Lu Hongwei, member of the Party Leadership Group and chief engineer of the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, said that the construction industry is a pillar industry, advantageous industry and a people-enriching industry in Jiangsu Province. It will achieve a total output value of 4.57 trillion yuan in 2023, accounting for 13.7% of the national proportion. In the future, Jiangsu Province will promote the high-quality development of the construction industry from three aspects: First, accelerate the development of intelligent construction, strengthen the cultivation of intelligent construction pilot enterprises and projects, expand the application scenarios of intelligent construction technology, and strive to build the core competitiveness of enterprises. Second, we actively help enterprises explore the market, encourage construction enterprises to enter the field of high-value-added infrastructure construction such as bridges and tunnels, rail transits, and port waterways, and continue to promote the construction industry to "go global". The third is to create a good market environment, strengthen contact services for key construction enterprises, accelerate the formulation of management measures for the construction industry's loan transfer funds, and alleviate the pressure on enterprises' loan transfer funds.
Zhao Feng, deputy secretary-general of the China Construction Industry Association, said that at present, the construction industry is facing great downward pressure and must transform and upgrade to industrialization, digitalization and greening. In terms of industrialization, we will promote prefabricated buildings, transfer a large number of on-site operations to factories, and gradually achieve high-quality and high-level "factory manufacturing and on-site assembly". In terms of greening, traditional building materials will be updated and iterated, and green buildings, ultra-low energy consumption buildings, and smart home products will be vigorously promoted to reduce energy consumption during the construction and operation and maintenance stages. In terms of digitalization, we will accelerate the deep integration of new generation information technology with traditional construction industries, accelerate the digital transformation of the construction industry, focus on promoting the integrated application of Internet technology in the construction field, accelerate the establishment of an Internet platform for the construction industry, and create an upgraded version of "Building in China".
Geng Yuhua, president of the Jiangsu Construction Industry Association, introduced that Jiangsu has always regarded high standards, high requirements, high efficiency and high quality as the "motto" of engineering project construction, strives to promote the coordinated development of intelligent construction and construction industrialization, continues to promote the application of intelligent construction technology, promote the transformation of the construction industry from traditional industries to modern industries, and promote the transformation of "Made in China" to "Construction in China". The Jiangsu Construction Industry Association insists on serving member development and serving high-quality construction as its focus, and continuously vigorously promotes the construction industry's "lean construction, digital construction, green construction, and prefabricated construction" through annual meetings, seminars, observations, and training, guiding member companies to implement reform and innovation, structural adjustment, quality improvement, and integrated development. In the future, it will continue to play the role of a bridge and link, accelerate the cultivation of new quality productivity in the construction industry, and help China's construction move forward steadily.
During the expert report session, Huang Wei shared the practice of Jiangsu Province in promoting regional coordinated development with urban system planning as a starting point. He mentioned that General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out during his inspection in Jiangsu that we must fully, accurately and comprehensively implement the new development concept, continue to be an example in reform and innovation and promoting high-quality development, strive to be a demonstration in serving the country to build a new development pattern, be at the forefront in taking the lead in realizing socialist modernization, strive to promote the new practice of Chinese-style modernization in Jiangsu, and write a new chapter in the "strong, prosperous, beautiful and high" new Jiangsu modernization construction. To implement the important instructions of General Secretary Xi Jinping, Jiangsu Province's planning is in line with the national urbanization policy, achieving comprehensive coverage of urban and rural space, full coverage of control detailed plans, and full coverage of major special plans, promoting the adjustment of administrative divisions, further promoting urban development, optimizing urban system structure, and continuing to gather towards the "three circles and five axes". Finally, he proposed that the requirements for urban development of Jiangsu Province's high-quality development include continuing to promote the construction of three modern metropolitan areas, innovation-driven industrial park efficiency improvement, and people-oriented provision of better public services.
Li Ting, a national engineering survey and design master, former Party Secretary and Chairman of Central South Architectural Design Institute, proposed that the main contradiction in building a "good house" is the contradiction between high quality and low cost. To build a good house, it is necessary to achieve industrialization, intelligence and green construction. The main contradiction of construction industrialization is the social division of labor separated from design and construction, and the large-scale parallel and efficient coordination with industrialization. The process must be reshaped and the organization must be reinvented. The key to intelligent construction lies in digital systems rather than physical systems. It is necessary to open up the digital system and drive the entire process with a single digital model to achieve "one-model to the end, no-figure construction, and full-process transparency", realize BIM quantitative visualization and human-computer reading, thereby creating a new paradigm for intelligent construction.
During the keynote speech session, Cheng Nengming, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of China Construction Technology East China Region, said that the new quality productivity is characterized by innovation, which is manifested in promoting the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries. China Construction Technology and Technology firmly follow the path of "science and technology" and build a "people's" city. With professional thinking, from manufacturing to intelligent manufacturing, we will build a steel structure intelligent factory and develop and sell intelligent robots; with engineering thinking, from construction to turnkey, we will form a series of products such as prefabricated campuses, residential, commercial offices, and industrial parks, and practice new models of urban renewal and industrial upstairs; with product thinking, from construction to products, we will launch innovative products such as "good houses", "good travel", and "good energy"; with industrial thinking, from enterprises to industries, extending to the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain, driving the high-quality development of the steel structure industry.
