Resuming Work and Production: The Yuong Family Fights the Epidemic Together
Fighting the epidemic is everyone’s responsibility—kudos to Yuegong’s exemplary heroes in this battle. From company leaders to departmental staff, from Party members and cadres to ordinary employees, everyone is stepping up and making their contribution. By controlling sources, plugging loopholes, eliminating blind spots, and ensuring thorough implementation, they are working tirelessly to decisively win the fight against the epidemic. In this effort, a number of outstanding individuals have emerged—true role models in Yuegong’s anti‑epidemic campaign and a source of pride for all: At headquarters, daily epidemic prevention tasks are handled by rotating teams from Zhejiang Company’s departments. These colleagues take turns performing duties such as guarding checkpoints, conducting temperature screenings, and disinfecting premises, contributing their small but meaningful efforts to safeguard the health and safety of all employees. During the Spring Festival, Zhao Yiliu from the General Affairs Department of Zhejiang Company lost his father. At the same time, the company issued a notice allowing applications to resume work, requiring preparations for epidemic prevention and inspection. Despite his profound grief, he resolutely threw himself into the frontline of epidemic control, working alongside his colleagues to do everything possible to win this battle. When the Group learned that epidemic prevention supplies were in short supply—especially masks, which were extremely difficult to procure and could jeopardize both the company’s resumption of operations and employee safety—Tang Genmei, Ma Li, Chen Jian, Wang Zhongyou, Wang Qixiong, and others actively reached out to various channels to secure essential items, thereby creating favorable conditions for the smooth resumption of work. Lou Miaojiang from the Machinery Company, along with Zhang Shaojiong and Jin Guanghua from Zhejiang Company, volunteered to join village committees and community-level epidemic prevention efforts. Whether manning checkpoints, maintaining order, or processing entry permits, they wholeheartedly conveyed the spirit of solidarity in fighting the pandemic, fully demonstrating the exemplary role of Communist Party members and becoming an important line of defense in the battle against the virus. In Shandong, similar volunteer activities were also underway. Gao Guo, manager of Yuegong’s Marketing Department, and his wife worked together to take shifts at the community’s epidemic prevention post before the company resumed operations. Despite long hours on duty and freezing weather, their determination to contribute to epidemic control remained unwavering. After several consecutive days of service, they received unanimous praise from leaders of Yushan Subdistrict and had their inspiring story shared on the “Zhangshang Pingyin” WeChat platform, earning widespread recognition from the public. Departmental staff stepped up to support frontline production, while workshop operations continued smoothly. Although the company has officially resumed work, due to the ongoing impact of the epidemic, most of the first wave of returning employees were administrative personnel from various departments. Frontline manufacturing workers, largely residing in other provinces or cities, were unable to return. On the first day of work, February 17, only 15 employees reported to Zhejiang Company’s production workshops, leaving production organization severely disrupted and preventing normal operations. The conditions for restarting production were thus greatly constrained. In response, the company launched an initiative encouraging departmental managers to voluntarily take temporary posts on the shop floor to help sustain production during this critical period. The call was met with enthusiastic support from department heads, and within days, more than 20 departmental managers were regularly reporting to the workshops. Among them were seasoned mid-level managers with extensive experience in production and quality control, newly hired employees who had never worked on the shop floor, and even veteran workers nearing retirement who accepted the challenge. Despite their diverse backgrounds, all demonstrated remarkable enthusiasm and commitment to supporting the company’s orderly resumption of production. The Manufacturing Department carefully assigned temporary roles—such as quality inspection, material preparation, assembly, and drilling—based on each individual’s skills and experience. With guidance and assistance from senior workshop technicians, these temporary workers diligently completed their assigned tasks, strengthening camaraderie among colleagues while acquiring new professional skills. Starting February 20, workshop capacity has recovered to over 50%, and production is now proceeding in an orderly manner. Heartwarming donations convey genuine care in the fight against the epidemic. In accordance with the decisions and arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and local Party committees and governments, the Group Party Committee responded swiftly and fulfilled its responsibilities. On February 28, it issued a donation appeal to all Party members, urging branch organizations across the company to mobilize Party members to participate in charitable contributions. In just over two days, a total of 7,580 yuan was raised, with 54 Party members taking part in the donation drive. Additionally, Zhejiang Company donated 20,000 yuan to the Donghu Chamber of Commerce, demonstrating corporate responsibility through concrete actions and contributing to the fight against the epidemic. In Shandong, Gao Guo and Li Yanpu generously donated 4,000 yuan in cash to the Pingyin County Charity Federation, along with approximately 10,000 yuan worth of protective supplies—including tents, masks, cotton coats, instant noodles, and disinfectant solutions. “Though mountains and rivers may separate us, we share the same sky and moon.” Mr. Takagi Kazuaki, a former Japanese shareholder of the company, currently residing in Japan, learned of China’s severe COVID‑19 situation and the urgent need for masks as the company prepared to resume operations. Undeterred by his advanced age, he promptly procured 2,000 masks in Japan and donated them to Yuegong. His deep affection for Yuegong deserves our highest respect and heartfelt gratitude, and it will undoubtedly strengthen the resolve of all Yuegong employees to overcome the epidemic and rise to future challenges.

