On November 18, 2023, the review meeting for the China Engineering Construction Standardization Association standard “Technical Code for Seismic Walls of Multi‑cavity Steel Tube Concrete with Through‑Bolts” (hereinafter referred to as the “Code”), jointly compiled by Zhejiang Yuegong Steel Structure Co., Ltd. and Zhejiang University, was successfully held in Shaoxing, Zhejiang. Leaders from the China Engineering Construction Standardization Association, the Shaoxing Municipal Center for Promoting Building Industry Modernization, the Shaoxing Building Industry Modernization Development Alliance, members of the expert review panel, and representatives of the drafting team attended the meeting. Ren Qiliang, President of Yuegong Group, along with senior executives of Zhejiang Yuegong Steel Structure Co., Ltd., also participated. The meeting was chaired by Yu Haiqun, Secretary-General of the Steel Structure Professional Committee of the China Engineering Construction Standardization Association.
At the opening of the meeting, Hua Yuwu, Vice President of Yuegong Group, Vice Chairman and Chief Engineer of Zhejiang Yuegong Steel Structure Co., Ltd., delivered a welcome address and outlined the research and development efforts related to the Code, as well as the progress in translating these advancements into practical applications.
Director Han Jianqiang of the Shaoxing Municipal Center for Promoting the Modernization of the Construction Industry, Senior Engineer Zhang Hongyan of the China Association for Engineering Construction Standardization, and Secretary-General Yuan Xiawei of the Shaoxing Alliance for the Development of Construction Industry Modernization, among other leaders, attended the meeting and delivered remarks.
The meeting established a review expert panel chaired by Ren Qingying, a National Master of Engineering Survey and Design, with Zhou Jianlong serving as deputy chair. The panel comprises seven experts: Professor Wang Wei of Tongji University; Professor Hou Hetao of Shandong University; Chief Engineer Zeng Zhipan of Fujian Provincial Architectural Design Research Institute Co., Ltd.; Chief Engineer Jin Ruyuan of Jiangsu Provincial Architectural Design Research Institute Co., Ltd.; and Chief Engineer Jin Tiande of Hangzhou Urban Construction Design Research Institute Co., Ltd. Professor Tong Genshu of Zhejiang University, the chief editor of the document, provided a detailed report on the main research topics of the Code, the drafting process, and the handling of comments received. Additional clarifications were offered by members of the drafting team, including Professor Guo Yanlin of Tsinghua University; Master Wang Lijun of Huacheng Boyuan Engineering Technology Group Co., Ltd.; Chief Engineer Yang Xuelin of Zhejiang Provincial Architectural Design Research Institute; and Associate Professor Zhang Lei of the College of Civil Engineering at Zhejiang University.
The review panel carefully listened to the presentation and conducted a clause-by-clause examination of the standard’s content. Following thorough deliberation, the panel concluded that the Code is scientifically sound, highly practical, and well aligned with existing relevant standards. It also introduces an innovative design methodology for multi‑chamber steel‑tube concrete seismic walls with through-bolts, filling a domestic gap and refining the stability‑design approach for seismic walls. Overall, the document meets internationally advanced standards, and the panel unanimously approved its passage. The drafting group was requested to revise and refine the Code in accordance with the review comments and promptly prepare a draft for submission for approval.
Following the review and approval of the Regulations, Luo Yinchang, Executive Vice President of Yuegong Group and Chairman and General Manager of Zhejiang Yuegong Steel Structure Co., Ltd., delivered a thank-you address, expressing his gratitude to all the leaders for their presence and guidance, as well as to the experts for their diligent efforts.
