en.Wedoany.com Reported - On April 9th, Hyundai Elevator and GS Construction officially launched the joint development of modular elevators tailored for prefabricated apartments by signing a cooperation agreement at the Chungju Smart Campus in Korea. The two parties will integrate modular construction methods with detachable formwork technology, replacing the traditional on-site installation model with factory pre-integration.

This technological solution breaks through the installation constraints of traditional reinforced concrete structures. Through technical integration and in-depth R&D, the development team has incorporated the elevator shaft and car system into the building modules. This construction method can directly shorten the building construction cycle, improve process efficiency, and eliminate safety hazards associated with on-site high-altitude installation.

According to the project plan, the modular elevators developed by the two parties will first undergo pilot installation at the Siheung Geumo (A-1BL) construction site. As Korea's tallest steel structure modular apartment building, this project reaches a height of 14 stories. Hyundai Elevator plans to complete the validation of technical parameters and establish standardized operational procedures during this pilot project.

Jo Jae-cheon, a representative of Hyundai Elevator, stated that modular technology will introduce a new paradigm to the construction industry. Through the cooperation with GS Construction, this project will collect actual operational data within the 14-story building, verifying the precision performance of the modular system in vertical transportation, thereby providing data support for the future promotion of modular elevators in larger-scale residential areas.