On November 16, 2019, the “Through-Bolt Multi-Cavity Steel Tube Concrete Seismic Wall Steel Structure Residential System” (hereafter referred to as the Bolt–Tube Concrete System), developed by Zhejiang Yuegong Steel Structure Co., Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Yuegong Group, successfully passed expert appraisal, with its scientific and technological achievements reaching an internationally advanced level. Experts on the Appraisal Committee R&D Team and Company Leaders This scientific and technological achievement appraisal meeting was organized by the Zhejiang Provincial Technology Broker Association. The appraisal committee comprised renowned experts and scholars, including Wang Lijun, Chief Expert at Huacheng Boyuan Engineering Technology Group and National Master of Survey and Design; Professor Guo Yanlin from Tsinghua University; Yu Yinquan, Chief Engineer at the China Academy of Building Research Standards and a National Master of Survey and Design; Fang Xiaodan, Chief Engineer at the South China University of Technology Architectural Design Institute and a National Master of Survey and Design; Yang Xuelin, Chief Engineer at the Zhejiang Provincial Architectural Design Institute; Xiao Zhibin, Chief Engineer at the Zhejiang University Architectural Design Institute; and Xing Guoran, Chief Engineer at Zhejiang Zhongcheng Construction Group, among others. Key leaders of Yuegong Holding Group, along with Professor Tong Genshu of Zhejiang University, Dr. Wang Yanchao and Dr. Fu Bo from Timoshenko Architectural Structural Design Office, as well as Luo Yinchang, Chairman of Zhejiang Yuegong Steel Structure Co., Ltd., General Manager Hua Yuwu, Deputy General Manager in charge of green building Chen Jian, and Green Building Department Manager Jin Feng—representing the principal R&D personnel—also attended the meeting. Guests present included Lou Bing and Jin Jian, leaders of the Zhejiang Province Steel Structure Industry Association, and Zhang Yu, Chairman of the Shaoxing Alliance for Modernization of the Construction Industry, among others. Members of the Appraisal Committee The appraisal committee reviewed technical summaries, component test reports, and novelty search findings related to the Bolt–Tube Concrete System, examined relevant sample materials, and after thorough questioning and discussion, unanimously concluded that the system is easy to fabricate and highly prefabricated. Its seismic wall components, assembled from standardized elements such as through-bolts, cold-formed channel steel, and steel tubes, form an innovative steel plate composite seismic wall system. Ultimately, the committee determined that the research results have reached an internationally advanced level and approved the system’s acceptance. [Introduction to the Bolt–Tube Concrete System] Zhejiang Yuegong Steel Structure Co., Ltd. appointed Professor Tong Genshu of Zhejiang University as its Chief Technical Advisor and entered into a long-term strategic cooperation agreement with Timoshenko Architectural Design Office. Collaborating with the firm’s distinguished team of doctoral experts, who possess extensive experience in engineering design and research development, the company successfully developed the “Through-Bolt Multi-Cavity Steel Tube Concrete Seismic Wall Structural Residential System” (referred to as the Bolt–Tube Concrete System), which boasts independent intellectual property rights. This system offers flexible architectural layouts, comfortable interior spaces, clear structural load paths, excellent component performance, straightforward steel fabrication, and a high degree of standardization, making it suitable for multi- and high-rise steel‑frame residential buildings. The system relies on bolt–tube concrete seismic walls, steel columns, steel beams, and prefabricated reinforced steel floor slabs to jointly bear vertical loads and resist lateral seismic forces. Its envelope system comprises prefabricated interior partitions, prefabricated insulated exterior walls, fireproof insulation layers, and exterior wall coatings. Additionally, it incorporates prefabricated utility piping systems and prefabricated finishing systems, collectively forming a fully prefabricated steel structure residential product. At the heart of the system lies the bolt–tube concrete seismic wall, composed of cold-formed steel tubes, cold-formed channel steel, connecting bolts, and corner square steel sections. Two cold-formed channel steels are arranged back-to-back, connected by regularly spaced through-bolts to form a pair; each pair alternates with cold-formed steel tubes, creating a linear multi-cavity steel tube wall. Depending on the component’s location and the wall’s orientation, corner square steel sections can be used to form various cross-sectional shapes, such as L‑shaped, T‑shaped, or cross‑shaped configurations. After filling the cavities with concrete, these assemblies become bolt–tube concrete seismic walls.
