been widely used in many countries and regions in recent years due to its advantages such as high material utilization, short construction cycle, and controllable quality. Compared with traditional cast-in-place concrete buildings, a major feature of prefabricated construction is the extensive use of precast components, which greatly improves construction efficiency and safety. However, in actual construction, the hoisting and installation of these precast components still requires a large number of external support frames, causing some inconvenience to on-site operations. Currently, some prefabricated construction projects use the practice of pre-installing temporary protective devices on precast components, mainly including guardrails, safety nets, and protective sheds. To ensure the safety of construction workers, these protective devices often obstruct part of the construction area, affecting the smooth progress of hoisting and installation operations. Furthermore, these temporary protective facilities need to be removed separately after construction, increasing the overall construction period and cost.
[0003] Another solution is to utilize the building's own structure as protective support, eliminating the need for external protective scaffolding. This method can significantly reduce the use of temporary facilities, but it also presents several technical challenges. First, precise pre-planning is required during the prefabrication stage to meet the requirements of subsequent protective device installation. Second, the installation of protective devices needs to be highly coordinated with the hoisting and positioning of the main building structure; otherwise, it will affect the overall construction progress. Furthermore, the arrangement of protective devices must meet the safety requirements of the building during its use, such as protection height and strength. In conclusion, how to achieve scaffold-free protection in prefabricated building construction is a crucial technical problem that the industry urgently needs to solve. This issue not only involves construction safety but also relates to construction efficiency and cost control. Therefore, developing a scaffold-free construction method for prefabricated buildings can provide an effective solution to this problem and has significant practical implications. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a prefabricated building construction method without external scaffolding. By embedding reserved bolts and pre-installing protective supports during the production stage of prefabricated components, a stable and reliable protective system is simultaneously built during the hoisting and positioning of the main structure. This method not only greatly reduces the use of temporary protective facilities, but also avoids interference with construction operations caused by external protective frames, thereby improving the overall construction efficiency.

[0164] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of the prefabricated building construction method without external scaffolding provided by this invention are:
[0165] 1. The protective system is more integrated. By reserving installation positions during the prefabrication stage and pre-assembling key components such as protective supports, the installation of the protective system can be carried out simultaneously with the hoisting of the main structure. This avoids the problem of mutual interference between the installation of protective facilities and the construction of the main structure in traditional practices, and improves the overall smoothness of construction;
[0166] 2. Enhanced Protective Performance. This invention utilizes standardized protective poles, protective wire ropes, and protective plates, among other components. Through optimized design and precise assembly, a multi-layered protective system is constructed. Key aspects such as the tension control of the protective wire ropes and the overlap design of the protective plates have undergone thorough theoretical calculations and practical verification, ensuring the stability and reliability of the protective effect.
[0167] 3. Construction costs and schedule are effectively controlled. By eliminating the need for numerous temporary protective facilities and avoiding delays caused by conflicts between the installation of protective devices and the main structure construction, the present invention is significantly superior to traditional methods in terms of overall economy and schedule management. Furthermore, the pre-installation and pre-assembly of precast components during the production stage also reduces the difficulty of on-site installation to some extent, further saving manpower and material costs.
[0168] In summary, the prefabricated building construction method without external scaffolding proposed in this invention fully utilizes the advantages of factory production of prefabricated components. While ensuring construction safety, it significantly improves overall construction efficiency and reduces construction costs, laying a solid technical foundation for the promotion and application of prefabricated buildings in high-rise, large-span, and other fields.

