The integrated hull block of this ship reaches a high industry standard, with the GA01 block successfully installed in place. This achievement builds on the solid foundation of early-stage modular outfitting, which integrates piping, electrical systems, and various equipment into a cohesive unit. It establishes an efficient closed-loop process of "precision prefabrication in workshops, holistic lifting and positioning, and rapid assembly on the slipway," fundamentally breaking through the traditional barriers in shipbuilding. Behind this "Wuhu Shipyard Speed" lies the innovative application and precise implementation of the inclined-slipway tandem construction method and modular prefabrication technology.