To deepen the study of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era and fully implement the spirit of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, as well as the Second, Third, and Fourth Plenary Sessions of the 19th CPC Central Committee, and to enrich the thematic education campaign “Remain True to Our Original Aspiration and Keep Our Mission Firmly in Mind,” on November 2, 2019, Comrade Luo Yinchang, Executive Vice President of the Group and Chairman of Shandong Company, together with Comrade Chen Kuanli, Secretary of the Party Branch and General Manager of Shandong Yuegong Steel Components Co., Ltd., led a delegation of 25 members—including all Party members, prospective Party members, union committee members, Youth League branch secretaries, and mid‑level and senior managers—to visit the Jiao Yulu Memorial Hall in Lankao, Longting Park, and Kaifeng Prefecture for study and reflection. Departing at 7:20 a.m., the group sang revolutionary songs with great enthusiasm along the way. At 10:30 a.m., they arrived at the Jiao Yulu Memorial Hall. In front of the martyr’s tomb, the Party Branch of Shandong Company held a solemn ceremony to pay tribute and deeply commemorate this exemplary Communist Party member who dedicated his entire life to the Party and the people. General Managers Luo and Chen laid wreaths at the memorial, and all participants bowed three times before the portrait of Comrade Jiao Yulu. Following this, General Manager Chen led all Party members in solemnly raising their right hands toward the bright Party flag and reaffirming their oath of admission. Laying of wreaths Solemn oath-taking Next, the group visited the Jiao Yulu Memorial Hall, where the docent vividly recounted one touching story after another about Comrade Jiao Yulu’s remarkable deeds during his lifetime. Photographs, written records, and artifacts displayed throughout the hall brought to life his moving acts of governance in Lankao—tackling the “three scourges”—as well as his noble spirit of serving the people, working hard, seeking truth from facts, facing difficulties head‑on, and selflessly dedicating himself to the cause. The exhibition highlighted both the ordinary yet extraordinary nature of Comrade Jiao Yulu. Participants listened attentively, observed quietly, and reflected deeply, truly appreciating his dedication as a public servant and learning from his close connection with the people, his tenacity in tackling work, and his relentless drive to accomplish great things. Through his concrete actions, Comrade Jiao Yulu forged an inspiring image of an outstanding Communist Party member, giving rise to the invaluable “Jiao Yulu Spirit” and providing a vivid lesson in ideological education for all Party members. At 1:00 p.m., the group proceeded to the “Jiao Tong” tree—a symbol of the Jiao Yulu Spirit. The young paulownia saplings personally planted by Comrade Jiao Yulu decades ago have now grown into towering trees, affectionately known as the “Jiao Tong.” Together, they revisited and heard stories of how Comrade Jiao Yulu, despite suffering from a serious illness, led the county in combating wind and sand while sincerely striving to retain talented individuals. They were profoundly moved by his indomitable spirit of “daring to remake the heavens and earth,” experiencing firsthand his courage in overcoming hardships and his unwavering determination. At the old Yellow River course in Dongbatou, along Zhangzhuang Village’s “Happiness Road,” they gained an even more direct sense of the dramatic transformations that Lankao County has undergone in recent years under the guidance of the Jiao Yulu Spirit. On November 3, accompanied by General Manager Lou of the Kaifeng Real Estate Company and others, the group entered Kaifeng to experience the charm of this renowned historical and cultural city. They visited Longting Park to see the 37th Chrysanthemum Exhibition and then toured the Kaifeng Prefecture Scenic Area. The five‑character poem expressing the aspirations of Bao Zheng, a historical figure embodying fairness, justice, and integrity, left a deep impression on everyone. This educational visit proved to be an exceptionally vivid exercise in Party‑spirit cultivation. It profoundly cleansed and uplifted the minds of all participants, deeply stirred their souls, and rekindled their convictions. Inspired by Comrade Jiao Yulu, they resolved to vigorously learn from and carry forward the Jiao Yulu Spirit, strengthen their Party character, remain true to their original aspiration and keep their mission firmly in mind, fortify their ideals and beliefs, enhance their sense of responsibility and service, and improve their ability to fulfill their duties conscientiously. Moreover, the event further strengthened cohesion and combat effectiveness among all departments centered around the Party Branch, laying a solid ideological foundation for a vigorous push during the fourth quarter and the comprehensive achievement of the company’s annual goals and tasks.

