Abstract:

With the rapid development of prefabricated buildings, using the existing system to manage prefabricated buildings faces the challenge of changing climates in cold areas. This paper analyzes the construction characteristics and the unique challenge in cold area for the purpose of improving existing tools, techniques and quality management system. Through the comparison between traditional contracting mode and proposed Quality Management and Safety Evaluation System (EPC), the advantages of EPC general contracting mode of prefabricated building are validated based on the aspects of quality, schedule, cost and safety. This paper demonstrates the necessity and reliability of popularizing and applying Quality Management and Safety Evaluation System for prefabricated building projects, and in particular, an improved theoretical basis for promoting the application of EPC general contracting mode of prefabricated buildings in cold regions.

Key words: quality control, changing climatic, software engineering, prefabricated buildings