[0175] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0176] Example 1:
[0177] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, a large-scale prefabricated residential project is located in the coastal area of East China. The building is 25 stories high with a total construction area of approximately 60,000 square meters. The project adopts a reinforced concrete prefabricated structural system, mainly assembled from prefabricated components such as beams, slabs, and columns. During the construction preparation phase, the construction unit, considering the characteristics of the project, formulated and implemented the prefabricated building scaffold-free construction scheme proposed in this invention. The specific implementation process is described below.
[0178] First, during the precast component production stage, pre-embedded bolts for the guardrails are installed inside each precast component mold. Specifically, the placement, spacing, and height requirements of the guardrails are determined based on architectural design drawings and structural calculations. Then, a complete building information model, including the guardrails, is created using 3D modeling software such as Revit. The precise coordinates of each pre-embedded bolt are marked in this model. Next, detailed design drawings for the guardrails are generated, including floor plans, elevations, and detailed node drawings. These drawings are then input into the CNC system of the precast component production line to guide the placement of the bolt locators within the molds. Finally, the bolts are installed on the locators, and the mold is removed after concrete pouring, completing the precise installation of the bolts.
[0179] Based on this, the factory pre-installed protective supports on the surface of the precast components. First, the position and quantity of each pre-installed bolt were checked to ensure they met the requirements of the guardrail detailing drawings. Then, debris around the bolts was cleaned to ensure the threads were intact. Next, the protective supports were aligned with the pre-installed bolts, inserted, and initially secured with a wrench. A level was used to check the levelness of the supports, making minor adjustments if necessary. Subsequently, the bolts were tightened to the specified torque with a torque wrench to ensure a secure connection. The fit between the supports and the surface of the precast components was checked to ensure there were no obvious gaps. Finally, anti-rust paint was applied to the support surface, and the installation position and quality of each support were recorded in the construction record sheet.
[0180] During the hoisting of precast components, an aerial work platform was used for assistance. The project team selected a crawler-type tower crane with a rated lifting capacity of 30 tons, equipped with an 18-meter-long aerial work platform. First, a comprehensive inspection of the lifting equipment was conducted to confirm its integrity. Then, the precast component was reliably connected with slings, and the tower crane was slowly started to lift it. Simultaneously, the operators drove the aerial work platform to the vicinity of the precast component's installation position. During the hoisting process, the tower crane operator and the aerial work platform operator worked closely together, adjusting the aerial posture of the precast component to ensure it was perfectly aligned with the target position. After repeated confirmation, once the precast component was accurately positioned, it was initially secured with temporary fasteners. Finally, the installation position and elevation of the component were checked to ensure it met design requirements.
[0181] After the main structure was hoisted, the protective system was immediately erected. First, the standardized protective poles were inspected to ensure their structural integrity and absence of any deformation or damage. The bottom of the poles was aligned with the connecting holes on the protective supports, and M16 bolts were used for connection. The bolts were initially tightened with a wrench, but some adjustment space was left. Next, the verticality of the poles was checked with a level, revealing a 2° deviation. The contact surface between the poles and supports was fine-tuned to correct it to perfect verticality. Based on the actual site conditions, the final height of the poles was adjusted to 1500 mm. The connecting bolts were tightened to 300 Nm with a torque wrench to ensure a secure and reliable connection.
[0182] After the poles were in place, workers began installing the protective wire ropes between them. First, the wire rope specifications were checked: 12 mm in diameter and a breaking strength of 45 kN. One end of the rope was secured to the starting pole, then passed through the fixing points on each of the intermediate poles in sequence, and finally secured to the ending pole with wire rope clamps. The initial tension was measured at 3 kN using a tension meter. By adjusting the clamps, the tension was gradually increased to 6 kN. At this point, the deflection at mid-span was measured at 18 mm, meeting the requirement of being within 20 mm. Finally, the firmness of all connections was checked to ensure a reliable primary protection system was formed.
[0183] Next, the workers began installing the standardized protective panels. First, they confirmed that the horizontal components of the building's side spans were fully in place. The 20mm thick, 1200mm high protective panels were aligned with the installation positions of the steel wire ropes. The upper clips on the panels were opened and fastened to the upper steel wire rope, then gently pressed down to ensure a tight fit. Next, the lower clips were opened and fastened to the lower steel wire rope. The verticality of the panels was checked and found to be less than 2mm, requiring no further adjustment. The overlap length between adjacent panels was ensured to be no less than 100mm. Finally, the installation position and status of each panel were recorded in the construction log.
[0184] Next, the workers began installing the baseboards. First, the dimensions of the baseboards were checked: 20 mm thick, 300 mm high, and made of steel. The installation positions of the baseboards were marked on the lower steel wire rope. Pre-fitted clips were installed on the back of the baseboards, ensuring a secure connection. Then, the baseboards were aligned with the marked positions, and the clips were released to fasten them to the steel wire rope. The baseboards were adjusted to be level, making them perfectly parallel to the ground. The distance from the bottom edge of the baseboard to the ground was measured at 320 mm, meeting the requirement of not exceeding 350 mm. No noticeable gaps were checked between adjacent baseboards. The installation height and coverage area of the baseboards were recorded in the construction log.
[0185] After completing the aforementioned protective system, some areas still had kickstand heights exceeding the 350 mm limit. For these areas, workers added steel pipes. First, the dimensions of the gaps to be filled were measured, with a maximum height of 420 mm. Based on these measurements, steel pipes with a diameter of 48.3 mm and a wall thickness of 3.2 mm were selected. M16 threads were machined into the pipe ends for connection to the protective supports. One end of the pipe was reliably connected to the lower support and tightened to 200 Nm with a torque wrench. The pipe's tilt angle was adjusted to align with the upper support. Then, the other end of the pipe was connected to the upper support and tightened to 200 Nm as well. The installation stability of the steel pipes was checked, and they were found to fit well with the surrounding components without significant wobbling. Finally, all newly added steel pipes were sprayed with a layer of anti-rust paint to improve their durability.
[0186] After nearly three months of main structure construction and protective system setup, the prefabricated building project entered the interior and exterior decoration phase. Throughout this period, the protective system played a crucial role, effectively ensuring the safety of personnel on the construction site. Once all construction work was completed, participating units organized personnel to systematically dismantle the protective system. First, the protective uprights and kickboards were removed sequentially, starting from the top floor. When removing the steel wire ropes, workers used a slow, gentle loosening method to avoid injury from sudden release of elasticity. Subsequently, the protective uprights were dismantled and separated from their supports. Steel pipes used to fill gaps were removed first, followed by the protective supports. During dismantling, workers cleaned and made simple repairs to reusable components, preparing them for use in the next phase of the project. The entire dismantling operation lasted two weeks without any safety incidents.
[0187] By implementing this prefabricated building construction method that eliminates the need for external scaffolding, the project significantly improved overall construction efficiency while ensuring construction safety. Statistics show that compared to using traditional external protective scaffolding, this method saved 8.5 million yuan in direct costs and shortened the construction period by one month. At the same time, the reliability of the protective system was effectively guaranteed.