Shandong Company Held Its Third-Quarter Economic Performance Review Meeting.
At 9:00 a.m. on October 12, 2019, Shandong Company convened its third-quarter economic performance review meeting. All mid-level and senior managers attended, with the meeting chaired by Vice President Wang Ming. Luo Yinchang, Executive Vice President of the Group and Chairman of Shandong Company, also participated and delivered an important address. The meeting commenced with department heads presenting summaries of their third-quarter achievements and outlining plans for the fourth quarter. General Manager Chen Kuanli used both text and visuals to analyze key economic indicators for the quarter, highlighting notable successes while identifying major challenges and proposing priorities for the upcoming period. In his commentary on recent departmental performance, General Manager Chen commended each unit’s efforts while candidly pointing out existing issues: in marketing, order intake remained uneven, with significant disparities in individual sales representatives’ results—some lagging far behind; moreover, maintaining steady, consistent order flow proved difficult, leading to occasional bottlenecks in delivery and periods when business was scarce. In production management, 6S practices required further enhancement, emphasizing that effective management must balance adherence to established standards with innovation—continuous improvement is essential, and complacency has no place. Management should not be confined solely to labor discipline but should also strengthen employees’ professional skills and moral education. To boost output and expand capacity, it is crucial to identify weak links, resolve constraints, and ensure concrete implementation, striving for incremental improvements month after month and sustained progress year after year. All cadres and employees were urged to strictly observe labor discipline, cultivate a strong sense of compliance, and enhance their service orientation. Each manager must align themselves ideologically, consciously, and professionally with the company’s development trajectory, adopting a proper work ethic, staying true to their original aspirations, and diligently fulfilling their responsibilities. By ensuring strict adherence to directives and smooth communication of policies, they can bolster execution capabilities, enabling the company to advance all operations efficiently and effectively, generate greater value, provide enhanced benefits to employees, and realize the corporate vision of “A Happier Yuangong, A Higher-Quality Yuangong,” thus helping to bring the Yuangong dream to life. Following this, Chairman Luo Yinchang delivered a significant address on Shandong Company’s third-quarter performance. He commended the company’s solid operational results and expressed encouragement, while also extending gratitude to all cadres and employees for their hard work and to the leadership team led by General Manager Chen for their support and collaboration. Chairman Luo carefully analyzed gaps in production targets and outlined key tasks for the future: First, all company personnel are expected to continue upholding the authority of the leadership team headed by General Manager Chen, strengthening their sense of the bigger picture, service orientation, and obedience. He advocated for tiered management, standardized procedures, and process‑driven governance, urging leaders to adopt a high‑level perspective, clearly define direction and objectives, and implement practical measures to ensure the successful fulfillment of all annual economic targets set by the Group. Second, contingent upon improved company profitability, he proposed appropriately raising employee compensation next year—particularly base salaries for new hires—to facilitate recruitment efforts, attract more talent, and bolster the company’s long-term growth and succession planning. Finally, through the company’s WeChat group, Chairman Luo shared “20 Quotes from Wang Yangming’s School of Mind.” Before concluding the meeting, Vice President Wang led participants in studying an initiative issued by the Zhejiang Company Party Branch to all party members: “Fight Hard in the Fourth Quarter and Strive Vigorously to Fully Achieve the Company’s Annual Goals.” He further instructed all attendees to hold themselves to party-member standards, staying committed to their duties and embodying their original aspirations and mission.

Everyone pledged to adhere to the overarching principles of the thematic education campaign—“stay true to our original aspiration, shoulder our mission, identify gaps, and ensure implementation”—working diligently and striving vigorously to fulfill the company’s annual goals. In closing, these activities have expressed the patriotic spirit of Yuegong employees, showcased their positive outlook, and inspired them to remain true to their original aspirations, uphold their mission, continue fostering a pioneering and pragmatic work ethic, and steadily enhance their sense of happiness and fulfillment.
Unafraid of Adversity, Steadfast in Duty — A Chronicle of the Maintenance Center’s Work
The sweltering summer has passed, yet its lingering heat remains, and Shaoxing has now entered “post‑modern barbecue mode.” With the weather dry and mosquitoes and flies multiplying, nothing can dampen the work enthusiasm of the frontline staff at Yuegong Mechanical Maintenance Center. Engineers Liang and Song are among the center’s technical pillars. Over the past few days, the two have been shuttling between multiple locations with trainee maintenance worker Xiao Shen, carrying out equipment upkeep—often for several hours at a stretch—steadfastly holding the line to ensure top‑notch maintenance and safeguard the parking safety of the public. “Fatigue and hardship mean little to us,” Engineer Liang said firmly, wiping beads of sweat from his face. “At my age, this is precisely the time to support myself through hard work—I certainly don’t want to endure more suffering in my later years. In this scorching heat, it’s not only a grueling test of endurance under the blazing sun, but also a true trial of my perseverance, stamina, and professional skills.” Around him, the occasional buzz of mosquitoes filled the air; though these insects were already “grasshoppers after autumn,” his arms were still covered with clusters of swollen bites. Despite the unbearable itch, he adhered scrupulously to the company’s maintenance procedures, conducting meticulous inspections of the garage without the slightest slack. Working on the second floor of the garage, where beneath his feet lay only a thin support board, one couldn’t help but worry for him. “My job may look a bit daunting to outsiders, but our group always puts employee safety first and provides ample protective gear. As long as I follow the instructions for using that equipment, I can significantly reduce the risk of accidents. I truly love this work and take great pride in it,” he added. Not far away, Engineer Song was inspecting the electrical panel wiring. The multi‑level parking garage’s electrical boxes feature intricate layouts, where even the smallest error in the sequence of wire connections could prove disastrous. Beads of sweat streamed down his cheeks as he wiped them away with his shirt. “Maintenance conditions may seem simple—even if the peak of the heat is behind us—the bottled water I carry gets scalding hot!” With countless wires to manage, Song showed no sign of impatience, fully focused on the task at hand. “To outsiders, my job might appear easy and monotonous, but that’s far from the truth. We bear a heavy responsibility: installing those electrical circuits is a job that demands deep thought and unwavering dedication. A single mistake could cause unnecessary harm to society, so I must take full accountability for the safety of countless families’ lives and property,” he explained, embodying an attitude of utmost diligence and precision. Meanwhile, trainee maintenance worker Xiao Shen assisted with ancillary tasks. The blazing sun had tanned his skin deeply, yet he paid it no mind, occasionally handing water and wiping sweat from his seniors’ brows. Though newly hired this year, Xiao Shen never used his status as a newcomer as an excuse to slack off; instead, he stood firmly on the front lines of maintenance. “Working as an intern at Yuegong is my first step into the workforce after leaving school. I’m determined to throw myself wholeheartedly into the job—not just to do my duties well, but also to build experience and broaden my horizons for the future,” he said with a simple, boyish smile. It was clear that choosing Yuegong for his very first job made Xiao Shen truly happy. “We’ve grown accustomed to it,” Engineer Liang remarked. “No matter what the external conditions may be, this is simply our duty at the maintenance center.” They remain steadfast at their posts, working selflessly to ensure the safe parking of vehicles for the public.