[0194] S50. Install protective steel wire ropes between protective poles and fix them with bolts, controlling the downward deflection of the protective steel wire ropes in the middle of the span to within 20 mm, forming a first-level protection system;
[0195] S60. After the horizontal components of the building's side span are hoisted, the protective uprights are fixed to the protective wire ropes using the upper and lower clips of the standardized protective uprights.
[0196] S70. The bottom kick plate is fixed to the lower protective steel wire rope by a standardized buckle, and the height of the bottom kick space is controlled within 350 mm.
[0197] S80. For the portion exceeding the height of the bottom kick space, steel pipes are used to connect with protective supports to eliminate gaps and form a two-level protection system.
[0198] S90. Complete the later construction work and dismantle the protective system after the construction is completed;

[0203] S24. Assess fitness: Based on the finite element analysis results, and considering safety requirements and economic factors, calculate a fitness value for each layout scheme. The fitness function should take into account structural safety factor, material consumption, and construction difficulty.
[0204] S25. Applying genetic algorithms: Genetic operations such as selection, crossover, and mutation are used to generate a new generation of layout schemes;

[0356] Specifically, the principle of this invention is:
[0357] The core technical idea of this invention's prefabricated building construction method without external scaffolding is to prefabricate and pre-assemble the protective support system during the prefabrication stage of component production, allowing it to be carried out simultaneously with the hoisting and installation of the main structure, thereby achieving scaffold-free construction. The key to this approach is to fully utilize the advantages of factory production to improve the controllability and integration of each critical link.
[0358] First, pre-installed bolts are precisely embedded during the prefabrication of components. The key to this step is converting the design parameters of the guardrail's detailed drawings, such as location and spacing, into CNC machining instructions using 3D modeling technology. This allows for the precise placement of bolt locators inside the prefabricated component mold, ensuring a perfect fit when the protective supports are installed later. This prefabrication method avoids the problem of the protective supports being disconnected from the main structure construction, a problem common in traditional methods, and lays the foundation for the overall installation of the subsequent protective system.
[0359] Secondly, protective supports are pre-installed on the prefabricated components. As the foundation of the entire protective system, the density and installation quality of these supports directly determine the stability and reliability of the system. This invention employs a combination of genetic algorithms and finite element analysis to establish a multi-objective optimization model. By balancing factors such as structural safety and economy, the optimal protective support layout scheme is derived. This numerical simulation-based design method not only improves the scientific rigor of the protective scheme but also lays the foundation for subsequent construction quality control.
[0360] Secondly, during the hoisting of the main structure, auxiliary equipment such as aerial work platforms are used to precisely position the prefabricated components with pre-installed protective supports. The key to this step lies in optimizing the hoisting path and controlling the posture of the components to ensure that the components can be stably installed in place, creating favorable preconditions for the subsequent construction of the protective system.
[0361] Subsequently, standardized protective poles, protective wire ropes, and protective plates are installed on the prefabricated components to form a multi-layered protection system. Key aspects such as the verticality adjustment of the protective poles, the tension control of the protective wire ropes, and the overlap design of the protective plates all fully utilize relevant mathematical modeling and algorithm optimization methods to ensure the stability and safety of the entire protection system.
[0362] Finally, after the construction work was completed, the entire protective system was dismantled in an orderly manner according to the established dismantling plan. During this process, the reusability of the protective components was fully considered, and corresponding maintenance measures were taken to maximize the recyclability advantages of the prefabricated components.