To strengthen international cooperation and exchanges in the construction industry, accelerate high-quality urban development nationwide, promote the transformation and upgrading of the construction sector, expedite the shift from old to new growth drivers, and expand Shaoxing’s influence as a leading construction city—thereby supporting its industrial transformation and overseas expansion strategy—the inaugural Jianhu Forum concluded successfully in Shaoxing, Zhejiang on September 20. The forum was guided by the Shaoxing Municipal People’s Government and the Architectural Society of China, co-hosted by the Building and Energy Conservation Professional Committee of the Chinese Urban Science Research Association, the Shaoxing Municipal Housing and Urban–Rural Development Bureau, the Shaoxing Municipal Science and Technology Association, and the Yuecheng District People’s Government of Shaoxing, and jointly organized by Huahui Construction Group, Zhejiang Yuegong Steel Structure Co., Ltd., Zhejiang Shunjiang Construction Group, and other entities. A distinguished group of leaders and experts—including Academician Xu Ronglie of the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences and former Chief Engineer of the Ministry of Construction; former Vice Minister of Construction Song Chunhua; Chinese Academy of Engineering Academicians Xiao Xuwén and Gong Xiaonan; Foreign Academician Wu Faquan of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences; President of the Architectural Society of China Xiu Long; Chairman Yuan Jianhua of Huahui Engineering Design Group Co., Ltd.; Chairman Luo Yinchang of Zhejiang Yuegong Steel Structure Co., Ltd.; and General Manager Hua Yuwu—along with over 300 renowned domestic scholars, government officials, and corporate representatives, gathered in Shaoxing, Zhejiang. Centered around the forum theme “Green Construction, Better Life,” they engaged in in-depth discussions and exchanges from an international perspective, focusing on key industry trends such as prefabricated construction, smart buildings, and green building practices. Ma Weiguang, Secretary of the CPC Shaoxing Municipal Committee; Jiang Changcai, Vice Chairman of the Zhejiang Provincial Association for Science and Technology; and Lu Wei, Member of the Standing Committee and Secretary-General of the CPC Shaoxing Municipal Committee, attended the event. The forum was chaired by Sun Zejun, Vice Mayor of the Shaoxing Municipal People’s Government. In 2019, China’s Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development selected seven provinces nationwide to launch pilot projects for prefabricated steel‑structure residential construction. With advantages in architectural performance, resource conservation, and reduced labor costs, prefabricated steel‑structure buildings have become a market focal point. Driven by supportive policies, the combination of steel structures and residential construction is opening up vast possibilities for this innovative approach. In the future, prefabricated steel‑structure housing is expected to emerge as the mainstream development trend. As one of China’s leading steel structure enterprises, Yuegong Steel Structure has consistently upheld the principles of green development over many years, vigorously promoted new construction methods, and advanced the transformation and upgrading of the construction industry, contributing significantly to the growth of prefabricated steel‑structure housing in China. As a co-organizer of this forum, Yuegong Steel Structure was invited to share its research and practical experience in prefabricated steel‑structure residential construction through a special presentation delivered by Chen Jian, Deputy General Manager of Zhejiang Yuegong Steel Structure Co., Ltd. [Introduction to the Bolt–Tube Concrete Seismic Wall System] Yuegong Steel Structure has appointed Professor Tong Genshu of Zhejiang University as its Chief Technical Advisor and entered into a long-term strategic partnership with the Timoshenko Architectural Design Firm. Collaborating with the firm’s team of highly qualified doctoral researchers—possessing extensive experience in engineering design and scientific research—the company has successfully developed a proprietary seismic wall system known as the “Bolt–Tube Concrete Seismic Wall System.” This innovative system features flexible architectural layouts, comfortable interior spaces, clear structural load paths, excellent component performance, simplified steel fabrication processes, and a high degree of standardization, making it well-suited for multi‑story and high‑rise steel‑frame residential buildings. The system integrates bolt–tube concrete seismic walls, steel columns, steel beams, and prefabricated reinforced steel floor slabs to collectively bear vertical loads and resist lateral seismic forces. Its envelope system comprises prefabricated interior partitions, insulated exterior walls, fireproof insulation layers, and exterior coatings. Additionally, the system incorporates prefabricated utility piping networks and modular interior finishing systems, forming a complete prefabricated steel‑frame residential product. At the heart of this system lies the bolt–tube concrete seismic wall, composed of cold‑formed steel tubes, cold‑formed steel channels, connecting bolts, and corner square steel sections. Two opposing cold‑formed steel channels are joined by regularly spaced through-bolts, creating alternating pairs that interlace with cold‑formed steel tubes to form linear multi‑cavity steel walls. Depending on the location of each component and the orientation of the wall, corner square steel sections can be configured into L‑shaped, T‑shaped, cross‑shaped, or other custom profiles. After filling these cavities with concrete, the resulting structure becomes a bolt–tube concrete seismic wall.
